The influence of the Spanish Jesuit Francisco Suarez (1548-1617) on
17th-century philosophy, theology, and law can hardly be
underestimated. In this groundbreaking book, Daniel D. Novotny
explores one of the most controversial topics of Suarez's
philosophy: "beings of reason." Beings of reason are impossible
intentional objects, such as blindness and square-circle. The first
part of this book is structured around a close reading of Suarez's
main text on the subject, namely Disputation 54. The second part
centers on texts on this topic by other outstanding philosophers of
the time, such as the Spanish Jesuit Pedro Hurtado de Mendoza
(1578-1641), the Italian Franciscan Bartolomeo Mastri (1602-73),
and the Spanish-Bohemian-Luxembourgian polymath Juan Caramuel de
Lobkowitz (1606-82). The book should be of interest not just to
those concerned with beings of reason but also for all those with a
broader interest in the history of the period. It is written in a
clear style that will make it appealing both to historians of
philosophy and to anyone interested in applying analytical tools to
the history of philosophy.
