| Summary: | The research focuses on the Platonism of Bessarione together with the consequent repercussions on the Filioque problem at the Council of Florence (1439). The hypothesis of the prolonged and sterile debate on the Filioque in this council seems to be placed in Platonism, marked by a rationality that is typically Western, very distant, and is the second aspect of this research; from the substantially mystical nature of Platonism in Bonaventure struggling to the same problem but with a very different result in the Council of Lyon in 1274. In short, it is a matter of answering the following question: how is it that Bessarione fails to overcome the doctrinal disagreements about the Filioque, while Bonaventure, two centuries earlier, had achieved the aim of reaching a substantial communion between the two Churches? The answer which is attempted here, is that Bessarione is an Easterner [of the Eastern Church] whose doctrinal formation has taken a clearly Western turn; Bonaventure, on the other hand, is a Westerner [of the Western Church] whose philosophical-theological perspective has a profoundly Franciscan soul, that is both Eastern and Western. Therefore the results of the research: 1. Platonism that unites and 2. Platonism that opposes Bessarione to Bonaventure; 3. The repercussions of these two versions on the articulation of the theological horizon within which the problem of the Filioque discussed in the Councils: first at Lyon and then Florence. (English) |
