Guido Terrena (c.1270 in Perpignan – 1342), also known as Guido Terreni and Guy de Perpignan, was a Catalan Carmelite canon lawyer and scholastic philosopher.
Life
editHe was a student of Godfrey of Fontaines, and teacher of John Baconthorpe.[1] He became Prior-General of the Carmelites in 1318,[2] bishop of Mallorca, and bishop of Elna.[3][4][5] As bishop of Elna he opposed Adhémar IV de Mosset.[6]
Works
editHe was an early infallibilist;[8] the concept of papal infallibility is thought to occur first in a work he wrote concerning the conflict of Pope John XXII (1316–34) and the Franciscan Spirituals.[9] It is said that he adapted this doctrine to papal needs, rather than originating it,[10] and before 1328.[11]
He was a leading member of a small group of infallibilists at the court of Pope John XXII.[12] His position on papal infallibility "so closely anticipated the doctrine of Vatican I that in the judgment of B.M. Xiberta, the Carmelite scholar who edited [Terreni's] work, 'if he had written it after Vatican I he would have to add or change hardly a single word.'"[13] He wrote: "We are not asking whether a pope can be a heretic in himself but whether he can err in defining anything in the church and obliging the faithful to believe, so that his error does not concern the person of the pope alone but concerns all the faithful and the whole church of Christ. For an error concerning his person can inhere in the pope, but not an error concerning the whole church."[14]
He was one of those opposing the views of Arnold of Villanova on the Antichrist;[15][16] and he first dubbed Joachim of Fiore a heretic.[17] He was asked, with Pierre de la Palud, to report on Peter John Olivi's apocalyptic writing.[18][19]
He wrote commentaries on Aristotle's De anima, Nicomachean Ethics, Metaphysics, and Physics.
Other works include the Errores Sarracenorum against Islam,[20] a Summa de haresibus and a Decretum commentary.[2]
Burial place
editGuido was buried in the Carmelite church in Avignon.[21]
