Abstract:
The most important aspect of the Ernst Bloch`s philosophy is based in the statement: “S is not yet P” - an ontological premise that underlies all ramifications of his thinking. In this sense, Bloch says: “the proletariat is not yet sublated, nature is not yet home, the real is not yet articulated reality”, all this is in process, and the task of philosophy is to considerer the real possibilities of what is not-yet-become and change the world in accordance with what could be. Our intention is to contribute to the investigation of the fundamental premises of Blochian thought, especially his ontology of the not-yet, based on a theory of possibilities that intends to reinterpret the Aristotelian concept of matter.
