          Abstract

          Resumen: Meister Eckhart, con un método curiosamente axiomático, presenta en una selección de pasajes ciertas propiedades de la naturaleza divina al apelar al recurso lógico de la reductio ad absurdum. Luego de exponer que el ser, la unidad y la infinitud son características de la esencia divina, Eckhart plantea desarrollar argumentos que tengan como premisas precisamente la negación de estas. Al hacerlo, todos los razonamientos recaen, invariablemente, en contradicción. Así, el presente trabajo señala, en primer lugar, consideraciones de índole metodológico que remarcan la peculiaridad de un sistema axiomático en el marco de la Escolástica, por un lado, y discuten la relación entre la predicación positiva sobre Dios y el recurso a la vía negativa, que parecería negar la posibilidad de hacerlo, por otro. En segundo lugar, se presentan los desarrollos de estos argumentos. Estos, a su vez, permiten observar el sistema metafísico que opera como fundamento del pensamiento eckhartiano.

          Abstract: By a peculiar axiomatic method, Meister Eckhart presents in a selection of passages certain properties of the divine nature through the logical resource of the reductio ad absurdum. After stating that being, unity and infinity are characteristics of the divine essence, Eckhart proposes to develop arguments that have as premises precisely the negation of these. In doing so, all reasoning invariably falls into contradiction. Thus, this paper points out, firstly, methodological considerations that highlight the peculiarity of an axiomatic system in the framework of the Scholastic, on the one hand, and discuss the relationship between this positive predication about God and the via negativa, which would seem to deny the possibility of doing so, on the other. Secondly, it presents the selected arguments. These, in turn, allow us to observe the metaphysical system that operates as the foundation of Eckhartian thought.
