Abstract

Egidio of Viterbo's Sentences-Commentary ad mentem Platonis blends scholastic theological argumentation with the poetic theology of Ficinian Platonism. This essay examines Egidio's application of myths drawn mainly from the Platonic dialogues to residual questions, after he successfully addressed the question of divine generation. The allusions do not just embellish, but embody the fundamental theological truth as revealed in scripture and tradition. Egidio incorporates philosophical humanism and the literary sensibilities of his age into the Sentences- Commentary genre.
