L'infinito in Aristotele fra fisica, matematica e metafisica

Only recently scholars focus their attention on "Physics"’ Gamma - which deals with the treatment of movement and infinity. In the second half of the twentieth century, there has been a growing interest in the Aristotelian infinity, and therefore in "Physics": is Aristotle's infinity a reality of the noetic sphere, or is it a reality external to thought, belonging to the sphere of experience? Is Aristotelian infinity mere potentiality and negativity, or can we see a certain "actuality" in its existence? In my investigation, I focus not only on an ontological perspective: rather, I will try to highlight how to achieve an adequate understanding of infinity by taking into account physical-cosmological, mathematical-geometric and also metaphysical problems. However, this perspective on the problem of infinity does not suggest that for Aristotle there are three different infinities, but one and the same infinite: the infinite presented in "Phys." Γ and the one presented in "Phys." Θ are not in a contradictory relationship with each other, but they complete and explain each other. Finally, Aristotle's ἄπειρον must be conceived as the result of the intertwining of the three different theoretical dimensions of physics, mathematics and metaphysics, all of which are not in a relationship of strong separation, but in a fluid and interconnected relationship.
