Question

It’s not the Sorbonne, but Robert Bellarmine and a thinker at this university argued that grace becomes efficacious when God engineers circumstances where it will be freely accepted, a view known as “congruism.” In an appendix to his manual for confessors, a thinker at this university explained inflation using an early form of the quantity (15[2])theory of money. (15[1])A thinker at this university considered the truth of sentences like “the gryphon is fierce” that concern entia rationis, or (*) “beings of reason,” at the end of his Metaphysical Disputations. (10[2])A thinker at this university (10[1])argued that restraint of proselytization or trade provided “just title” (10[1])for war, but papal supremacy and discovery did not in his lectures De Indis, which influenced (10[1])the Valladolid debates. For 10 points, (10[1])name this university, whose namesake “school” of scholastic philosophy included Francisco de Vitoria and Francisco Suárez. ■END■

ANSWER: University of Salamanca [or Universidad de Salamanca or School of Salamanca] (Martín de Azpilcueta Navarro independently discovered the quantity theory of money.)
