Buenaventura: la correspondencia entre verdad y belleza en Breviloquium, I, 6

Abstract

Based on the reflections proposed by Bonaventure in Breviloquium, I, 6, the transcendental concepts unity, truth and goodness can be thought about as a result of the different internal relationships of non-division in being. These “high noble and high extensive conditions of being”, as they are called by Buenaventura, are presented in the text as divine appropriations and for that triadic reason the beauty is not included. However, it is mentioned in the form of an essential correspondence between truth and beauty. In this way, the beauty involves a formal quality of intrinsic truth, which allows it to transmit both sensorial and intellectual perception the frame of the intimate structure of the world. This paper indicates the deductive and symbolic instances of this participated beauty
