Isaías 7: 9 RESUMO Trata do humanismo latino, na Escola de Salamanca, no Século XVI, por meio da leitura das obras centrais de Francisco de Vitória e da possibilidade deste como uma alternativa viável para fundamentação filosófica dos direitos humanos no mundo contemporâneo. Para isso, inicia com uma apresentação da Escola de Salamanca e do mestre Francisco de Vitória, tratando com relação a este, de sua importância para o direito internacional, para analisar suas principais obras, o De Indis e o De iuri belli, no intuito de proporcionar uma visão do humanismo latino e seus pressupostos para uma fundamentação filosófica dos direitos humanos. Segue tratando sobre uma fundamentação contraposta ao humanismo latino, sintetizada na razão de Estado, observada nos escritos de Nicolau Maquiavel e Thomas Hobbes. Para, por fim, lançar as bases do que entende como necessário para propor uma fundamentação filosófica dos direitos humanos, por meio da apresentação de um entendimento sobre o que seriam os direitos humanos e os elementos necessários para uma fundamentação destes, tais como, sua relação com os direitos naturais medieval e moderno, seu comprometimento com um entendimento sobre a história, dentre outras questões. Trabalha com a hipótese inicial de que o humanismo latino pode servir como modelo viável de alternativa, porém ao final temos considerações críticas sobre esse entendimento, a partir dos elementos críticos apresentados no que se refere ao necessário para uma fundamentação filosófica. Palavras-Chave: Direitos Humanos – Fundamentação filosófica – Humanismo Latino – Razão de Estado – Francisco de Vitória ABSTRACT It deals with Latin humanism at the Salamanca School in the 16th century by reading the central works of Francisco de Vitoria and the possibility of this as a viable alternative for the philosophical foundation of human rights in the contemporary world. For this, it begins with a presentation of the School of Salamanca and the master Francisco de Vitoria, dealing with it, of its importance for international law, to analyze his main works, De Indis and De iuri belli, in order to provide a vision of Latin humanism and its presuppositions for a philosophical foundation of human rights. Then goes on to deal with a foundation opposed to Latin humanism, synthesized in the reason of State, observed in the writings of Niccolo Machiavelli and Thomas Hobbes. To finally lay the foundations of that it deems necessary to propose a philosophical foundation of human rights, through the presentation of an understanding of what would be human rights and the necessary elements for a basis of these, such as their relationship with medieval and modern natural rights, its commitment to an understanding of history, among other issues. It works with the initial hypothesis that Latin humanism can serve as a viable alternative model, but in the end, we have critical considerations about this understanding, based on the critical elements presented in what is necessary for a philosophical foundation.

    LA IDEA DE AMERICA 25/10/10 12:15 Página 43 COLONIZATION OF THE «INDIES» THE ORIGIN OF INTERNATIONAL LAW? MARTTI KOSKENNIEMI It is widely agreed that international law has its origins in the writings of the Spanish theologians of the 16th century, especially the so-called «School of Sala- manca», who were reacting to the news of Columbus having found not only a new continent but a new population, living in conditions unknown to Europeans and having never heard the gospel. The name of Francisco de Vitoria (c. 1492- 1546) the Dominican scholar who taught as Prima Professor with the theology fa- culty at the University of Salamanca from 1526 to 1546, is well-known to interna- tional law historians. This was not always the case. For a long time, international lawyers used to draw their pedigree from the Dutch Protestant Hugo de Groot (or Grotius) (1583-1645) who wrote as advocate of the Dutch East-India company in favour of opening the seas to Dutch commerce against the Spanish-Portuguese monopoly. Still in the 18th and 19th centuries, the law of nations —ius gentium— was seen as a predominantly Protestant discipline that drew its inspiration from the natural law taught by such followers of Grotius as the Saxon Samuel Pufen- dorf (1632-1694) and the Swiss Huguenot Emer de Vattel (1714-1767), followed by a series of professors at 18th century German universities1. It was only towards the late-19th century when the Belgian legal historian Er- nest Nys pointed to the Catholic renewal of natural law during the Spanish siglo de oro that attention was directed to Vitoria and some of his successors, especially the Jesuit Francisco Suárez, (1548-1617), who had indeed developed a universally applicable legal vocabulary —something that late— 19th century jurists, including Nys himself, were trying to achieve2.

