Version of the "Scutum Fidei" or "Shield of the Trinity" diagram (here captioned Scutum fidei Christianae, or "Shield of the Christian faith"); the general diagram has been around since the early 13th century, but this particular variant was devised by Jerome of Prague ca. the early 15th century. There are four nodes and six connecting links (as in the standard diagram), but each node has five separate captions, so that this illustration contains five parallel diagrams (all with the same overall central-positive / peripheral-negative structure):
Versions of this illustration in other sources apparently have "intellectus" in place of "ratio", "asinus" in place of "vitulus", "rationalis anima" in place of "anima rationalis", and/or correct spelling "aquila" in place of typo "aquilla" etc. Some of the analogies to the Trinity in the second through fifth diagrams are theologically controversial, and were part of the evidence for heresy accusations against Jerome of Prague. |
