Sažetak
The paper depicts the influence of Pietro Pomponazzi on Federicus Grisogonus, Grisogonus’ attitude concerning nominalism, and his attitude regarding the Renaissance „clash of authority“, that is, Aristotle vs. Plato. Grisogonus criticizes Pomponazzi as a nominalist and holds that nominalism, due to its concepts of the individual end the common, abrogates the possibility of mathematics as a science. Grisogonus, however, is not a Platonist, for he leans toward the peripatetic concept of the Being of mathematical objects. In a distinctive way, he interprets the Aristotelian notion of the abstract, that is, of the Being of everything that is separated from the sensory by the mind (and thus from the mathematical objects). Although the mathematical objects are actually in thought alone, they are, potentially, in the things as well. This interpretation, Grisogonus believes, achieves two things: The possibility of mathematics as a science, and a potential mathematical definability of a material and sensory being.
