Abstract

Do Ideas exist and can we prove it that they exist ? Aristotle addresses the issue in two influential texts, namely his lost treatise on platonic Ideas and the lengthy thrust against their supporters in books A and M of his Metaphysics. As no more than a few fragments of the first survive thanks to Alexander of Aphrodisias, the second being a summary of sorts, there has been much speculation about the exact number and nature of the arguments for and against Forms. Rationes ex machina offers a micrological interpretation of these most controversial pages of Ancient Metaphysics.
