The Paduan School of Philosophy

pad_paduan_philosophy

The philosophy faculty of Padua has developed a tradition of rational inquiry into the natural world that operates on Aristotelian premises while reaching conclusions that trouble the Church far more than open theology might have. In Padua, it is considered legitimate to argue that the soul is mortal, that intellect is collective rather than individual, and that natural causes could explain what elsewhere requires divine intervention. This culture of secular reasoning produces lawyers, physicians, and administrators of unusual intellectual independence, trained to analyze rather than simply to accept authority. The reputation of the Paduan School makes our state a gathering point for minds that produce more careful governance, and draw scholars who enrich our city's intellectual life.
