Abstract
In this article I offer a study of the inaugural lecture with which Joseph Ratzinger began his professorship at the University of Bonn, The God of Faith and the God of the Philosophers, in order to shed light on the understanding of philosophy that is presupposed in the text. I argue that in it, unlike what the author does in other texts, philosophy is understood as an activity essentially oriented to the knowledge of ontological, universal and rational truth, and that, precisely, these characteristics foster an alliance between philosophy and the incipient Christian faith.
