The Catholic Tradition Podcast: 149 – Duns Scotus, Minstrel of the Incarnation


Dec 13, 2022

Blessed John Duns Scotus (1265-1308), the Franciscan friar recognized
because the “Delicate Physician”, is without doubt one of the most necessary theologians
and philosophers of the Center Ages, but over the centuries he has
fallen into disrepute, or a minimum of neglect, by comparability with the
“Angelic Physician”, St. Thomas Aquinas.

Curiosity in Scotus has revived considerably partially attributable to his
beatification by Pope St. John Paul II, who known as him the
“defender of the Immaculate Conception” and “minstrel of the
Incarnation”.

Certainly, Scotus’s biggest legacy is his argument for Mary’s
having been conceived with out authentic sin, a controversial
place on the time, but vindicated centuries later when this was
proclaimed a dogma by Pope Bl. Pius IX. That is adequate cause
to get to know Scotus, even when he finally takes a again seat to
Aquinas.

Thomas Ward, creator of Ordered by Love: An Introduction to
John Duns Scotus
, joins the podcast to debate elements of
Scotus’s thought, and his context within the early historical past of the
Franciscan order.
