Beskrivning

Aristotle sets the horizons of our inquiry: What is it when we say we know something? And is the object of knowledge a universal or particular [tode ti] object? Aristotle''s critique of Plato''s theory of form/Forms in light of his notion of actuality has generated a variety of topics that frame our inquiry: "Understanding Eidos as Form in the Works of Aristotle as Plato''s Critical Student"; "Aristotle on Plato''s Forms as Causes"; "Notes on the Relationship between Plato''s Parmenides and Aristotle''s Metaphysics Alpha"; "''Separate'' and ''Inactive''? Aristotle''s Most Challenging Critique of Plato''s ''Forms''"; "Too Much Unity in a City Is Destructive of the City: Aristotle against Plato''s Unification Project of the Polis"; "Aristotle on the Soul as Actuality"; "Delphic Piety in the De Anima of Alexander of Aphrodisias"; "Aristotle and Plotinus: Act and Potency and the Two Acts"; and "Al-Fārābīon Habit and Imagination." Here, the Peripatetic readings of form and actuality are parsed from the precipice of historical, analytic, and continental approaches to the mind/language/object problem, with advocacy of the importance of Aristotle''s contribution to this inquiry for the present age.
