A B C D ... Z Societas Christiana Encyclopedia William of Ockham (1290-1350) William of Ockham is often known (at least by name) by his most famous intellectual tool, "Ockham's Razor". This principle states, basically, that when analyzing the world one should avoid "multiplying entities unnecessarily". The meaning of this is set within the centuries-old debate amongst Christian intellectuals regarding Realism and Nominalism , a set of profound questions about the relationship of human language to reality. By Ockham's day, the Realist school had progressed to such an extreme point that some of its adherents were proclaiming theories which strongly implied that God himself was metaphysically bound by realities outside of himself and could not operate out of accord with those norms. This implication, in turn, derived from the basic Realist notion that the world of changing space and time things wasand had to beundergirded by a vast metaphysical hierarchy of unchanging things, all interconnected and rationally understandable by the human mind. But Ockham is also known to students of the Middle Ages for his sweeping and powerful attack upon the Papal Monarchy , a theory of the government of Christian society which held that all powers in society, both spiritual and temporal, descended from the Pope of Rome, who , as the "Vicar of Christ", was the supreme power on earth under God. Ockham wrote a number of political treatises exposing what he believed to be the tyrannical foundations and implications of this theory of government, and helped to increase the already existing trend in Medieval thinking toward constitutionalist forms of government. Ockham's controversy with the Papal Monarchy was spurred by a dispute that broke out between the Papacy and the "Spiritual Franciscans" regarding the pope's ability to infallibly define doctrine. Ockham was joined in this battle by a more radical theologian than he

Early life Little is known of Ockham’s childhood. It seems that he was still a youngster when he entered the Franciscan order. At that time a central issue of concern in the order and a main topic of debate in the church was the interpretation of the rule of life composed by St. Francis of Assisi concerning the strictness of the poverty that should be practiced within the order. Ockham’s early schooling in a Franciscan convent concentrated on the study of logic; throughout his career, his interest in logic never waned, because he regarded the science of terms as fundamental and indispensable for practicing all the sciences of things, including God, the world, and ecclesiastical or civil institutions; in all his disputes logic was destined to serve as his chief weapon against adversaries.

He worked as a Franciscan theologian and scholar, teaching at Oxford until his views came under question by the papal court of Avignon in 1324. There, he met Michael of Cesena, who was also under papal charges, and together they began to review the papal constitutions on apostolic poverty. Through that study, they finally agreed that Pope John XXII (r. 1316-1334) had fallen into heresy. In 1328, Ockham and Cesena fled to the protection of Emperor Louis IV of Bavaria, the political opponent of the pope in Italy and Germany. In the Franciscan convent in Munich, Ockham wrote mostly political treatises for the last two decades of his life, mainly aimed at John XXII and his successors. Ockham died in April 1347.

Bookmark This Page (Internet Explorer only) (For Automatic Bookmark Use Control+D) Feature Article William of Ockham Cutting out the fat RATE THIS ARTICLE "Fanaticism consists in redoubling your effort when you have forgotten your aim." -George Santayana I have a vivid recollection of one of my professors whose specialty was formal logic, relating with relish how, in some academic dispute or other things had gotten rather ugly. I remember terms like "blood on the floor". To a young student, laboring under the illusion that in academia there was little room for raw emotion much less out and out warfare, this came as quite a shock. Were not these to be temples of logic and reasoned discourse? Now I learned that just as in more mainstream human activity, if you couldn't win your point by the strength of your argument there was always brute force. I am not suggesting physical violence of course, although even that may happen on occasion. The bludgeoning is more usually inflicted by mental techniques such as belittling an opponent or by the more subtle "straw man" tactic where instead of attacking an idea you attack the person offering it. I use this little personal anecdote to introduce one of my heroes, William of Ockham or as I like to call him William van Ockham. Van Ockham was born around the year 1285 in Surrey, England. That would make him a sort of successor to Roger Bacon who died in 1294. Although like Bacon, he was involved with the order of the Franciscans it is not known whether he was familliar with the other man's work.

WILLIAM OF OCKHAM -born between 1290 and 1300 (Thomas Aquinas: b. 1224, d. 1274). -entered Franciscan order (and was later assaulted by the pope for his defense of evangelical poverty.) -began studying theology at Oxford in 1310. -lectured on the bible 1315-1317; on Peter Lombard's Sentences -1319-1324: studied, wrote, and engaged in Scholastic disputations, one result of which was his philosophizing around the problem of universals. -died in Munich, of the Black Death, in 1349. Ockham knew Aristotle thoroughly (like Aquinas), but wanted to "correct" Aristotle wherever A's phil. limited in any way the freedom and power of God. To this end he attacked A's "realism" w.r.t. universals. Recall: -the theory of divine ideas looms large in Christian thought from Augustine to Aquinas. -Plato had spoken of eternal Forms or Ideas, distinct from God, that were the patterns or models of the created order, especially w.r.t. its intelligible structure -later Greek philosophers (e.g., Plotinus) located these Ideas in the divine mind. -then are these Ideas a "given" for God

Rama Coomaraswamy THE FUNDAMENTAL NATURE OF THE CONFLICT BETWEEN MODERN AND TRADITIONAL MAN - OFTEN CALLED THE CONFLICT BETWEEN SCIENCE AND FAITH (part 2) WHAT IS 'EVOLUTION'? Evolution holds that at a certain point in time disparate atoms combined to form complex molecules, and these in turn to form a living cell. Step wise, through a series of processes such as natural selection, the survival of the fittest, genetic alterations, sexual attraction, chance, or whatever, these developed into still higher forms of life to form the various phylogenetic strains and species. Algae became fishes, fishes crawled out of the sea to become lizards and eventually dinosaurs, these in turn climbed trees and became birds. Finally, one of these various evolutionary ancestors developed into apes, hominids and man. Implicit in this theory is that even human consciousness is derived from matter - indeed, that it is a particularly refined or 'evolved' form of matter. You have all heard of the prince who kissed the frog and turned her into a fairy princess. Well evolution tells us this is what happened.

He is, however, most famous for Ockham's Razor, an ontological principle which is also known as the law of parsimony. According to Ockham, Frustra fit per plura quod potest fieri per pauciora , which means in English: It is pointless to do with more what can be done with less. What this means, in practice, is that we should not bother postulating the existence of entities, things, or principles which are not absolutely, logically necessary to explain the phenomena at hand. Thus, for example, because gravity does such a good job at explaining why things fall, there is no need to add in the extra hypothesis of invisible fairies pushing things to the ground. Not all of William's ideas were warmly received by the Church. The pope summoned him to appear at Avignon and answer charges; in the end, fifty-one of his propositions were deemed heretical and banned. Before this time he had accorded the Church and the pope the authority in matters of faith, but after these experiences he limited that authority to scriptures. As a consequence, he was forced to flee and was excommunicated from his Franciscan order.
