Transsubstantiation

De wiki en anglais: The earliest known use of the term "transubstantiation" to describe the change from bread and wine to body and blood of Christ was by Hildebert de Lavardin, Archbishop of Tours (died 1133), in the eleventh century and by the end of the twelfth century the term was in widespread use.[4] In 1215, the Fourth Council of the Lateran spoke of the bread and wine as "transubstantiated" into the body and blood of Christ: "His body and blood are truly contained in the sacrament of the altar under the forms of bread and wine, the bread and wine having been transubstantiated, by God's power, into his body and blood."[5] Ce terme n'a rien à voir avec la doctrine aristotélicienne : on parle de substance et d'"espèces" (mauvaise translittération pour species, apparences, ce qui est visible : même racine que le mot spectateur).
