Die Leipziger Quodlibet-Disputation von 1514
Neue texte
In 1514 at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Leipzig, a quodlibetical disputation took place. About 60 persons participated in the disputation. A handwritten record of this event has been preserved. A thorough analysis of these texts gives us a wealth of information with regard to the themes, positions, and tendencies of thinking during that period of time. The scholars at Leipzig University made an attempt at reconciling their philosophical interests with the claim to spiritual hegemony on the part of theology and the church. This aspect is remarkable if one thinks of the famous papal bull Apostolici Regiminis, promulgated in the year 1513. The current article presents new textual evidence which has been uncovered in a Leipzig manuscript from the beginning of the 16th century (Leipzig, Universitätsbibliothek, Ms. 1601).
