| In the thirteenth century, along with the return of the European thinkers and philosophers to Aristotelian philosophy and the emergence of the contradiction between Aristotle's philosophy and Christian teachings and religious beliefs, the church put forward a theory known as dual reality. According to this theory everything that is true in theology, its opposite can also be true in philosophy. With this theory, the church accused the philosophers of heresy, while the followers of Averroes considered themselves free of this charge. In his book Faṣl al-maqāl, Averroes appeared to be in favor of the above mentioned theory in a different form. By a precise analysis of the theory through reviewing the now available sources and considering the events followed by attributing this view to the philosophers, one can infer different implications from the theory from the perspective of each of the three sides involved (i.e. Averroes, followers of Averroes and church) and the following division can be sketched: 1- ontological implications: that is to believe in the existence of two types of realities in the universe which can be described in two ways: A) two contradictory scopes in the universe B) two distinct scopes in the universe. 2- Epistemological implications of the dual reality: A) Two ways to reach one reality. B) Two dictions to narrate one reality. C) Duality of the reality in practice. D) Two levels of one single reality. By analyzing each of these implications of the dual reality, one can be led to some consequences according to which based on different works of Averroes he cannot be accused of believing in a kind of duality which makes him deserve heresy. |

| Die Lehre von den fünf inneren Sinnen spielt eine bedeutende Rolle in Ramon Llulls Liber contemplationis, wie schon ihre Position buchstäblich im Zentrum dieser Schrift erkennen lässt. Welches Konzept aber besitzt Llull von den inneren Sinnen? Welche Traditionen haben sein Denken beeinflusst? Oder liegt uns hier lediglich ein weiteres Beispiel für seine intellektuelle Eigenständigkeit und zugleich Fremdartigkeit vor dem Hintergrund seines geschichtlichen Umfeldes vor? Angesichts dieser Problematik besteht das Ziel des vorliegenden Beitrags darin, die wesentlichen Charakteristika der llullschen Lehre von den inneren Sinnen herauszuarbeiten und im Lichte der zu seiner Zeit gängigen Traditionen zu erörtern. Hierzu ist zum einen auf die Theorie der inneren Sinne einzugehen, die der arabisch-peripatetischen Philosophie entstammt und seit dem späten 12. Jahrhundert im lateinischen Westen rezipiert wurde. Zum anderen ist die Lehre von den geistigen Sinnen ins Auge zu fassen, die im lateinischen Westen seit der Patristik präsent ist und gerade in der Zeit Llulls große Prominenz in der Theologie besaß. Wie anhand von zwei Fallbeispielen – den inneren Sinnen der conscientia und der subtilitas – verdeutlicht wird, steht Llulls Auffassung trotz ihrer Eigentümlichkeit nicht einfach nur unvereinbar quer zum akademischen Diskurs; vielmehr zeichnet sie sich durch ihre originelle Verknüpfung verschiedenster teils traditioneller, teils aktueller, teils philosophischer, teils theologischer Elemente aus. Bei allem Eklektizismus erweist sich dabei Llulls Konzept der Kontemplation, des Leitthemas seines Buches, als das einheitsstiftende Moment: Nichts Geringeres als ihre ‚Anatomie‘ steht mit den fünf inneren Sinnen zur Debatte und rechtfertigt somit auf inhaltlicher Ebene die formale Zentralstellung dieser Thematik im Liber contemplationis. That the doctrine of the five internal senses plays an important role in Ramon Llull’s Liber contemplationis is already evident from the position it occupies, literally at the centre of the book; but what is Llull’s concept of the internal senses? Which traditions influenced his thought? Or is this merely another example of his intellectual independence and, at the same time, his eccentricity with respect to his historical environment? With this problematic in mind, the goal of the present contribution is to analyze the essential features of Llull’s doctrine of the internal senses and to discuss them against the background of the prevailing theories of his time. In this connection, it will first address the theory of the internal senses, which stemmed from Arabic-Peripatetic philosophy and was known in the Latin West from the late twelfth century onwards. It will focus secondly on the doctrine of the spiritual senses, which had been present in the Latin West since the Patristic period and gained particular significance in the theology of Llull’s time. As will be shown through two case studies (of the internal senses of conscientia and subtilitas), despite its uniqueness, Llull’s view was not simply irreconcilable with contemporary academic discourse; it is rather distinguished by its original way of bringing together the most disparate elements, partly traditional, partly current, partly philosophical, partly theological. Thus, regardless of its eclecticism, Llull’s concept of contemplation – the main theme of his book – constitutes also its unifying moment: nothing less than its ‘anatomy’ is under debate in his discussion of the five internal senses, which moreover explains, on the level of content, the formal centrality of this thematic in the Liber contemplationis. |

