Hylomorphism is the theory that objects are composites of form and matter. Recently it has been argued that form is structure, or the arrangement of an object's parts. This paper shows that the principle of form cannot be ontologically exhausted by structure. That is, I deny form should be understood just as the arrangement of an object's parts. I do so by showing that structure cannot play the role form is supposed to in a certain domain of objects, specifically, in mereological simples. Thus, I show that Hylomorphism does not reduce to Structuralism. I also draw out some important consequences from my argument for Hylomorphism in general.

形式即结构：没那么简单

Hylomorphism 是一种理论，即物体是形式和物质的复合物。最近有人认为，形式就是结构，或者是物体各部分的排列。本文表明，形式原则不能被结构在本体论上穷尽。也就是说，我否认形式应该被理解为对象各部分的排列。我这样做是通过表明结构不能发挥形式在对象的某个领域中应该扮演的角色，特别是在分体简单中。因此，我表明 Hylomorphism 不会归结为结构主义。我还从我对 Hylomorphism 的一般论证中得出了一些重要的结论。
