AGOSTINI, Igor. Notes on Jean-Luc Marion’s contribution on the study of the notion of prima philosophia in Descartes and the scholasticism. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2016, vol.30, suppl., pp.133-149. ISSN 1982-596x. https://doi.org/10.14393/REVEDFIL.issn.0102-6801.v30nEspeciala2016-p133a149.
This article addresses the enquiry devoted by Jean-Luc Marion in his many works and, in particular, in Sur le prisme métaphysique de Descartes (1986), to Descartes’s conception of Metaphysics considered in connection to scholasticism. The aim is to demonstrate that Marion’s researches constitue in Cartesian scholarship one of the main contributions to the study of the relationships between Descartes and Scholasticism. At the same time, the article discusses and reconsiders Marion’s claim that Descartes’s choice of the term philosophia prima for the title if his Meditationes would go to the detriment of the term metaphysica.
Keywords : Descartes; Jean-Luc Marion; Scholasticism; Metaphysica; Philosophia Prima.
