Francisco Zumel

Philosophy of Religion

Francisco Zumel (about 1540 to 1607) was a Spanish philosopher and ecclesiastic of the Mercedarian Order, of which he was superior general. He was professor of physics and moral philosophy at the University of Salamanca and was a Thomist, remembered above all for his polemical writings against the Molinists, the followers of the Jesuit Luis de Molina in the dispute over grace and free will. His works were written in Latin, and some of them remain unpublished in the Vatican Library.
