Description

Aristotles Topics is a handbook for dialectic, which can be understood as a philosophical debate between a questioner and a respondent. In book 2, Aristotle mainly develops strategies for making deductions about accidents, which are properties that might or might not belong to a subject (for instance, Socrates has five fingers, but might have had six), and about properties that simply belong to a subject without further specification. In the present commentary, here translated into English for the first time, Alexander develops a careful study of Aristotles text. He preserves objections and replies from other philosophers whose work is now lost, such as the Stoics. He also offers an invaluable picture of the tradition of Aristotelian logic down to his time, including innovative attempts to unify Aristotles guidance for dialectic with his general theory of deductive argument (the syllogism), found in the Analytics. The work will be of interest not only for ancient logic, rhetoric, and debate, but also for its continuing influence on argument in the middle ages and later. About the Author Laura M. Castelli is Fellow at the Munich School of Ancient Philosophy (MUSAPh) at Ludwig Maximilian University, Germany.
