The work takes the form of a series of aporiai or 'difficulties' which Aristotle presents as necessary points of engagement for those who wish to attain wisdom. The topics include causation, substance, constitution, properties, predicates, and generally the ontology of both the perishable and the imperishable world.Each contributor discusses one or two of these aporiai in sequence: the result is a discursive commentary on this seminal text of WestMetaphysicsEarly works to 1800CongressesMetaphysics110185Crubellier Michel1948-173534Laks André388744Symposium AristotelicumMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778324403321Aristotle's Metaphysics Beta3854351UNINA
