4 Poetical Techne, Tragic Techne Approaching the distinctive subject matter of the Poetics by way of general and artistic techne enables us to understand its title, Aristotle’s About Poetical Techne. It narrows techne down from its general to its generic to its subgeneric level of poetical art. But it does not narrow it down to its specific level of tragic art. The treatise’s dealing with artistic techne generically as well as subgenerically and specifically is in accord with Aristotle’s normal approach to any subject matter.

I have translated symbebekenai as “function” rather than as “attribute,” for the sense of the passage demands it. Aristotle is not distinguishing between fire’s own physis and an accidental attribute it may have, but rather between that physis and its constitutive role in the being of an ousia, its functioning as part of the material cause.
Only in this way can a thing actually be, for: “[I]t is not possible for anything indeterminate to be” (kai apeiroi oudeni estin einai; Met. II. 994b26–27; XI. 1066b1–2; 11–12). Met. IX. 7 therefore sanctions paronymy as the linguistic form that expresses the status of the constitutive matter as determinable. For a thing to become good is therefore simply for it to become, to come into actual being. And since that actual being consists in its immanent form-matter (actuality-potentiality) constitution, its coming into being must consist in the coming about of this constitution.
