Dios permite el mal para el bien. Dos aproximaciones diferentes desde la metafísica del ser del bien en Santo Tomás y San Buenaventura / God permits Evil for the Sake of Good. Two different Explanations From the Metaphysics of Being and the Good in St. Thomas and St. Bonaventure

Abstract

This paper confronts the relation between two paradigmatic positions about being and good in the 13th century: Thomas Aquinas and Bonaventure of Bagnoregio. The last part of the article analyses the question of evil in the context of a metaphysics in which the totality of being identify is identified with good.