  • Legal Imagination in Vitoria : the Power of Ideas
    Legal Imagination in Vitoria. The Power of Ideas Pablo Zapatero* Professor of Public International Law, Carlos III University, Madrid, Spain 1. A Man’s Ideas Legal progress is often propelled by concepts first envisioned in academia. In this light, the present article explores the ideas of a fascinating intellectual figure: Francisco de Vitoria (1483-1546),1 a man broadly recognized as one of the “founding fathers” of international law. The writings and lectures of this 16th century Dominican friar formulated innovative legal doctrines in an age of uncertainty and profound social change; an age that gave birth to the modern States that, with their centralized power, signalled the demise of medieval pluralism, the dismemberment of Christendom, and the erosion of imperial and papal aspirations to universal power. Medieval Europe, before then, had defined itself as a cultural, political and religious unity: the Res Publica Christiana. The first half of the 16th century witnessed the final breakdown of that order, the emergence of the modern sovereign state and the subsequent development of the European state system. It was also in this age that a singular event transformed con- ventional conceptions of the world and consolidated anthropocentrism: the discovery of America.2 A ‘stellar moment’ of literature, political and legal * For correspondence use [email protected].

  • Max Planck Studies in Global Legal History of the Iberian Worlds
    The School of Salamanca: A Case of Global Knowledge Production Max Planck Studies in Global Legal History of the Iberian Worlds Editor Thomas Duve The book volumes in the Max Planck Studies in Global Legal History of the Iberian Worlds publish research on legal history of areas which have been in contact with the Iberian empires during the early Modern and Modern period, in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. Its focus is global in the sense that it is not limited to the imperial spaces as such but rather looks at the globalization of normativities within the space related to these imperial formations. It is global also in another sense: The volumes in the series pay special attention to the coexistence of a variety of normativities and their cultural translations in different places and moments, decentring classical research perspectives and opening up for different modes of normativity. The monographs, edited volumes and text editions in the series are peer reviewed, and published in print and online.

Before the conquest of the Americas, resource scarcity and the need for careful resource management defined Spanish environmental thought. Afterward, the idea that the Americas could provide infinite wealth took precedence. But as the century progressed and the empire declined, people from different parts of Spanish society--municipal councilmen, conquistadors, royal cosmographers, and royal reformers--reconciled these two ideas into one line of thought: abundant

In this walk you will hear some TALES. What is the meaning of tale? Another word for tale is story or narrative and if you look it up in a dictionary it says: a narrative that relates the details of some real or imaginary event, incident, or case; story. Salamanca is a city full of tales. Stories that happened, but perhaps after years the tale is told in a different way or some facts have changed. Hopefully, after this walk you will all feel that you know a little bit more about some interesting places in this city. Now, about the activities that take place during this walk: First of all, I am handing out different WORDS all grouped in a colour. When we stop to hear at an interesting sight during our walk, I will tell you the colour of the tale.

    chapter 1 The School of Salamanca A Case of Global Knowledge Production Thomas Duve 1 Introduction What is today known as the “School of Salamanca” emerged in a time of fundamental political, religious, economic, and cultural transformations. Many of these were linked to early modern (proto- )globalisation and its con- sequences: the Iberian empires were expanding and their territories soon spanned the globe. Europeans encountered territories as well as cultural and political systems they had not known before. At the same time, reformations divided the res publica christiana, leading to huge political turmoil, wars, and the formation of different confessional cultures. The media revolution enabled communication at speeds and scales hitherto unknown and facilitated access to old and an avalanche of new knowledge. Not least because of these changes, early modern republics and monarchies, empires, religious orders, and the Roman Curia refined their techniques of governance. It was in this context that new universities were founded and traditional ones grew, professionalisation increased, and the sciences flourished. The University of Salamanca, founded in 1218, played a key role in this devel- opment, particularly because the Catholic Kings had converted it into their privileged site of knowledge production. In Salamanca, humanists, jurists, cosmographers, theologians, and canonists trained the imperial elite. Here, future bishops, members of the Audiencias, jurists, and missionaries studied the measurement of space and time, the economy, language, faith, law, and justice and injustice. The preeminent scholars of the time came to Salamanca to teach, publishing houses established their officinae in the city, and probably in few places in the empire did so much information about the explorations and discoveries in the Caribbean and the Americas – including the violence, exploitation, and abuses committed by the European invaders – circulate as it did in Salamanca.
