Résumé

This article offers a metaphysical interpretation of the first way of St. Thomas Aquinas, according to which this argument is in itself sufficient to conclude the existence of a first Cause of being, which is itself pure Actuality. The interpretation offered rests fundamentally on the idea that the hierarchical chain of moved movers that leads to the f irst Unmoved Mover must be explained in such a way that the reasoning moves from more particular and less fundamental modes of actuality to others that are more universal and fundamental, until one arrives at the ultimate actuality of being.
