| contents | Aristotle and Johnston on Hylomorphism and the Character of Objects Christos Y. Panayides Filosofía form matter essence Johnston Aristotle As M. Loux has recently reminded us, there are two basic strategies for explaining the character of particular objects, the ‘relational approach’ and the ‘constituent approach’. The prime example of a constituent approach would be Aristotelian hylomorphism. This article reveals three things. First, it gives a roadmap towards what the author considers to be the exegetically correct reconstruction of Aristotle’s hylomorphic theory. Second, it provides a presentation of the basic claims of a neo-Aristotelian hylomorphic theory, the one argued for by M. Johnston. Finally, it argues that regardless of whatever shortcomings it may have, Aristotle’s theory has an advantage over that proposed by Johnston. Unlike Johnston’s theory, it may give us a complete account of the character of a particular object. 2021 artículo científico 1392-1126 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=694573984005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6945/694573984005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6945/694573984005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6945/694573984005/694573984005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6945/694573984005/movil https://doi.org/10.15388/Problemos.100.5 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6945 Problemos application/pdf Vilniaus Universitetas Problemos (Lituania) Vol.100 |
