Abstract
The author offers a Hegelian interpretation of Metaphysics XII, 7, 1072b 18-30, the passage with which the Encyclopedia of the Philosophical Sciences concludes. Here the relations and similarities that exist between Aristotle's Unmoved Mover and Hegel's Absolute are sketched. In order to understand in which points both thinkers coincide when describing divine thought, it is highly important to analyze the notions of thought, movement, power, act, concept, object, material substance, formal substance and suprasensible substance. The interpretative turn that Hegel gives to the Metaphysics and the comparative reading here offered, point towards a better understanding of the nature of the Unmoved Mover and the Absolute.
