The aim of the paper is twofold. First, to present the position of the Master of Arts John of Jandun (d. 1328) on the relationship between the metaphysical and the political; and second, to show how his solution, based on the idea of an agency “in second intention,” makes him a follower of Averroes and, more remotely, of Alexander of Aphrodisias’s doctrine on providence. Although the philosopher must play a key role in the city-state as the prince’s teacher on divine truths, this role does not make him a subordinate in any way, because he is turned towards others only in secunda intentione. How does John of Jandun flesh this out? And what does he owe to the metaphysical providence defended by his Greek and Arabic predecessors? These are the issues the paper deals with.

In his commnentary on the Sentences (book II, dist. XVII, q. 1), doubtless read at Paris between 1335 and 1337, Thomas de Strasbourg († 1357) contests in a dense and singular fashion the noetic of Averroes and the Averroists. His reading depends at once upon two figures. First, Giles of Rome, who denounces in the theory of the continuatio a feature that makes of the image the second subject-substrate of the intelligible. Second, Durandus of Saint-Pourçain, who with Hervé Nédellec, opposes to the Commentator a novel perspective of the subject applied to man. This paper studies this theoretical pro-duction as it bears witness to the dynamism of the quarrel over Averroism and which enlists Thomas of Strasbourg in this long chronicle in which the modern notion of sub-jectivity is worked out.

L'article examine la reprise que le « prince des Averroïstes » Jean de Jandun (ca. 1285–1328) fait de cette phrase délicate d'Averroès, tirée de son Grand Commentaire du De anima d'Aristote : « forte igitur philosophia invenitur in maiori parte subiecti in omni tempore ». On cherche à montrer par l'analyse des textes que l'interprétation du maître ès arts s'écarte radicalement de la pensée du Cordouan qu'il prétend suivre. Tandis qu'Averroès suppose l'existence continue d'au moins un philosophe dans le monde, Jean de Jandun, rejetant comme irréaliste l'idée d'un homme parfait en qui s'incarnerait tout le savoir, et tributaire d'une erreur de traduction arabo-latine qui donne « sujet » pour « lieu », soutient qu'il n'y a chaque fois de perfection que si l'on totalise tous les savoirs particuliers des différents penseurs en activité sur la terre. Autrement dit, la philosophie est parfaite, certes, mais il n'y a pas de philosophe parfait. C'est coniunctim que la science est achevée, et non pas divisim. Un tel constat, qui rapproche l'analyse de Jean de celle menée par Dante au début de sa Monarchia, permet deux révisions : d'une part, l'idée d'un « averroïsme » latin réactionnaire, se contentant de répéter les paroles du maître, est à revoir ; d'autre part, cela signifie qu'il n'y a pas chez Jean les bases théoriques de l'idéal éthico-intellectualiste dont l'historiographie moderne assure qu'il en fut le champion parisien.

On cherche \u00e0 montrer par l'analyse des textes que l'interpr\u00e9tation du ma\u00eetre \u00e8s arts s'\u00e9carte radicalement de la pens\u00e9e du Cordouan qu'il pr\u00e9tend suivre. Tandis qu'Averro\u00e8s suppose l'existence continue d'au moins un philosophe dans le monde, Jean de Jandun, rejetant comme irr\u00e9aliste l'id\u00e9e d'un homme parfait en qui s'incarnerait tout le savoir, et tributaire d'une erreur de traduction arabo-latine qui donne \u00ab sujet \u00bb pour \u00ab lieu \u00bb, soutient qu'il n'y a chaque fois de perfection que si l'on totalise tous les savoirs particuliers des diff\u00e9rents penseurs en activit\u00e9 sur la terre. Autrement dit, la philosophie est parfaite, certes, mais il n'y a pas de philosophe parfait. C'est coniunctim que la science est achev\u00e9e, et non pas divisim. Un tel constat, qui rapproche l'analyse de Jean de celle men\u00e9e par Dante au d\u00e9but de sa Monarchia, permet deux r\u00e9visions : d'une part, l'id\u00e9e d'un \u00ab averro\u00efsme \u00bb latin r\u00e9actionnaire, se contentant de r\u00e9p\u00e9ter les paroles du ma\u00eetre, est \u00e0 revoir ; d'autre part, cela signifie qu'il n'y a pas chez Jean les bases th\u00e9oriques de l'id\u00e9al \u00e9thico-intellectualiste dont l'historiographie moderne assure qu'il en fut le champion parisien.","btype":3,"date":"2001","language":"French","online_url":"https:\/\/www.jstor.org\/stable\/26170063","doi_url":"","ti_url":"","categories":[{"id":1,"category_name":"Averroism","link":"bib?categories[]=Averroism"}],"authors":[{"id":622,"full_name":"Jean-Baptiste Brenet","role":1}],"works":[],"republication_of":null,"translation_of":null,"new_edition_of":null,"book":null,"booksection":null,"article":{"id":295,"journal_id":null,"journal_name":"Recherches de th\u00e9ologie et philosophie m\u00e9di\u00e9vales","volume":"68","issue":null,"pages":"310\u2013348"}},"sort":["Perfection de la philosophie ou philosophe parfait?.
