El testimonio de Alberto Magno sobre la recepción de La Política de Aristóteles : sobre la formación de la política como teoría a partir de 1265

Abstract

The paper deals with the gradual constitution of the politica as theory in the middle ages. The author articulates the paper in three parts in accordance to three different stages of medieval treatment of the politica as science within the division of the philosophia moralis in ethica, oeconomica and politica. First he gives an overview on the medieval notion of politica until the first half of the thirteenth century. Secondly he analyzes Albert's conception of politica in the treatise Super Ethica. Thirdly he shows Albert's modifications of his own conception after the medieval reception of Aristotle's Politics.
