实体论是亚里士多德第一哲学的核心。本文重心不在于探讨亚里士多德实体观前后演变的内在线索,而是要着重讨论其实体学说中的潜能问题。潜能与实现,质料和形式,正是亚里士多德实体论中的两对重要范畴。而潜能,更是沟通了质料与形式,连接静止和运动。质料以潜能的方式等待自己的形式——就像化茧成蝶的那一刻,即使化蝶意味着茧的消逝,即使形式的完满同时就意味着完成的终结。但化蝶那一刻的美丽,是只属于潜能的惊艳。
Entity is the core of Aristotle’s first philosophy. The focus of this paper is not to explore the intrinsic clues about the evolution of Aristotle ’s concept of entity, but to focus on the potential problems in his substantive theory. Potential and realization, material and form, are exactly two important categories in Aristotelian theory of matter. The potential, but also communicate the quality and form, the connection still and exercise. The material awaits its own form in the same way as the potential - just as the moment when the cocoon turns into a cocoon, even the formalization of the cocoon means the end of the completion. However, the beauty of the butterfly at the moment, is only the potential of stunning.
