After introducing the text and its structure, the author proceeds to place Balduin’s treatise in the theological context of the 12th century. He then discusses the two heretical movements, Catharism and Nihilism, that are refuted in the work and suggests that the very structure of the Liber is determined by Balduin’s intent at refutation. The author also points out that Balduin’s position is grounded in a basic theological tenet, namely that the doctrinal orthodoxy, taught by the Councils and the Popes, results in a perfect unity. It is within this fundamental thesis that one must contextualize the concept of “council” which allows one to enter into Balduin’s work and gives the reader an insight into the problems that the author of the Liber had to resolve in order to defend it. Este artículo analiza el concepto de “concilio” en el Liber de sectis hereticorum et orthodoxe fide dogmata, un trabajo que fue durante mucho tiempo considerada de un autor anónimo, y que solo recientemente le fue atribuido a su autor, Balduino de Canterbury. Luego de introducir el texto y su estructura, el autor procede a colocar el tratado de Balduino en el contexto teológico del siglo XII. Luego discute los dos movimientos heréticos, el catarismo y el nihilismo, que son refutados en la obra y sugiere que la misma estructura del Liber se ordenó como un intento de Balduino para refutarlos. El autor también subraya que la posición de Balduino se asienta en una postura eminentemente teológica, esto es, de una ortodoxia doctrinal enseñada en los Concilios y por los Papas que resulta en una perfecta unidad. Es en el marco de esta tesis fundamental que se debe contextualizar el concepto de “concilio” que permite ingresar a la obra de Balduino y le ofrece al lector un panorama general de los problemas que el autor del Liber tuvo que resolver en vistas de defenderlo. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7819 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7819/6881 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 29 (2008); 21-32 2683-9636 Concilio Balduino de Canterbury Herejía Teología Ortodoxia Council Balduino of Canterbury Heresy Theology Orthodoxy The "Council" Concept in the Liber de Sectis Heraticorum et Orthodoxe Fidei Dogmata of Balduin of Canterbury as An Anti-Heretical Argument La idea de concilio en el Liber de sectis heraticorum et orthodoxe fidei dogmata de Balduino de Canterbury como argumento antiherético info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=7819_oai
