On the ontology of events: A neo-Aristotelian approach In my dissertation, I explore the ontological nature of events and processes from a mereological perspective. I argue that events are structured, four-dimensional entities composed of temporal parts organized through specific cross-temporal relations. In order to understand this, I propose a version of slot-mereology specifically tailored to events. This approach aims at solving long-standing philosophical problems about the identity, individuation, persistence and modal profile of occurrences. Besides, it offers new perspectives on wider debates within and beyond philosophy. My work aims to provide a novel and clear framework for understanding the metaphysics of events and their place in the broader philosophical landscape.
