英译术语:

end [telos]

汉语语境:

海德格尔的亚氏解读与亚氏原有思想体系存在一定差异。这一点，可从相关核心概念如潜能、目的因、运动、技艺、本原等彰显出来。概要言之，海氏的亚氏解读较之于亚氏原有思想体系的差异正在于：一，作为整全之“目的因”的隐去；二，以纯粹努斯活动为依归的纯粹实现之神的退场。

英语语境:

The difference between Aristotle’s own thoughts and Heidegger’s interpretation is clear to see. This conclusion comes easily from the analyses of such basic concepts as force, end, actualization, art, origin and movement, and so on. Heidegger’s interpretation is only a mean to build his own philosophy. The differences of the two Sages’thoughts lies in, firstly, the vanishing of the end [telos] as the whole, and secondly the disappearance of the god that is actualized by the activity of pure nous.
