Passive intellect : ウィキペディア英語版 | Passive intellect The passive intellect, also known as the potential intellect or the material intellect, is a term used in philosophy alongside the notion of the active intellect in order to give an account of the operation of the intellect (''nous''), in accordance with the theory of hylomorphism, as most famously put forward by Aristotle. ==Aristotle== Aristotle gives his most substantial account of the passive intellect (''nous pathetikos'') in ''De Anima (On the Soul''), Book III, chapter 4. In Aristotle's philosophy of mind, the passive intellect "is what it is by becoming all things."〔Aristotle, ''De Anima'', Bk. III, ch. 5 (430a10-25).〕 By this Aristotle means that the passive intellect can potentially become anything by receiving that thing's intelligible form. The active intellect (''nous poietikos'') is then required to illuminate the passive intellect to make the potential knowledge into knowledge in act, in the same way that light makes potential colors into actual colors. The analysis of this distinction is very brief, which has led to dispute as to what it means.
