Tomás de Vio Cayetano, o la modernidad en letras medievales1

This paper aims to summarize and to evaluate the main features of the recently published book Objetividad y ciencia en Cayetano. Una prefiguración de la Modernidad. As it will be clear, it is a work of great importance to the field of the late scholasticism since it analyzes and demonstrates the disruptive character of some of Cajetan's theses with respect to the thought of Thomas Aquinas, whom he asserts to be commenting on. Those findings imply important consequences for the way of understanding the subsequent development of the Thomistic school which was founded around its legacy.
