ARISTOTLE AND THE EARLIER PERIPATETICS vol.I by Eduard Zeller, B.F.C.Costelloe 1897

MACEDONIA is GREECE and will always be GREECE- (if they are desperate to steal a name, Monkeydonkeys suits them just fine) ΚΑΤΩ ΤΟ ΠΡΟΔΟΤΙΚΟ "ΣΥΝΤΑΓΜΑΤΙΚΟ ΤΟΞΟ"!!! Strabo – “Geography” “There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis. Then, a little further on, Strabo mentions Cypsela and the Hebrus River, and also describes a sort of parallelogram in which the whole of Macedonia lies.” (Strab. 7.fragments.9) ΚΚΕ, ΚΝΕ, ΟΝΝΕΔ, ΑΓΟΡΑ,ΕΚΚΛΗΣΙΑ,ΝΕΑ,ΦΩΝΗ,ΦΕΚ,ΝΟΜΟΣ,LIFO,MACEDONIA, ALEXANDER, GREECE,IKEA

Strabo – “Geography”
“There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis.

If we take demonstration as<br />

LOGIC 246<br />

•<br />

a whole, and consider the<br />

building up of a scientific system, it is an axiom that<br />

the knowledge of the universal must precede that of<br />

the particular. 1 The same considerations lead up from<br />

another point of view to a principle which is deeplyrooted<br />

in Aristotle's whole way of thinking : that nothing<br />

can be demonstrated except from its own peculiar<br />

principles, and that it is inadmissible to borrow proofs<br />

from without.<br />

Demonstration, he thinks, should start<br />

from the essential characteristics of the object in<br />

question, and any properties which belong to another<br />

genus can only accidentally attach to it, seeing that<br />

they form no part of its concept. 2<br />

All demonstration,<br />

consequently, hinges on the concept of the thing. Its<br />

problem consists in determining, not only the properties<br />

which attach to any object <strong>by</strong> virtue of the conception<br />

of it, but also the media <strong>by</strong> which they are attached to<br />

it. Its function is to deduce the particular from the<br />

universal, phenomena from their causes.<br />

Is this process of ' mediation ' unending, or has it<br />

a necessary limit ?<br />

from three points of view.<br />

Aristotle takes the latter alternative,<br />
