Abstract
We propose here to present some homologies existing between the theologian’s social position and the apparently purest theoretical proposals, those relating to the divine economy and more particularly the procession of the Holy Spirit. After a brief presentation of the “scholastic field” and proposals relating to the procession of the Spirit, three moments of resonance between statutory position and pneumatological reflection are discussed. The trial of the amauricians, especially the “pantheist” and “autotheist” proposals attributed to them, will be compared with the delimitation and institution of the scholastic field under the influence of masters in theology concerned about the incursions of masters of the arts into their reserved field and the overly wide dissemination of theological knowledge. Albert the Great’s flow theory appears as the conceptualization of the link between ecclesiology and divine economy. Finally, the notion of divine illumination in Henri of Ghent is presented as the theological translation of the defence of the eminent and autonomous position of the scholastic theologian.
