1. Philosophy / C. History of Philosophy / 3. Earlier European Philosophy / b. Early medieval philosophy

16137	Earlier views of Aristotle were dominated by 'Categories' [Frede,M]
	Full Idea: For centuries 'Categories' and 'De Interpretatione' (+ Porphyry's 'Isagoge') formed the core of the philosophical corpus still being seriously studied. It is hardly surprising that our received view of Aristotle was coloured substantially by 'Categories'.
	From: Michael Frede (Title, Unity, Authenticity of the 'Categories' [1983], I)
	A reaction: He adds that doubts remain about the authenticity of the second part, and the whole thing bears marks of having been edited.
