Em artigo publicado em 1909, Pierre Duhem “acusou” Nicolau de Cusa de haver “plagiado” Thierry de Chartres. O que chamou a sua atenção foi o fato do De opere sex dierum libellus de Thierry se concluir com uma doutrina trinitária, de aparência pitagórica, na qual a eternidade de Deus se deduz da unidade, enquanto que a geração do Verbo pelo Pai é comparada à produção da própria igualdade pela unidade. No caso do Cusano, essa mesma doutrina aparecerá no primeiro livro do De docta ignorantia (capítulos VII e VIII). Não pretendemos aqui aprofundar nem a doutrina trinitária de Thierry e nem a de Nicolau, mas oportunamente mostraremos que Nicolau de Cusa se apropria dos termos Unitas-Aequalitas-Connexio a partir dos quais especula sobre a Trindade e que o juízo de Duhem sobre a relação entre os dois pensadores precisaria ser repensado.Abstract: In an article published in 1909, Pierre Duhem “accused” Nicholas of Cusa of having”plagiarized” Thierry of Chartres. What caught his attention was the fact that Thierry of Chartres’ De opere sex dierum libellus concluded with a Trinitarian doctrine of Pythagorean appearance, in which the eternity of God is inferred from the unit, while the generation of the Word of the Father is compared to the generation of equality by oneness. In the case of Cusano, the same doctrine appears in the first book of De docta ignorantia (Chapters VII and VIII). We do not intend here to further the authors’ Trinitarian doctrine, we will show, however, that Nicholas de Cusa employs the terms Unitas-Aequalitas-Connexio from which he speculates on the Trinity and that Duhem’s opinion on the relationship between both thinkers ought to be rethought.

The Trinity

The purpose of this essay is to identify the theological comprehension of the Word as Creator in the action of the Trinity, which Thierry of Chartres (12th century) offers in his Tractatus de sex dierum operibus. In his brief and synthetic explanation, he makes coincide the findings of human reason with biblical notions, such as Figure and splendor, Wisdom, Truth, Word, not as a mere sequence but in their deep and relational meaning. Thierry’s rational method is deductive-mathematical, whereas the philosophical premise is the rerum universitas articulated in levels of necessity and possibility. All this allows creation to be considered as explication of the complicatio—or multiplicity produced by unity— which is typical of the chartrian neoplatonism, with the characteristic seal of Thierry.

Abstract This essay attempts to provide more evidence for the notions that there actually is a Latin (as opposed to a Greek) Neoplatonic tradition in late antiquity, that this tradition includes a systematic theory of first principles, and that this tradition and theory are influential in Western Europe during the Middle Ages. The method of the essay is intended to be novel in that, instead of examining authors or works in a chronological sequence and attempting to isolate doctrines in the traditional manner, it proceeds by identifying certain philosophemes (a concept borrowed from structuralist and post-structuralist thought and here signifying certain minimal units from which philosophical “systems” can be constructed), and then studying the combination and re-combination of these philosophemes consciously and unconsciously by a selection of important medieval writers. These philosophemes occur in Augustine, De Genesi ad Litteram; Augustine, De Trinitate; Augustine, De Vera Religione; Augustine, De Musica; Macrobius, Commentarius in Somnium Scipionis; and Boethius, De Consolatione Philosophiae. The sampling of medieval authors who use these philosophemes includes Eriugena, William of Conches, Thierry of Chartres, and Nicholas of Cusa.

The Trinity

Thierry of Chartres, who taught at Paris and Chartres in the mid-twelfth century, was a polymath and a Platonist. The Heptateuchon, a large and ambitious collection of texts for teaching the liberal arts, testifies to the range of his interests from grammar, logic and rhetoric to mathematics and astronomy; they also stretched to theology. To Thierry is attributed an explanation of the account of creation in Genesis, after God’s initial action, in physical terms. He also used arithmetical analogies to illustrate the Trinity and, drawing on a variety of Platonic and Neoplatonic sources, analysed the relationship between God and his creation.
