In Aristotle's Metaphysics Z, chapters 10 and 11, there is an apparent inconsistency regarding which parts of a given thing must be mentioned in its definition. Whereas some passages suggest that only the formal parts should be included, a passage that alludes to Socrates the Young (1036b 21-31) not only seems to suggest that the material parts must be mentioned, but also indicates that i…
In the last chapter of Book VII (Z) of the Metaphysics, Aristotle introduces a new beginning in the investigation of substances: the analysis of hylomorphic substances on the basis of a triadic model of causal explanation imported from Posterior Analytics II 8-10. In the Posterior Analytics, however, the concrete application of the model happens only in the case of processes, such as ecli…
Aristotle's philosophy of science is connected to a conceptual ontological framework that includes the doctrine of metaphysical categories and the priority of substance over concomitant beings.

Our aim is to analyse two dimensions of the model of demonstrative science that Aristotle develops in the Posterior Analytics.

In one of them, we intend to set out the connection between the syllogistic structure of Aristotle's model and some of his views on causation. In the other, we shall study…
The canonical model of argumentation in Aristotelian syllogistic corresponds to a formal scheme with two premises articulating only three terms. Why does Aristotle insist in such a triadic formal scheme? In the research here proposed, I will attempt to indicate one of the possible reasons. In Posterior Analytics II 16-17, Aristotle seems to adopt a thesis according to which the apprehensi…
