Why Aristotle? Patterns in Renaissance philosophy

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Philoponus played an important role in the Renaissance debate on Aristotelian philosophy. As an introduction to this topic, this chapter asks: Why did fifteenth- and sixteenth-century philosophers study the works of Aristotle? This chapter makes two points: (1) no discourse on Aristotelianism can avoid comparison with Platonism – which is the first reason to invite Philoponus; and (2) the gap between Aristotle as a moralist and as a scientist should be accounted for. A look at some editions, introductions and other programmatic statements on Aristotle shows how Renaissance scholars viewed his role and philosophy, and how Philoponus is referred to in this framework. In Bruni, Vives and Melanchthon, the focus is on ethics and contemporary educational policy. Gemusaeus, Acciaiuoli and Feliciano focus on the method of studying nature. Agrippa von Nettesheim, Lambertus de Monte, Steuchus and Liceti rediscuss the compatibility of Aristotle and Christianity. Balduinus, Fracastoro and Aquarius show how Aristotelianism is transformed in the schools towards modern philosophy; finally, Patrizi historicizes Aristotle and takes him as the fulcrum for a new, individualized philosophy. Using Aristotle as a test case, we see the evolution from school philosophy to methodological, empirical, rational and controversial philosophy. The rediscovery of Philoponus should be understood precisely within these coordinates.
