Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DRO-ECG
DURAND, GUILLAUME (d. 1334) , French scholastic theologian, known also by the Latin form of his name as DURANDUS of St Pourgain (de Sancto Porciano) , and as
Doctor
  Resolutissimus, was born at St Pourgain-sur-Sioule in the Bourbonnois. He entered the Dominican order at Clermont, and in 1313 was made a
doctor
  in Paris, where he taught till
Pope
  John XXII. called him to
Avignon
  as master of the sacred palace, i.e. theological adviser and preacher to the
pope
 . He subsequently became
bishop
  of Limoux (1317), of Le Puy (1318) and of Meaux (1326). He composed a commentary on the Sentences of Peter Lombard, in which, breaking with the
realism
  of St
Thomas
  Aquinas, he anticipated the terminism of William of Occam, and gave up the attempt to show that dogmas can be demonstrated by reason. In the question of the beatific vision, arising out of opinions promulgated by John XXII. (q.v.), he sided with
Thomas
  Walleis, Armand de Bellovisu and the doctors of the faculty of theology in Paris against the pope, and composed his De statu animarum post separationem a cor pore. Mention should also be made of his De origin jurisdictionum quibus populus regitur, sive de jurisdictione ecclesiastica et de legibus.

Litteratur and Kirchengeschichte, ii. (1886); U. Chevalier, Rep. des sources hist. du moyen age, s.v. Durand de St Pourgain.
