 The resulting separation and the ensuing struggle of the medieval viae did not end with the victory of the one over the other. Instead, due to the primarily semantic nature of the separation, getting the parties embroiled in increasingly complicated ways of talking past each other, thereby generating an ever growing dissatisfaction, even contempt, in a new, lay, humanist  intelligentsia,[59]  it ended with the demise of the characteristically medieval conceptual frameworks of both viae in the late-medieval and early modern period.
