DIE RÖMISCHE SATIRE

"The book inquires into Aristotle's claim that of the four kinds of change that exist, locomotion is the most fundamental and important kind. The author begins by showing that the arguments for the thesis of locomotion's priority pla a crucial role in the argument of Physics VIII and for an understanding of Aristotle's philosophy of nature in general. The main focus of the book lies on the thorough and careful reconstruction, analysis and discussion of the arguments Aristotle presents in Physics VIII."--
