Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Metaphysics of Aristotle is a classic work of philosophy written by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. The book is a comprehensive study of metaphysics, which is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature of reality and existence. Aristotle's work is divided into fourteen books, each of which explores a different aspect of metaphysics. The first book lays out the basic principles of metaphysics, including the concepts of substance, essence, and causation. The following books delve deeper into these concepts, exploring topics such as the nature of change, the relationship between matter and form, and the existence of God. Throughout the book, Aristotle argues that everything in the world can be explained through the principles of causation and substance. He also argues that there is a hierarchy of being, with the most perfect and complete beings at the top, including God. The Metaphysics of Aristotle is a complex and challenging work of philosophy, but it remains a seminal text in the field. It has been studied and debated by scholars for centuries, and its ideas continue to influence philosophical thinking today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
