Aristotle's De Interpretatione: Contradiction and Dialectic (Oxford Aristotle Studies Series)($74.39Value)

Description

De Interpretatione is among Aristotle's most influential and widely read writings; C. W. A. Whitaker presents the first systematic study of this work, and offers a radical new view of its aims, its structure, and its place in Arisotle's system. He shows that De Interpretatione is not a disjointed essay on ill- connected subjects, as traditionally thought, but a highly organized and systematic treatise on logic, argument, and dialectic. "[Whitaker's] commentary of the text is excellent and conservative."-- The Review of Metaphysics C. W. A. Whitaker was trained in classics and philosophy at the Universities of Cambridge and Chicago; he is now Research Fellow at Peterhouse, Cambridge.
