Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes some of the most important real compositions in Aquinas’s metaphysics: form and matter, supposit and nature, substance and accident, as well as act and potency. On some way, act and potency are identified with the other principles insofar as they designate certain constitutive tendencies which other principles have as common. Because of the lack of the space, the most important composition for the Aquinas’s metaphysics have not been considered that is the real composition between esse and essence in created beings.
