Abstract :
This article examines the attitude of the German Dominican historian Heinrich Denifle (1844-1905) towards Meister Eckhart. It explores whether, behind Denifle’s criticism of his fellow Dominican, there are valid philosophical arguments that could be relevant to contemporary Eckhart scholarship. In doing so, the article argues for the philosophical significance of polemics that may initially appear to be merely historically contingent.
