Description
Neo-Aristotelian Metaphysics by Phil Corkum offers a systematic exploration of how Aristotelian philosophy remains relevant to contemporary metaphysical debates. This work examines core Aristotelian concepts including substance, essence, form, and causation, demonstrating their application to modern philosophical problems.
The book investigates how neo-Aristotelian thinkers challenge prevailing metaphysical assumptions and provide alternative frameworks for understanding reality. Corkum discusses the revival of hylomorphism, the nature of properties and universals, and the role of teleology in contemporary philosophy. The text bridges classical and modern philosophical traditions, showing how Aristotelian insights can illuminate current discussions in analytic metaphysics.
As part of the Elements in Metaphysics series, this concise yet comprehensive volume serves as both an introduction and a detailed examination of neo-Aristotelian metaphysics, making it essential for scholars and students interested in metaphysics, philosophy of science, and the history of philosophy.
