Polysemy of the term 'potency' in the Philosophy of Mind of Thomas Aquinas
Is it correct to say that there is philosophy of mind in Aquinas’ most mature works? Or is his philosophy of mind just an issue of his early thought, inherited from the Augustinian tradition, and which, after the surfacing of the works of Aristotle, would have stricto sensu shifted into a philosophy...

I28-R145-7760_oai2025-11-17 Argüello, Santiago 2014-12-05 Is it correct to say that there is philosophy of mind in Aquinas’ most mature works? Or is his philosophy of mind just an issue of his early thought, inherited from the Augustinian tradition, and which, after the surfacing of the works of Aristotle, would have stricto sensu shifted into a philosophy of soul? This is the fundamental question that underlies an interesting discussion raised a few years ago among some English-speaking scholars about Thomas Aquinas’ thought. The discussion is picked up here in order to point out a possible way to solve it. This consists on the distinction between three different senses of the term “potency” in Aquinas’ philosophy, which leads to realize that there is no opposition between Augustinism and Aristotelianism in Aquinas. ¿Es correcto decir que hay una filosofía de la mente en las obras de madurez de Tomás? ¿O es su filosofía de la mente solo una cuestión de su pensamiento temprano, heredado de la tradición agustiniana, y que, después de la aparición de las obras de Aristóteles, habría cambiado stricto sensu hacia una filosofía del alma? Esta es la pregunta fundamental que subyace a una interesante discusión planteada hace unos años entre algunos estudiosos de habla inglesa sobre el pensamiento de Tomás de Aquino. La discusión se recoge aquí para señalar una posible forma de resolverla. Esto consiste en la distinción entre tres sentidos diferentes del término “potencia” en la filosofía de Tomás de Aquino, lo que lleva a sostener que no hay oposición entre el agustinismo y el aristotelismo en Tomás. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7760 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7760/6827 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 35 (2014); 15-30 2683-9636 Tomás de Aquino Filosofía de la mente Filosofía del alma potencia interpretación Thomas Aquinas Philosophy of Mind Philosophy of Soul Potency Interpretation Polysemy of the term 'potency' in the Philosophy of Mind of Thomas Aquinas Polisemia del término 'potencia' en la filosofía tomística de la mente info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=7760_oai |
