Abstract

Relying on Ambrosianus G 69 inf., a philosophical miscellany owned by the celebrated collector Gian Vincenzo Pin elli, this article examines an unpublished disputation about mathematical abstraction. In it, the Dominican theologian Tommaso Pellegrini defends traditional Aristotelian views on subalternate sciences; by contrast, Pompeo da Otranto offers a rebuttal anchored on Odcham's theory of intellectual habits. The reconstruction of this epistemic debate sheds much needed light on various forms of assembling Aristotle within the protocols of Pinelli's scholarship and paperwork.
