CAMILLO, SILVANA GABRIELA DI. The Notion of Nature in Aristotle in the Context of His Criticisms to Plato. Rev. latinoam. filos. [online]. 2021, vol.47, n.2, pp.312-331. ISSN 1852-7353. http://dx.doi.org/10.36446/rlf2021191.
In this paper, I propose to explain the Aristotelian notion of nature in the context of his criticisms to Plato. Firstly, I will briefly consider Plato’s proposal in the Phaedo and Aristotle’s criticisms of Ideas as causes in Metaphysics I 9; secondly, I will analyze the definition of physis in Physics II 1 as an inner principle of motion; finally, I will try to show how this notion can be better understood in the context of Plato’s appropriation and criticism, not only for its characteristic immanence but also for its eternity through the natural generation. The Aristotelian notion of physis allows to account for both the essential properties and the processes experienced by natural entities.
