| Sumario: | This paper intends to show the role played by the Word in the thinking of Nicholas of Cusa through the analysis and hermeneutics of his sermons and other works previous to 1450. To do so, the article presents, in first place, his doctrine of the eternal generation of the Verbum, by which the Divine is conceived as a dynamic and productive principle as the ultimate foundation of all word. Secondly, it presents the human mind, image of the divine one, as the dynamic force that sets up the symbolic or conjectural universe in which the word is inscribed. Finally, it shows that the word fulfils the function of revealing and manifesting the human mind, allowing the mind’s self-knowledge and the knowledge of the Verbum. |
