Some have said it is the divine mind, others a god-like power of the human soul. Most begin by asking what the active intellect is; instead, I first ask what it does. I argue that the active intellect plays a distinctive role in learning and discovery by making intelligible objects available for thought. To understand this role more precisely, I consider Aristotle s idea that we learn by doing: not only do we become builders by building and brave by doing brave things, but we also get knowledge of triangles by thinking about triangles. In my investigation into his account of learning I draw on the Posterior Analytics and Metaphysics. I conclude that Aristotle distinguishes two sorts of intellectual activity when students are learning about triangles: they think about specific proofs to gradually grasp them, but they can also manipulate diagrams to discover proofs not yet considered, perhaps by drawing parallel lines or bisecting angles. This latter activity, by which students search for and uncover intelligible content in perceptual particulars, is the distinctive function of the active intellect.

7 BUTTACI ~ CV 7 DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Aristotle understands intellect by an analogy with perception: in both cases some receptive power is informed by some object in the world. Perceptual acts result when perceptual capacities are suitably acted upon by perceptible objects; intellectual acts result when intellectual capacities are suitably acted upon by intelligible objects. After discussing the receptive intellect, however, Aristotle introduces another intellect the active intellect which is not receptive like perceptual capacities but is instead like light. This light-like intellect has been vigorously debated over the centuries. Outside of an infamously difficult and compressed chapter, On the Soul III.5, Aristotle does not mention it. Agreement is scarce while perplexity abounds, leaving even Theophrastus, Aristotle s immediate successor, with questions about what this active intellect might be. But instead of asking what the active intellect is, I begin by asking what it does. This function first approach helps avoid a common interpretive impasse regarding the active intellect s identity. Furthermore, this approach promises to shed light on important epistemological questions about how perception and imagination inform and constrain intellectual activity. On my view of the light analogy, the active intellect s function is to activate potentially intelligible objects, just as light activates potentially visible objects, which Aristotle says in a way makes colors existing potentially to be colors in activity. Now, others interpret this analogy differently. Since they begin by asking what the active intellect is, they have the advantage of pointing to concrete instances in Aristotle s thought where something fills the role they go on to attribute to the active intellect. Some say that it is the divine intellect, causing the general intelligibility of the world. In support, they cite passages on god, for example from Metaphysics XII, that fit well with Aristotle s abstract descriptions of the active intellect. Others say it is human knowledge or a sort of intellectual will, initiating particular episodes of thinking. They cite passages from On the Soul where Aristotle clearly indicates that those who possess geometrical knowledge can think about geometrical truths (e.g.) about triangles whenever they wish. While these rival interpretations can cite concrete instances of something filling the role they assign to the active intellect, neither gives a strict reading of the light analogy. On the divine-mind reading, the active intellect makes the world intelligible in general, but this is analogous to giving the world color, not illuminating a world that is already colored in itself. On the intellectual-will reading, the active intellect triggers particular episodes of thinking, but this is analogous to the activation of particular acts of vision, not potential colors. Further, Aristotle does not even mention the visual capacity in the light analogy: there, light activates unlit colors. And while many take Aristotle s remark in a way to invite a looser comparison, on my view it flags that this description of light is not his settled, scientific view things. So, I take the comparison very strictly, since this somewhat stretched description of light s activity is illuminating of the active intellect s distinctive function: it activates potentially intelligible objects just as light (in a way) activates potentially visible objects. My interpretation faces a significant hurdle, however, and one that the rivals can avoid: what activity could activating potentially intelligible objects describe? Where in Aristotle do we find a concrete case of something playing this role? Because of this hitherto unanswered question, an otherwise inviting interpretation seems to be blocked, leaving many to settle for looser readings of the light analogy that connect more clearly with passages outside of this brief and difficult chapter. My dissertation goes on to develop a concrete answer to the question, What is the active intellect s function? I begin with a hypothesis that activating potentially intelligible objects plays some role in learning and discovery. Accordingly, I consider Aristotle s general account of learning, beginning with his thought that we learn to φ by φ-ing. This strikes many as difficult, since we obviously cannot exercise a capacity we do not yet have. But Aristotle nevertheless insists on the similarity between the student s unrefined prior activity and the expert s perfected activity: both the student and the expert do geometrical things, but only the expert does them geometrically, that is, in accord with his own geometrical knowledge. I develop a new interpretation of this distinction, drawing on another of Aristotle s distinctions between grades of capacity. On my view, a student s capacity to learn is the very same capacity exercised beforehand when engaged in learning. And since students themselves must be actively engaged in their own learning, they must
8 BUTTACI ~ CV 8 already have a capacity to act and not merely to be acted upon by a teacher. What is acquired through learning, such as knowledge or virtue, is not so much a new capacity, but rather a developed state of a capacity that the student already had. First potentiality, as it has come to be called, is a capacity not only to learn but also to engage in the relevant prior activity. For Aristotle, then, geometrical knowledge is not passively absorbed from a teacher, like sight put into blind eyes (to borrow a line from Plato s Republic), but rather students themselves must engage in geometrical activity, albeit in an unrefined way. But a teacher still seems to be necessary here: unrefined prior activity alone cannot explain successful learning that results in a correct grasp of things. Something must guide students prior activity so that it is gradually refined in the right way. I have found that Aristotle draws a distinction between two very different kinds of activity involved in learning and discovery. On the one hand, geometry students must consider particular proofs and features of triangles in an unrefined way as geometrical knowledge gradually settles in. On the other hand, some students also learn and deploy general strategies for solving problems they do not yet know how to solve, perhaps by drawing parallel lines or bisecting angles. While in many cases this is facilitated by a teacher, in some cases students themselves make these discoveries. So, this second sort of activity uncovers features of geometrical diagrams that were only implicitly present to students before, thereby making some geometrical feature available for thinking and learning. While the first sort of activity is receptive of some intelligible object, Aristotle describes this second activity as active and productive. This latter activity, I conclude, is the distinctive function of the active intellect. It is productive in a way analogous to light, which does not create the color of things but rather reveals colored things as they already are. So too, the active intellect activates potentially intelligible objects by uncovering and making them actually available for thinking and learning. Furthermore, returning to an important epistemological concern, for Aristotle all thinking requires an image, since intellectual activity is considering some intelligible form in an image. On my view, then, the active intellect works principally on images, making them suitable material for correct thinking. Images, insofar as they represent perceptual particulars, are the potentially intelligible objects that are activated for learning and discovery, as when a student draws a parallel line to discover the solution to a geometrical proof. The active intellect therefore directs our perceptual engagement in learning, so that we may hunt down, discover, and intellectual consider the correct intelligible forms in the images.
