Gonsalvus of Spain

Gonsalvus Hispanus (c. 1255-1313) was a Spanish Franciscan theologian and scholastic philosopher, who became Minister General of the Order of Friars Minor.

He taught at the University of Paris, where he carried out a disputation with Meister Eckhart in 1303. [ [http://assets.cambridge.org/97805216/32058/sample/9780521632058ws.pdf PDF] p.4.] He was expelled from Paris as a papal supporter, in the dispute with Philip IV of France. [Ibid. p.5.] He came across the younger Duns Scotus and supported him, appointing him regent master of the Franciscans there in 1304. [ Ibid., p.2, 5.]
