Annotatio I §.IV close IMPLICITE Pontificii: Double trope under the species — stop before Lutheran IMPLICITE

Click or tap any sentence to jump there. The side buttons skip a paragraph.

IMPLICITE, whoever interprets the proposition otherwise than the Reformed also make it tropical — Pontificians and Lutherans alike — even while both fight explicitly for word-propriety as for hearth and altar.

The Pontificians’ That which is contained under the species of bread and wine is my body embeds a double trope: synecdoche (this → accidents) and metonymy of container for contained.

Swap This is my body for under these accidents is my body and you deny proper hearing in the act — subject and attribute seats flip, and This is falsely traded for under these species (Gomarus, p. 142).

Stop before Lutheran IMPLICITE readings (Luther’s in/cum/sub; Flacius’s duplex mass).

Latin

IMPLICITE vero tropicam efficiunt propositionem quicunque hactenus aliter quam Reformati, eam interpretati sunt, tam Pontificii, quàm Lutherani, utrique tamen explicitè pro proprietate verborum, tanquam pro aris & focis, dimicantes. PONTIFICII propositionem: Hoc est corpus meum, interpretati per hanc: Id quod continetur sub speciebus panis & vini, est corpus meum, duplicem tropum ei inesse disertè ostendunt, primò Synechdochen, quum hoc (quod demonstrat substantiam cum accidentibus) ad accidentia propriè pertinere statuitur; deinde Metonymiam Continentis pro Contento. Taceo, dicentem, Propositionem, Hoc est corpus meum, tantundem significare, quantum, sub hisce speciebus seu accidentibus est corpus meum, re ipsâ negare verba illa propriè & ut sonant, accipienda, suâque ἐκθέσει hypothesin subvertere. Assertionis ratio solida est, quia hoc modo pervertitur (1) Subjecti & Attributi sedes: nam corpus meum fit Subjectum, & Hoc, Attributum. Deinde, sensus vocis, Hoc, falso & indoctè permutatur verbis istis, sub Hoc, vel sub hisce speciebus i. e. accidentibus, quae toto categoriae genere differunt, Gomar. loc. cit. p. 142. num. 63. 64.
