Abstract

SANCHEZ MARTINEZ, César Félix. The Baroque Adventure of Being: Towards the Radical Reasons of Francisco Suárez’s Metaphysics. Letras [online]. 2018, vol.89, n.130, pp.24-50. ISSN 2071-5072.  http://dx.doi.org/10.30920/letras.89.130.2.

The thought of Francisco Suárez (1548-1617), essential when stud- ying the reception by the philosophical modernity of the scholastic tradition and whose influence would become very great, is still the subject of controversy and even incomprehension. Incoherent or mag- nificent? Modern or traditional? Scotist or Thomist? In this article, after presenting the main features of his system -and the critical points of view-, an original theory will be formulated explaining the reasons for its complexity in the cognitive and cultural horizon of his time.

Keywords : Francisco Suárez; Doctor Eximius; Scholasticism; Metaphyisics; Baroque.