Wie anhand von zwei Fallbeispielen \u2013 den inneren Sinnen der conscientia und der subtilitas \u2013 verdeutlicht wird, steht Llulls Auffassung trotz ihrer Eigent\u00fcmlichkeit nicht einfach nur unvereinbar quer zum akademischen Diskurs; vielmehr zeichnet sie sich durch ihre originelle Verkn\u00fcpfung verschiedenster teils traditioneller, teils aktueller, teils philosophischer, teils theologischer Elemente aus. Bei allem Eklektizismus erweist sich dabei Llulls Konzept der Kontemplation, des Leitthemas seines Buches, als das einheitsstiftende Moment: Nichts Geringeres als ihre \u201aAnatomie\u2018 steht mit den f\u00fcnf inneren Sinnen zur Debatte und rechtfertigt somit auf inhaltlicher Ebene die formale Zentralstellung dieser Thematik im Liber contemplationis.\r\n\r\nThat the doctrine of the five internal senses plays an important role in Ramon Llull\u2019s Liber contemplationis is already evident from the position it occupies, literally at the centre of the book; but what is Llull\u2019s concept of the internal senses? Which traditions influenced his thought? Or is this merely another example of his intellectual independence and, at the same time, his eccentricity with respect to his historical environment? With this problematic in mind, the goal of the present contribution is to analyze the essential features of Llull\u2019s doctrine of the internal senses and to discuss them against the background of the prevailing theories of his time. In this connection, it will first address the theory of the internal senses, which stemmed from Arabic-Peripatetic philosophy and was known in the Latin West from the late twelfth century onwards. It will focus secondly on the doctrine of the spiritual senses, which had been present in the Latin West since the Patristic period and gained particular significance in the theology of Llull\u2019s time. As will be shown through two case studies (of the internal senses of conscientia and subtilitas), despite its uniqueness, Llull\u2019s view was not simply irreconcilable with contemporary academic discourse; it is rather distinguished by its original way of bringing together the most disparate elements, partly traditional, partly current, partly philosophical, partly theological. Thus, regardless of its eclecticism, Llull\u2019s concept of contemplation \u2013 the main theme of his book \u2013 constitutes also its unifying moment: nothing less than its \u2018anatomy\u2019 is under debate in his discussion of the five internal senses, which moreover explains, on the level of content, the formal centrality of this thematic in the Liber contemplationis.","btype":2,"date":"2011","language":"German","online_url":"","doi_url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1484\/M.IPM-EB.3.4919","ti_url":"","categories":[{"id":43,"category_name":"Tradition and Reception","link":"bib?categories[]=Tradition and Reception"},{"id":73,"category_name":"Epistemology","link":"bib?categories[]=Epistemology"},{"id":31,"category_name":"Metaphysics","link":"bib?categories[]=Metaphysics"}],"authors":[],"works":[],"republication_of":null,"translation_of":null,"new_edition_of":null,"book":null,"booksection":{"id":5342,"section_of":5341,"pages":"239-269","is_catalog":null,"book":{"id":5341,"bilderberg_idno":null,"dare_idno":null,"catalog_idno":null,"entry_type":"bibliography","type":4,"language":"no language selected","title":"n Gottes Schau und Weltbetrachtung.

Mit ihren Tagungsbeitr\u00e4gen, die in diesem Band gesammelt vorliegen, bieten sie eine informative Tour d\u2019Horizon durch Ramon Lulls umfangreichstes und wohl bedeutendstes Werk, den Liber contemplationis in Deum (katalanisch: Llibre de contemplaci\u00f3 en D\u00e9u).\r\n\r\nDer Liber contemplationis umfasst 366 Kapitel: ein Kapitel f\u00fcr jeden Tag des Jahres und eines f\u00fcr den zus\u00e4tzlichen Tag im Schaltjahr. Der Inhalt des Werkes ist oft als \u201aenzyklop\u00e4disch\u2018 bezeichnet worden. Sein Ziel besteht jedoch nicht in einer umfassenden Darstellung des Wissens \u00fcber die gesamte Wirklichkeit, sondern in der Bestimmung und Beschreibung der Wirklichkeit in Bezug auf die Betrachtung Gottes, die Erkenntnis der Glaubensartikel sowie die Erlangung eines tugendhaften, gottgef\u00e4lligen Lebens.\r\n\r\nDer vorliegende Band umfasst neben einf\u00fchrenden Untersuchungen zur lateinischen Text\u00fcberlieferung und zur Struktur des Werkes sowohl detaillierte Kommentare zu ausgew\u00e4hlten Kapiteln als auch Diskussionen von Einzelfragen vor dem Hintergrund von Lulls Gesamtwerk in seinem historischen Kontext.\r\n\r\nIn the year 2007, the Raimundus-Lullus-Institut at the University of Freiburg celebrated its 50th anniversary. To mark this occasion, an international congress was held on 25\u201328 November 2007, titled Vision of God and Contemplation of the World. Interpretations of Ramon Lull\u2019s \u00bbLiber contemplationis\u00ab. The congress papers assembled in the present volume offer an informative survey of the Liber contemplationis in Deum (Catalan: Llibre de contemplaci\u00f3 en D\u00e9u), the most comprehensive and probably most significant work of Lull\u2019s. The Liber contemplationis comprises 366 chapters: one chapter for each day of the year, including one for the additional day of the leap year. The contents of the work have often been described as \u2018encyclopaedic\u2019. Its aim, however, is not to offer a comprehensive account of all that is known about reality, but rather to recognise and describe reality in the context of contemplating God, knowing the articles of faith as well as attaining a virtuous life agreeable to God.\r\n\r\nThe volume contains introductory studies of the Latin tradition of the text as well as detailed commentaries on individual chapters.","republication_of":0,"online_url":"","online_resources":null,"translation_of":"0","new_edition_of":"0","is_catalog":0,"in_bibliography":0,"is_inactive":0,"notes":null,"ti_url":"","doi_url":"10.1484\/M.IPM-EB.6.09070802050003050400030501","book":{"id":5341,"pubplace":"Turnhout","publisher":"Brepols","series":"Instrumenta Patristica et Mediaevalia","volume":"59 (Subs.
