Descrizione

In the speculative project of Periphyseon, Eriugena sought to complete a ‘systematic’ description of the whole of reality (universitas), in relation with the full semantic extension of the term natura. Within this term one must include every res: from the first uncaused Cause, to the primordial causes, which are both eternal and created, to the finite effects. Eriugena entrusted the task of reconstructing this complex framework to the most refined tools of rationality: the liberal arts (above all dialectica), which reflect the order of reality; a theory of knowledge, which accentuates the organizing role of the knowing subject; the hierarchical conception of potency and act and the fulfillment of history in the restoration of the original entelechia. Only a proper understanding of these tools allows to define adequately the historical-speculative position of Eriugena’s work in the context of early medieval thought and thereby its correct relationship with the Platonic-Augustinian theoretical paradigm (vera philosophia).
