Aristotle’s Categories

[valentineanastassiou]

Thank you Sir for such an excellent analysis of the Categories, as presented by Aristotle. With your presentation you manage to make a difficult subject fun, enjoyable and understandable.

Very good video, I just imagine someone hiking and coming across a guy talking to a camera about philosophy in the middle of nowhere haha

Best lecture on this topic I’ve been searching for something like this. Wish somebody would’ve told me this in the third grade.

That’s so funny! I’m in Boerne, TX watching this video for my online class and learned that you filmed this near by. Thanks for sharing.

When i discovered your channel, you became my second philosophy teacher this year since we cannot cover it all through online school (i am in high school btw). Shared your videos to my class, we were all prepared to talk about Aristotle this week. Big thanks! Best videos on this topic! I will surely dive into your other videos, I hope that more people will have luck to discover and watch your amazing videos!

Another great video. You have a talent for simplifying things. Watched many videos on this topic, some hours long but yours is the best by far. I'm on a mission to go through all your philosophy videos. Thank you for sharing this knowledge with us.

Very helpful breakdown of the categories! Thank you.

Great lecture...maybe you can discuss Paulo Freire as well

"To Have" and "Having"
You "have (probably) many shirts, " and for this discussion, you "are having your red shirt."
"Habit" - "Having" (using) the possessions habitually at the right time.

Nice video sir, I’m reading the article and watching your explication simultaneously

[summyb]

In the ex of " I am wearing a hat for shade", Is this correct?
SUBJECT: I
ACTION: Wearing
POSSESSION: Hat
SHADE: PASSIVITY

If we were to continue and say the hat is providing shade for cooling... would for cooling be a quality because it appeals to the senses?

Can accidents turn into substences? For example in this statment: Blue is a specter of light.Blue seems to take the place of subtance.
Anyway i am very gratful to you for this kind of contents.

[ronruddick]

Substance isn't the least useless predicate dependent upon date. Unless nothingness has properties and predicates... I guess the skies black... A cloudy night in the forest from the perspective of the observer.

[mikenowacki]

can the steepness of the hill itself be considered a subject

Very good video, I finally understand some of the concepts that I've been trying to understand with some videos.
The thing is, you said green is a predicate, but green can also be a subject isn't it? I think every word can potentially be a subject, isn't it?
Also, some of the videos are explaining, in a subject and predicate of a subject which I entirely didn't understand, hope you can shed some light, thank you!
