Dunaton as ‘Capable’ versus ‘Possible’ in Aristotle’s Metaphysics ix 3-4 Gonzalez, Francisco 2022 Ancient Philosophy , Vol. 42 , Issue 2 , S. 453 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 0740-2007 | 2154-4689 Abstract
While Aristotle’s explicit focus in Metaphysics Theta 1-5 is dunamis in the sense of the ‘capability’ a thing has to originate change in something else or in itself qua other, practically all translators, when they arrive at chapter four, switch to ‘possible’ and ‘impossible’ as translations of dunaton and adunaton. Such a switch is neither defensible nor necessary and the relevance of Theta 4 is understood only without it.
