Abstract
Both Aquinas and Bonaventure have dedicated some passages of their commentary on Peter Lombard's Sentences to address the role of passions vis-à-vis the self-mastery performed by the will. In order to underscore the differences between both proposals, some authors (v.gr. N. LOMARDO, The Logic of Desire) have posed the existence of a better capability of will in Aquinas to rule the passions of the concupiscible and irascible appetites, as opposed to a less availability of the passions to be manageable in Bonaventure, seemingly due to a supposed autonomy of the passions before the will and as if they were an inherent 'threat' to virtue according to the latter. This article discuss to what extent that comparison portraits Bonaventure's opinion on the matter. © 2017 Vita e Pensiero/Pubblicazioni dell'Universitá Cattolica del Sacro Cuore.
