English summary: In these two treatises, William Ockham (1285-1347) finds himself force to defend his metaphysical theories on the real prensence of the body of Christ in the Eucharist. Applying the analysis now associated with his name, Ockhams razor, he argues that quantity is not distinct from substance or quality, and show that nothing in the Bible or canon law obligates him to renounce his reductionist theories. Ockhams ideas would exert substantial influence over later theologians, as well as philosophers well into the twentieth century. French translation based on the recent critical edition. French description: Dans les deux traites Sur la quantite et Sur le corps du Christ, Guillaume d'Ockham (1285-1347), theologien anglais connu pour son nominalisme, repond a des detracteurs qui l'accusent de defendre des theses metaphysiques incompatibles avec la doctrine catholique de la presence reelle du corps du Christ dans l'hostie lors du sacrement de l'Eucharistie. Le sujet est brulant: on lui oppose les accusations que Richard de Mediavilla (1249-1302) a portees contre Pierre de Jean Olivi (1248-1298), theologien dissident dont les ecrits ont ete interdits par l'ordre franciscain. Ockham leur repond dans les deux traites dont nous proposons la premiere traduction depuis leur edition critique. Il affirme que la these reductionniste qu'il soutient, selon laquelle la quantite n'est pas reellement distincte de la substance ou de la qualite, est philosophiquement defendable. Plus encore, selon Ockham, la valeur explicative de sa these est plus grande que celle de la these de ses adversaires realistes, au premier rang desquels il place Thomas d'Aquin et Jean Duns Scot. Pour defendre ses idees, Ockham recourt a une version tres elaboree du principe d'economie ou rasoir , auquel son nom est souvent associe. Enfin, il montre que rien, dans le Droit Canon ni dans la Bible, ne le contraint a renoncer a sa these reductionniste. Ockham legue a la posterite deux traites d'une tres grande importance dans l'histoire des sciences du Moyen Age tardif. La these selon laquelle la quantite n'est pas reellement distincte de la substance ou de la qualite a, en effet, des consequences importantes pour le debat sur la structure du continu qui fait rage a l'Universite d'Oxford depuis le debut du XIVe siecle. La position d'Ockham sera adoptee par les nominalistes du XIVe siecle comme Jean Buridan et elle sera discutee jusqu'a la fin du Moyen Age. Elle fait partie des diverses positions regroupees sous le nom de geometrie sans points , au meme titre que celles d'Alfred Tarski ou d'Alfred Whitehead, eminents logiciens du XXe siecle. Ces deux traites ont egalement exerce une influence determinante sur les theologies de l'Eucharistie du Moyen Age tardif, cadre de reflexion theologique et metaphysique par excellence. L'interpretation qu'Ockham propose de ce sacrement sera adoptee par les theologiens nominalistes, de Pierre d'Ailly (1351-1420) a Gabriel Biel (1420-1495), et elle influencera de maniere indirecte la doctrine lutherienne de la presence repletive de Dieu dans l'univers.
