This aspect of Marsilius thought is often overlooked, as most researcherstend to concentrate on his political ideas. The author of the article first analyzes the foundations ofMarsilius’ theology – his vision of salvation, the quasi-pelagian notion of grace, the concept divine lawand the definition of the Church. Also analyzed in detail is the notion of priesthood and the conceptof authority in the Church – his conciliar theory and rejection of the papal primacy.
