Resumo
Neste artigo, procuro mostrar como a teoria dos números transfinitos de Cantor e a teoria dos números transreais admitem ser compreendidas filosoficamente a partir de alguns conceitos da metafísica tomista. Para que tal entendimento seja possível, admito a tese de que os conceitos tomistas de matéria designada, não-designada e prima podem ser relacionados com as noções cantorianas de número ordinal e cardinal transfinitos e com o número “nullity”, da teoria dos números transreais, respectivamente. Com tal correlação, creio estabelecer uma base dialógica entre a ontologia tomista e a matemática do infinito e do indeterminado.
