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.
Translated title of the contribution | 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 |
