Abstract
This article examines Giovanni Pico della Mirandola's detailed reaction against the condemnation of some of his famous Theses by a papal commission, through a careful reading of his Apology of 1487. This text, which was never studied in detail and still waits for a critical edition, reflects Pico's remarkable familiarity with the scholastic thinkers up to his own times. As part of his self-defense, Pico deals with the relation between opinions and faith, probable knowledge and certain truth, philosophy and theology, thus developing a method for examining theological opinions. To some extent, this method was based on the classical notions of probabile and veri simile, coming from the ancient Academic skeptics, which Pico knew from Cicero and Augustine. This, I argue, was part of Pico's humanist theology, his solution for the authority crisis of his time and for what he regarded as an unsolved tension in scholastic philosophy between human opinions and the revealed truth of faith.
本文通过仔细阅读Giovanni Pico della Mirandola于1487年发表的《致歉书》(Apology)，详细探讨了他对教皇委员会谴责他的一些著名论文的反应。这篇文章，从未被详细研究过，仍在等待一个批评版本，反映了皮科对他自己时代的学术思想家的非凡熟悉。作为他自我辩护的一部分，皮科处理了观点和信仰、可能的知识和确定的真理、哲学和神学之间的关系，从而发展了一种检验神学观点的方法。在某种程度上，这种方法是基于古典的概率和真实的概念，来自古代学术怀疑论者，皮科从西塞罗和奥古斯丁那里了解到。我认为，这是皮科人文主义神学的一部分，他解决了他那个时代的权威危机，解决了他认为在经院哲学中，人类观点与信仰的启示真理之间尚未解决的紧张关系。
