X, 133-138 where Dante puts into the mouth of St. Thomas Aquinas a tribute for Siger. It re-examines the question about why did the poet place Siger, whom St. Thomas is supposed to have written against, in a so exalted situation. The argument is considered from several points of view: literal interpretation, History of Medieval Philosophy and historiographic. So, first, the paper resumes the discussion held by Mandonnet, Nardi, Van Steenberghen and Gilson about it on 1910-1940. Then, it points out current historiographical notes on late medieval philosophy, specially about Siger’s statements and his “Averroism”. Finally, on that groundwork, the author proposes another interpretation of those verses. Este artículo trata sobre una reconsideración del conocido problema presente en las líneas de Par. X, 133-138 donde Dante pone en boca de Tomás de Aquino un tributo a Siger. Así, se re-examina la cuestión acerca de por qué el poeta coloca a Siger –sobre el que, se supone, Tomás escribió en contra– en tal exaltada situación. Se analiza esto desde varios puntos de vista: interpretación literal, la Historia de la Filosofía Medieval e historiografía. En primer término, este trabajo resume la discusión desarrollada por Mandonnet, Nardi, Van Steenberghen y Gilson entre los años 1910-1940. Luego, señala notas historiográficas actuales acerca del período de fines del Medioevo, especialmente lo referido a proposiciones de Siger y su “averroismo”. Finalmente, en ese marco, se propone otra interpretación de los versos dantescos. application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7893 10.34096/petm.v19997893 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7893/6951 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol 20 (1999); 38-55 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 20 (1999); 38-55 2683-9636 0325-2280 Dante Siger of Bravant Historiography Literal interpretation Averroism Dante Siger de Bravante Historiografía Interpretación literal Averroismo The Siger of Dante: Yesterday and Today El Siger dantesco ayer y hoy info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=7893_oai
