Study Notes

  • Derecho Natural es un tipo de orden normativo que tiene relación con la naturaleza humana, no con su naturaleza física.
  • Derecho Natural es distinto al Derecho Positivo: es independiente del concenso.
  • Aristóteles parte la Metafísica diciendo que todos los hombres por naturaleza desean saber.
  • El sabio sabe todo, en el sentido de que no sabe todo de todo, sino que conoce todas las causas, y por fuerza de los argumentos, las consecuencias.
  • Las ciencias especulativas son las que se desprenden del conocimiento de la realidad, sin que ello suponga una modificiación de esta.
  • The two main types of science are philosophy and physics.
  • Philosophy studies the good life, while physics studies the nature of things.
  • Both of these types of science are concerned with everything that belongs to the subject matter, which in this case is the being (entity).
  • Metaphysics is the science of the being as being. This means that nothing in the world is outside of metaphysics.
  • Movement is also a part of metaphysics, and it is not limited to the actions of humans. For example, “the syndrome of restless legs” is a natural act.
  • Aquinas says that some actions are not voluntary, but are instead natural.
