Baianism is a term applied to the school of thought of Catholic theologian Michael Baius (1513-1589).[1] Its foremost apologists, Baius among them, largely claimed this school and its teachings to be a return to a sort of Augustinianism, against the reliance on Scholasticism and Scholastic writings which held sway over most Catholic theologians at the time.[2] It is the immediate historical predecessor of Jansenism, and, as with Jansenism, has been deemed heterodox by the Catholic Church.
