Francis of Marchia

Francis of Marchia

Francis of Marchia [Francis of Ascoli, Francis de Marcia, Francesco d'Appignano.] (c. 1290 - after 1344) was an Italian Franciscan theologian scholastic philosopher. He was an ally of William of Ockham and Michael of Cesena, and opponent of Pope John XXII, in the struggles of the Franciscan Spirituals, leading to his expulsion from the order in 1329.

He was commenting on the "Sentences" of Peter Lombard around 1320 [ [http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/francis-marchia/primum.html Online text] , [http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/francis-marchia/secundum.html online text] .] , but no longer closely bound to Lombard [George Henry Radcliffe Parkinson, Stuart Shanker, Routledge History of Philosophy" (1999), p. 397.] ; for example he incidentally theorises on projectile motion [A. C. Crombie, "Medieval and Early Modern Science", II (1959 edition), pp. 59-60.] , views now thought to be taken from Richard Rufus of Cornwall [Jorge J. E. Gracia, Timothy B. Noone (editors), "A Companion to Philosophy in the Middle Ages" (2003), p. 580.] . He was nicknamed "Doctor Succinctus" [Frederick Copleston, "A History of Philosophy" III (1999 edition), p. 124.] [Also "Doctor Praefulgens" or "Praefulgidus", "Doctor Distinctivus", "Doctor Illustratus" (Schneider p. 33 and [http://www.francescodappignano.it/priori.htm] ).] .

In the mid-1320s he took a position at Avignon, where Ockham was at the time [Paul Vincent Spade, "The Cambridge Companion to Ockham" (1999), p. 25.] .
