Le statut catégoriel des différences dans l' « Organon »
Revue Philosophique de la France Et de l'Etranger 183 (2):147 - 178 (1993)
Abstract
The question, What category does the differentia belong to? is a difficult problem in Aristotelian metaphysics. For example, is the differentia of a substance itself a substance, or e.g. a quality? The range of previous interpretations of Aristotle on this point are comprehensively surveyed. Based primarily on evidence in the Categories, this paper argues for an answer to this question.Author's Profile
