Sumario:In Divine Causality and Human Free Choice , R.J. Matava explains the idea of physical premotion defended by Domingo Ba¿¿n¿¿ez, whose position in the Controversy de Auxiliis has been typically ignored in contemporary discussions of providence and freewill. Through a close engagement with untranslated primary texts, Matava shows Ba¿¿n¿¿ez¿́¿s relevance to recent debates about middle knowledge. Finding the mutual critiques of Ba¿¿n¿¿ez and Molina convincing, Matava argues that common presuppositions led both parties into an insoluble dilemma. However, Matava also challenges the informal consensus that Lonergan definitively resolved the controversy. Developing a position independently advanced by several recent scholars, Matava explains how the doctrine of creation entails a position that is more satisfactory both philosophically and as a reading of Aquinas.
