Summary/Abstract: The author critically examines Patzig’s and Frede’s interpretation of the unity of Aristotle’s first philosophy. These are the two relevant contemporary interpretation that consider the issue of unity of Aristotle’s project in Metaphysics “immanently”, ie. which interpretate “general” science of being qua being, and theology, a “special” science of the divine, as a single project. Although the acceptance of the fundamental tensions of Aristotle’s project is necessary for understanding of this project in the first place, the paper tends to show that the way in which Patzig and Frede interpret the unity of Aristotle’s project in Metaphysics is not justified by its very text.
