St. Bonaventure and the

Problem of Doctrinal Development

John R. White

Abstract. Te problem o doctrinal development, frst ormulated by John Henry

Newman, is usually assumed to be a distinctly modern theological issue, since itoriginates in modern scholarly history and its application to problems o doctrine.My thesis, in contrast, is that St. Bonaventures theology o history as presentedin his Hexaemeron is also a theory o doctrinal developmentthough it appearssome six hundred years prior to Newmans Essay on the Development of ChristianDoctrine. I begin by discussing the relationship between theology o history anddoctrinal development, rom which I conclude Bonaventures theology o historyis a theory o doctrinal development. Secondly, I discuss Bonaventures theoryand how he uses it to justiy the mendicant and Franciscan ways o lie. Finally,

I develop elements o Cardinal Newmans theory as points or comparison andevaluation o Bonaventures theory.

ntroduction. One does not oten see the notion o doctrinal developmentcoupled with the name o a medieval scholastic. Among the reasonsor this is the widely held assumption that the problem o doctrinal

development is only ormulated in the nineteenth century, ater the advent othe academic discipline o history and its application to problems o doctrine.Only then, so it is assumed, could the issues o doctrinal variation clearly comeinto ocus and, only then, would there be a need to posit a theory both explain-ing the nature o doctrinal development and articulating criteria by which to

judge what counts as valid versus invalid development. On this account, then,theories o doctrinal development come out o a set o specialized circumstancesarising rom nineteenth-century scholarship.

However plausible this assumption might seem, I believe St. Bonaventurepresents, at least in a rudimentary orm, what must be understood as a theory odoctrinal development in his Lectures on the Six Days of Creationa text writtensome six hundred years prior to Newmans Essay on the Development of Christian
