Other Available Formats
Overview
Prior Analytics is a philosophical work by Aristotle that delves into the study of logic and reasoning. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which discusses the principles of logic, including the concepts of propositions, terms, and syllogisms. The second part of the book focuses on the application of these principles to scientific inquiry, specifically in the areas of biology, physics, and metaphysics. Aristotle's approach to logic in Prior Analytics is highly influential, and has had a lasting impact on the study of philosophy, science, and mathematics. This book is considered a cornerstone of Western philosophy and is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of logic and reasoning.WE must first state the subject of our inquiry and the faculty to which it belongs: its subject is demonstration and the faculty that carries it out demonstrative science. We must next define a premiss, a term, and a syllogism, and the nature of a perfect and of an imperfect syllogism; and after that, the inclusion or noninclusion of one term in another as in a whole, and what we mean by predicating one term of all, or none, of another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
