Marsile de Padoue

Marsile de Padoue , in Italian Marsilio or Marsiglio da Padova (towards 1275 - towards 1342) was a political theorist Italy N very violently opposed to the temporal claims of the Papauté.

For this reason, it had in particular a controversy with Augustin d' Ancône, defender of the Théocratie. He is opposed to the theses of Saint Augustin. For him, the State is exclusively a company of material interests, a purely terrestrial apparatus of power. Its work which can appear very radical in medieval period is continued and moderated by the philosopher Guillaume d' Occam.

It specifies its theories in its Defensor pacis in 1324.
