Sumario:The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between wisdom and the use of luminic metaphors present in the fragments 8b and 8c of On Philosophy. Inthis way, we want to establish whether the use of these metaphors responds to the uses that Aristotle do of perceptual terms in other works, such as the Physics, the Metaphysics, On the soul and the Protrepticus. The objective of this analysis is to examine whether, by making use of luminic metaphors in this fragments, Aristotle assumed the distinction between “better known in itself” and “better known to us”, presented in the works mentioned as “clearer itself” and “clearer to us”, that is, in perceptual terms.
