Aristotle's De Partibus Animalium I and De Generatione Animalium I. Translated with Notes by D.M. Balme.

Beschreibung

173 S. Good copy, clean text. --- In De Partibus Animalium I Aristotle sets out his philosophy of biology, discussing cause, necessity, soul, genus and species, definition by logical division, and general methodology. In De Generatione Animalium I he applies his hylomorphic philosophy to the problem of animal reproduction. The translation is close, and includes passages from De Generatione Animalium II which complete Aristotle's theory of reproduction. The notes interpret Aristotle's arguments and discuss his views on major issues such as natural teleology. --- CONTENTS: TRANSLATIONS - - De Partibus Animalium I - - De Generatione Animalium I - - De Generatione Animalium II (extracts from Chapters 1-3) - - NOTES - - De Partibus Animalium I - - De Generatione Animalium I - - De Generatione Animalium II - - SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHY - - GLOSSARY - - INDEX.
