Sumario:This essay traces the vestigial pulse of the aether in modern thought and its banishment from contemporary relativistic physics as the last refuge of the absolute. The analysis undertaken concludes the substitution of a basal ontological principle, a substantive principle of identity protected by absolute time and space raised to levels of aprioricity of the transcendental subject, by an operative principle of equivalence that sanctions all privileged reference, embracing a diaphanous four-dimensional space that has absorbed the temporal variable, purified of aether, in which Lorentz transformations acquire the rank of intrinsic geometric properties.
