This paper draws attention to an issue that
preoccupied Joan Lluís Vives (1492/93–1540) quite frequently, namely the right
assessment of reality (“incorrupte iudicare”, to judge without error) and,
related to this, the attainability or unattainability of truth. Special emphasis
is given to the process of approving or disapproving a certain reasoning, to the
sources that can provide trustworthy information, to the dual role that
emotions play, and to the potential influence from the Skeptical tradition.
According to Vives, the fact that the mind aims for, and thinks about, items which
cannot be realized in this life may be proof of an afterlife.
Keywords: emotion, error, judgment, truth.
