Stanowisko
Suárez’s Metaphysical Disputations are often regarded as the first comprehensive metaphysics arranged by topics rather than as a commentary on Aristotle. Its subject is being as such; between a thing’s essence and its existence he saw no real distinction, only one drawn by thought, and every individual is individual through its whole being. The work became a textbook at Catholic and Protestant universities alike and shaped Descartes, Leibniz and Wolff. In his theory of law he distinguished natural law from the law of nations and argued that God gives political power to the community as a whole, which then transfers it to rulers – a position directed against the divine right of kings.

Francisco Suárez was born in Granada in 1548, joined the Jesuits while a student at Salamanca and taught theology at Segovia, Valladolid, Rome, Alcalá and Salamanca. In 1597 King Philip II appointed him to the chair of theology at Coimbra, which he held for nearly twenty years. Honored as “Doctor eximius”, the exceptional teacher, he died in Lisbon in 1617.
