1514Best.-Nr. 104082Venice: Gregorium de Gregorijs 1514. Rare 16th century printing of Aristotle's Posterior Analytics; bound together with Spanish Franciscan theologian Antonius Andreas's best known work Quaestiones super XII libros Metaphysicae Aristotelis. Quarto bound in contemporary parchment over handmade paper-covered boards woodcut initials text in two columns. In very good condition. A rare and desirable collection. The Posterior Analytics is a text from Aristotle's Organon that examines demonstration definition and scientific knowledge. In the work Aristotle distinguishes 'demonstration' as a syllogism productive of scientific knowledge and 'definition' as the statement of a thing's nature: the meaning of its name or of an equivalent nominal formula. In the Prior Analytics syllogistic logic is considered in its formal aspect; in the Posterior it is considered in respect of its matter. The "form" of a syllogism lies in the necessary connection between the premises and the conclusion. Aristotle concludes the book with the way the human mind comes to know the basic truths or first principles which are not innate because people may be ignorant of them for much of their lives. Of all types of thinking scientific knowing and intuition are considered as only universally true where the latter is the originative source of scientific knowledge.

1551Best.-Nr. 95873Venice: per Bartholomeo detto l'Imperador & Francesco suo genero 1551. Early Venetian edition of Bernardo Segni's translation of Aristotle's poems and rhetoric. Small octavo bound in full 19th century calf gilt titles and tooling to the spine morocco spine labels gilt ruled gilt turn-ins all edges gilt marbled endpapers. From the library of one of the most influential theologians of the 20th century Dr. Thomas C. Oden. Regarded as the founder of the paleo-orthodox movement Oden taught with a mission "to prepare the postmodern Christian community for its third millennium by returning again to the careful study and respectful following of the central tradition of classical Christianity." In very good condition. A unique association. Based on an analysis of Homer's epic of the Trojan war The Illiad Aristotle determined that poetry sought universal truths while history strove to explain the particular. From this Aristotle concluded poetry was superior to history. Aristotelian theorists of the Renaissance agreed on two basic principles: first that the poem had to have been written several centuries ago and second that the historical events narrated in the poem did not need to be exact but only to approximate reality. Therefore the author of an epic had more freedom of fantasy than an historian. per Bartholomeo detto l'Imperador & Francesco suo genero unknown books
