1. UMA NOTA SOBRE A TRANSPOSIÇÃO DE TERMOS QUÍMICOS PARA A LÍNGUA PORTUGUESA
This note has the purpose of calling the attention of the chemist to some aspects of the process of translating chemical terms onto the Portuguese language. A quick inspection on the chemistry literature in Portuguese shows a certain number of inadequate or dubious translations of terms originally coined in other languages. Firstly, the possible origins of t

2. FOCAL DEPENDENCE, LOGICAL PRIORITY AND THE UNITY OF ARISTOTLE’S METAPHYSICS
RESUMO Um problema de longa data na erudição aristotélica diz respeito à questão de como reconciliar a dupla descrição de Aristóteles da metafísica como ontologia (a ciência universal do ser enquanto ser) e teologia (a ciência da substância imutável e separada). Uma tentativa importante de responder a esta questão (iniciada primeiro por G. Patz

3. BOA DELIBERAÇÃO (EUBOULÍA) E O PROBLEMA DA MORALIDADE DOS MEIOS EM ARISTÓTELES
RESUMO O escopo da pesquisa é a análise de 1142b 17-28 da “Ética Nicomaqueia”, trecho em que Aristóteles disserta sobre a correção (orthotes), tendo em vista que a boa deliberação (euboulía) é uma espécie de correção. A passagem não é clara e sugere que: i) na boa deliberação, a moralidade restringe-se aos fins, cabendo aos meios apenas

4. O estabelecimento do paradigma do membro articulado no De motu animalium de Aristóteles
Resumo: No De motu animalium, Aristóteles recorre ao método analógico na pesquisa que faz acerca da causa comum do movimento, estabelecendo o paradigma do membro articulado, modelo que ele operacionaliza tendo em vista tornar inteligível o caráter dinâmico do movimento dos animais. Contudo, o membro articulado não se apresenta como modelo de uma manei

5. CAN THERE BE A SCIENCE OF PSYCHOLOGY? ARISTOTLE’S DE ANIMA AND THE STRUCTURE AND CONSTRUCTION OF SCIENCE
Abstract This article considers whether and how there can be for Aristotle a genuine science of ‘pure’ psychology, of the soul as such, which amounts to considering whether Aristotle’s model of science in the Posterior Analytics is applicable to the de Anima.

6. ARISTOTLE ON PREDICATION AND DEMONSTRATION
Abstract I argue against the standard interpretation of Aristotle’s account of ‘natural predication’ in Posterior Analytics 1.19 and 1.22 according to which only substances can serve as subjects in such predications. I argue that this interpretation cannot accommodate a number of demonstrations Aristotle sanctions. I propose a new interpretation that c

7. ARISTOTLE’S CONTRAST BETWEEN EPISTEME AND DOXA IN ITS CONTEXT (POSTERIOR ANALYTICS I.33)
Abstract Aristotle contrasts episteme and doxa through the key notions of universal and necessary. These notions have played a central role in Aristotle’s characterization of scientific knowledge in the previous chapters of APo. They are not spelled out in APo I.33, but work as a sort of reminder that packs an adequate characterization of scientific knowle

9. ARISTOTLE’S ARGUMENT FROM UNIVERSAL MATHEMATICS AGAINST THE EXISTENCE OF PLATONIC FORMS
Abstract In Metaphysics M.2, 1077a9-14, Aristotle appears to argue against the existence of Platonic Forms on the basis of there being certain universal mathematical proofs which are about things that are ‘beyond’ the ordinary objects of mathematics and that cannot be identified with any of these. It is a very effective argument against Platonism, becaus

10. DISENTANGLING DEFINING AND DEMONSTRATING: NOTES ON AN. POST. II 3-7
Abstract: In APo II 3-7 Aristotle discusses a series of difficulties concerning definition, deduction, and demonstration. In this paper I focus on two interrelated but distinct questions: firstly, what are exactly the difficulties emerging from or alluded to in the discussion in II 3-7; secondly, whether and in what sense the discussion in II 3-7 can be cons

11. The aporia of ἢ ἐϰ παντὸς in Posterior Analytics II.19
Abstract This article sketches, and works to motivate, a controversial approach to Posterior Analytics II.19. But its primary goal is to recommend a novel solution to one particular interpretive aporia that’s especially vexed recent scholars working on Post. An. II.19. The aporia concerns how to understand the enigmatic ē ek pantos... (≈ “or from all.

12. MATERIAL CAUSE AND SYLLOGISTIC NECESSITY IN POSTERIOR ANALYTICS II 11
Abstract The paper examines Posterior Analytics II 11, 94a20-36 and makes three points. (1) The confusing formula ‘given what things, is it necessary for this to be’ [τίνων ὄντων ἀνάγκη τοῦτ᾿ εἶναι] at a21-22 introduces material cause, not syllogistic necessity. (2) When biological material necessitation is the only causal
