Relation is at the heart of any philosophy but especially of
Aristotelian philosophy. It is also at the heart of theological
understanding of the central Christian doctrine of the Trinity of
Persons in God. Arguably the greatest, and certainly the most
influential, Jesuit philosopher-theologian of all time, Francisco
Suarez (1548-1617), would by any estimate qualify to explain
relation. While he has treated the subject often in his published
writings, his best and most systematic treatment of its myriad
dimensions will be found in his famous Disputationes metaphysicae
in two places. Earlier translated into English by the translator of
the present volume, Disputation 54, Section 6, gives Suarez's
teaching on mind-dependent relations. This translation now of the
eighteen Sections of Disputation 47 contains his careful, broad,
and deep thought on mind-independent, both categorical and
transcendental, relations. While Suarez presents his teaching in a
systematic way, he intentionally wraps it around a first-rate
explanation of Aristotle's enigmatic treatment of the category of
Aristotle's enigmatic treatment of the category of relation in the
Perihermeneias and the Metaphysics. For that explanation alone, the
present volume is timelessly valuable. But as any serious reader
will soon see, its value only begins there.
