The aim of this research is to make explicit, within a possible and suggestive interpretation, the reasons why Aristotle understood the need to postulate the final way as a way to efficiently carry out the First Philosophy. Thus, we will review his critique of the causes employed by his philosophical tradition: the material, the efficient, and the formal. Finally, having found the reasons for the necessity of postulating a fourth cause, the final one, we will present the cardinal points of his logoi Θ as the conclusion of the founder of the Lyceum with respect to his First Philosophy: the Modal Ontology.
