Resumo: O presente estudo investiga se, para Tomás de Aquino, a filosofia natural enquanto matriz disciplinar faz referência à imaterialidade. Para tanto, inicialmente é discutida a questão sobre a relação entre a filosofia natural e a imaterialidade a partir da temática que aborda a locomoção celeste. Posterior­mente, o estudo se concentra na diferença entre a filosofia natural de Tomás e a filosofia natural de Aristóteles. Enfim, o texto conclui mostrando a razão central pela qual a filosofia natural de Tomás requer que o primum principium motus seja imaterial e eficiente.Abstract: The present study investigates whether, for Thomas Aquinas, natural philosophy as a disciplinary matrix refers to immateriality. In order to do so, the relation between natural philosophy and immateriality is first discussed based on the question of celestial locomotion. Subsequently, the study focuses on the difference between Thomas Aquinas’ natural philosophy and Aristotle’s natural philosophy. Finally, it shows the central reason why the author’s natural philosophy requires the primum principium motus to be immaterial and efficient.
