Abstract

In his Metaphysics, Aristotle claims that he is seeking to establish a science of being. Being, at the most general level, is divided by Aristotle into the following four types: 1. Accidental being 2. Being as truth 3. Potential/actual being l 4. Per se being Per se (kath hauto) being can also be translated as "being in its own right" or "intrinsic being". This type of being has been referred to by Aristotle in different ways. The list of per se beings includes substance, quantity, quality, place, time, etc. , and this is also the list ofcategories. At Meta. ix. l, 1045b28 Aristotle calls this list the "categories of being" (hai kategoriai tou ontos). At Meta. vi. 2, 1026a36 and ix. 1O, 1051a33-b2 per se being is called "being with reference to the figures ofpredication" (ta schemata tes kategorias, or "figures ofcategories,,). 2 Of these four types of being, accidental being is briefly treated in Meta. vi. 2-3 and there Aristotle claims that the study of accidental being can be dismissed on the grounds that accidental being is indeterminate and cannot be 3 the object ofknowledge. He also does not pay much attention to being as truth and treats it briefly in two short texts: Meta. viA and ix. 1O.

Abstract

Né en Égypte au début du IIIe siècle apr. J.-C., Plotin s'installe à Rome en 246, en terre stoïcienne, pour y enseigner les principes d'une philosophie platonicienne et y inaugurer la tradition qu'on dit aujourd'hui « néoplatonicienne ». De 254 jusqu'à la veille de sa mort, en 270, Plotin rédige un ensemble de textes que son disciple Porphyre éditera vers l'année 300 en les distribuant en cinquante-quatre traités, regroupés en six « neuvaines » : les Ennéades. Dans ces traités, Plotin se propose de guider l'âme de son lecteur sur le chemin d'une ascèse qui doit la conduire vers son principe, «l'Intellect » et lui permettre alors de percevoir, pour s'y unir, le principe de toutes choses qu'est « l'Un ».
