La premiere partie de cet article propose un survol de la theorie des nombres transfinis de Georg Cantor, l'un des plus eminents mathematiciens de la fin du XIXe, debut du XXe siecle, en mettant l'accent surtout sur sa revendication que les nombres transfinis possedent un infini objectif, reel, et pas seulement potentiel. La deuxieme partie place Cantor face a Aristote afin de verifier si sa theorie resiste aux arguments de ce dernier. L'article s'acheve sur des reflexions et observations sur la force des arguments d'Aristote a la lumiere des decouvertes de Cantor.
