Il Libro Iota (X) della Metafisica di Aristotele
ISBN 978-3-89665-356-7
englischDespite the large number of studies appearing nowadays on Aristotle's Metaphysics the most logical part of the work, Book Iota, has been injustly neglected by modern scholars. Yet it is an essential part of the Aristotelian science of Being qua Being, a part which presents us with the most systematic treatment of unity and of such related concepts as identity, similarity and contrariety. Readers will find here a new translation of Iota with a short commentary, together with contributions by various authors carefully analysing each chapter or tackling more general themes, e. g. the theory of the One or the notion of identity.
