ResumoThere is a fundamental problem in Aristotle's metaphysics which has received a good deal of attention ever since Eduard Zeller emphasized it in his book on Aristotle in the nineteenth century. The difficulty has often been expressed as an inconsistency between three propositions to each of which Aristotle is committed: (1) No universal is substance. (2) Knowledge is of what is most real. (3) Knowledge is of universals.
