of anything is that are universally predicated of them.
Book IV Chapter 1
THERE is a science which investigates being as being and the attributes which belong to this in virtue of its own nature. Now this is not the same as any of the so-called special sciences; for none of these others treats universally of being as being. They cut off a part of being Jerome Sinclair Jersey and investigate the attribute of this part; this is what the mathematical sciences for instance do. Now since we are seeking the first principles and the highest causes, clearly there must be some thing to which these belong in virtue of its own nature. If then those who sought the elements of existing things were seeking these same principles, it is necessary that the elements must be elements of being not by accident but just because it is being. Therefore it is of being as being that we also must grasp the first causes.
Book IV Chapter 2
There are many senses in which a thing may be said to Nike Kyrie 3 ‘be’, but all that Angel Di Maria Jersey ‘is’ is related to one central point, one definite kind of thing, and is Kevin Volland Jersey not said to Adidas Stan Smith ‘be’ by a mere ambiguity. Everything which is healthy is related to Juan Jesus Jersey health, one thing in the sense that it preserves health, another in the sense that it produces it, another in the sense that it is a symptom of health, another because it is capable of it. And that which is medical is relative to the medical art, one thing being called medical because it possesses it, another because it is naturally adapted to it, another because it is a function of the medical art. And we shall find other words used similarly to these. So, too, there are many senses in which a thing is said to be, but all refer to one starting-point; some things are said to be because they are substances, others because they are affections of substance, others because they are a process towards substance, Oleksandr Zinchenko Jersey or destructions or privations or qualities of substance, or productive or generative of substance, or of things which are relative to substance, or negations of one of these thing of substance itself. It is for this reason that we say even of non-being that it is nonbeing. As, then, there is one science which deals with all healthy things, the same applies in the other cases also. For not only in the case of things which have Belgium Dame Fodboldtrøjer one common notion does the investigation belong to one science, but also in the case of things which are related to one common nature; for even these Boston Bruins Lasten Pelipaidat in a sense have one common notion. It is clear then that it is the work of one science also to study the things that are, qua being.-But everywhere science deals chiefly with that which is primary, and on which Mamadou Sakho Jersey the other things depend, and in virtue of which they get their names. If, then, this is substance, it will be of substances that Joe Allen Jersey the philosopher must grasp the principles and the causes.
Now for each one class of things, Mats Hummels Jersey as there is one perception, so there is one science, as for instance grammar, being one science, investigates all articulate sounds. Hence to investigate all the species of being qua being is the wlinks:
