Báñez believes that this writing is Pelagian and advances several arguments which he will later use against Luis de Molina and the Molinists. The second is the last preserved writing by Báñez: a letter to the Master General of the Dominicans where he mentions his hope of seeing an end to the dispute on grace and free will.

Albert also restates the reflections of different authors like Boethius or Saint John of Damascus and he gives his personal solution to the complex questions of providence, destiny and contingency of the world.

La célebre crítica de Heidegger a la onto-teo-logía acusa a toda la metafísica occidental de habernos conducido al “olvido del ser”. En estas páginas prestaremos atención a dos intentos de responder a este ataque: el de Marion que, con Heidegger, prefiere liberar a Dios de la esfera del ser; el de Gilson, que atribuye a Tomás de Aquino una teología natural en cierta discontinuidad con la metafísica clásica. Por nuestra parte, pretendemos proponer una continuidad más clara entre el concepto cristiano de Dios y la ontología aristotélica en particular, la cual es de suyo abierta.
