Pearce, Spencer, "Nature and supernature in the dialogues of Girolamo Fracastoro", Sixteenth Century Journal, 27/1 (1996), 111-132.
- Resum
- Fracastoro attempts in his dialogues to construct a philosophical anthropology in which mankind's supernatural vocation may be accommodated within the rational framework of a philosophy of nature frankly mechanistic in its tendencies. Just as human nature realizes the promise enshrined in the lower orders of creation, so the immortal soul is the fulfillment of potentialities latent in human nature itself. This fulfillment, while entirely consonant with the most general principles which govern the natural order of things, is gratuitous in the theological sense of dependent on God's grace. Though gratuitous, it is not adventitious; for it has its source in a human being, conceived of in accordance with Ficino's doctrine of the exemplar or first in its kind. This being is Christ, who in his person realizes the fullness of the human capacity for the divine life and makes it available to the rest of humankind.
