Henry of Ghent
View through CrossRef
Henry of Ghent (b. 1217[?]–1293) defends and develops free choice of the will for God and for rational creatures, and distinguishes a creature's essence and existence. These explain the contingency of the world and moral responsibility. His discussion of necessity and contingency also feature in his Trinitarian theology with regard to the internal divine production of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. His account of personhood also features in his Trinitarian theology and the individuation of rational creatures. Further, Henry upholds a traditional account of analogy with an epistemic twist for our positive knowledge of God.
