To avoid idealism, Aristotle emphasizes the priority of reality.
philosophical mode mind the reality is the notion of being.
things in terms that are real, they are called entities.
Aristotle uses the word ousia to say that authorities are not merely ontic.
ousia is an abstract of the present participle of the verb einai . It's like noting that the reality is true, the ontological being is, in itself has its own consistency true.
truths are not in the world of ideas but in things.
And that being true is the essence, ousia , which is poured into Latin with the word essentia . Essence is the truth of each thing, its being in itself, true. (Truth is the unveiling of being). Ente
true as ousia is not exactly the same as the entity that corresponds to the truth just as well known. The truth in my mind is also real, but a truth-reality. Truth is to be distinct from ontological being.
Being and truth become distinctly but things (real entities) and my thoughts (To be truth).
We are not, therefore, idealistic. The ideas are thought and things have their truth.
My thought is true if it matches the truth of things.
