Scotus' Departure from Anselm's Theory of the Atonement

In the first part of this paper, I analyze Anselm's attempt in Cur Deus Homo to justify the Atonement by showing that his discussion can be organized around three principles: satisfaction, symmetry, and ransom. In the second part, I explore Scotus' comments on the philosophical puzzles of...

520 |a In the first part of this paper, I analyze Anselm's attempt in Cur Deus Homo to justify the Atonement by showing that his discussion can be organized around three principles: satisfaction, symmetry, and ransom. In the second part, I explore Scotus' comments on the philosophical puzzles of the Incarnation and Atonement. I emphasize that his analysis of the hypostatic union causes him to regard Christ's sacrifice as finite and not intrinsically salvific for mankind. In the third part, I argue that Scotus' emphasis on the finite nature of Christ's sacrifice is a rejection of Anselm's principle of symmetry. Moreover, I claim that, as a voluntarist, Scotus also rejects Anselm's principle as restricting God's free choice.
