Aristóteles y el principio de individuación
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is, from the analysis of Metaphysics Z 1034a5-9, to establish what is the principle of individuation for Aristotle. In order to fulfill this task, the text is divided into four sections. In the first of them we present, grosso modo, what the mentioned principle consists of and the candidates for it. In the second, we expose matter (hyle/ὕλη) as a principle of individuation and, in the third, the form (eîdos/εἶδος also morphé/μορφή), together with the problems that each perspective entails. Finally, we propose an alternative way of understanding form as a principle of individuation and matter as a necessary condition for it.
