Having customarily begun with a discussion of the views of his predecessors - the Prescoratics Parmenides, Melissus, Anazimander, Empedocles, and Anazagoras, as well as Plato - in Chapter 5 Artistotle concludes that they all share the view that the principles must be contraries (188a19).enBecomingMaterial causalityInherenceEpistemological approachesLinguistic analysisAncient GreekJournal Article725352020-10-14https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ie/
