Abstract

With Thomas Bradwardine¹ we return to the domain of theology, for Bradwardine is above all a theologian. What preoccupies him is not the problem of the world but the conditions of salvation; the cosmological structure of the Universe and even its ontological structure interest him only insofar as his study sheds light on the being of man and of God.²
