| Sumario: | The tendency to question the accuracy of sensory perception is found in various medieval theological traditions, including Franciscan and Islamic. In both these traditions, the source of the idea that we cannot trust our sensory perception seems to have been the Greek commentaries on Aristotle. However, both traditions go beyond ideas contained in Greek Aristotelian literature and independently develop similar arguments and come to similar conclusions about the reliability of sensory perception. Encontramos la tendencia a cuestionar la precisión de la percepción sensorial en diversas tradiciones teológicas medievales, incluyendo la franciscana y la islámica. En ambas tradiciones, parece que los comentarios griegos a la obra aristotélica están en el origen de la idea de que no podemos confiar en nuestra percepción sensorial. Sin embargo, ambas tradiciones van más allá de las ideas contenidas en la literatura aristotélica griega y desarrollan de manera independiente argumentos similares y llegan a conclusiones similares sobre la fiabilidad de la percepción sensorial. |
