Title: Miguel Bombarda e Manuel Fernandes Santana: um confronto de ideias
Authors: Neto, Vítor
Issue Date: 2003

Abstract: Ao assumir uma concepção monista do universo, Miguel Bombarda contrariava o conservadorismo ideológico sustentado pelos pensadores católicos. Influenciado pelo materialismo mecanicista, utilizava a sua ideologia cientista para fundamentar as origens da vida, a auto- suficiência da matéria, a consciência do homem e a moral. Ao monismo de Bombarda, opôs o padre Manuel Fernandes Santana uma visão dualista do cosmos. Para este, a matéria, o movimento e as energias cósmicas encontravam a sua explicação última em Deus. A polémica entre os dois intelectuais radicava em mundi vidências antagónicas.
Assuming a monist understanding of the Universe, Miguel Bombarda contradicted the ideological conservatism of catholic thinkers. Influenced by mechanistic materialism, he made use of his science based ideology to provide grounds for the explanation of the origins of life, self-sufficiency of matter, human conscience and morals. To the monism of Bombarda, father Manuel Fernandes Santana opposed a dualistic comprehension of the cosmos: for him, matter, movement, and the cosmic energies find their ultimate explanation in God. The controversy between the two intellectuals took root in their antagonistic ways of conceiving the World.
