In 1995 Maarten J. F. Hoenen has published an article entitled ?Ista priusinaudita?. Eine neuendeckte Vorlage der Docta ignorantia und ihre Bedeutungfür die frühe Philosophie des Nikolaus von Kues?. The expresion ?Istaprius inaudita? is a quotation from chapter 11 of Book II of De docta ignorantia:?Corollaries regarding motion?. In his paper Hoenen tells us about an anonymoustreatise entitled: Fundamentum naturae quod videtur physicos ignorasse,preserved in the Cod. St. 687 of the University of Eichstätt, ff. 4r-10r.The treatise reproduces with some variations chapters 7-10 of the De docta ignorantiaII. Hoenen?s discovery has opened a debate about the relationship betweenboth works. In this paper I will describe the current state of the art aboutthe problem. I will first present the subject addressed in chapters 7-10 of Dedocta ignorantia II. Secondly, I will summarize Hoenen?s thesis in order toshow his position regarding the problem. Thirdly, I will present the different reactionsin favour or against Hoenen?s thesis. Finally, I will offer some contributionto the described state of art.
