Aristotle's Logic

In lecture two, we explore Aristotle’s groundbreaking work in logic, focusing on the Organon, which formalized human reasoning and shaped logical thought for over two millennia. We examine the laws of thought, syllogistic reasoning, and the distinction between validity and soundness. Dr. Orr concludes by introducing his four causes and his theory of change as the movement from potentiality to actuality, linking logic to natural philosophy and metaphysics.
