Abstract

The aim of this essay is to investigate the point of view of William of Ockham on the problem of future contingents, particularly in Question I of the Tractatus de praedestinatione and the following suppositiones. Here we find the cornerstones of the Ockhamian solution and the intensive dialogue of the Venerabilis Inceptor with De interpretatione 9, locus classicus for the logical implications of the determinist or indeterminist nature of the propositions on future contingents, and with contemporary or immediately prior positions such as those of Duns Scotus and Henry of Ghent.
