| Research Abstract |
In the paper (Where Is Aristotle's Modal Logic Heading?), I make a methodological suggestion to extract an underlying relationship between Ar's modal logic in the Prior Analytics and his theory of demonstration in the Posterior Analytics. My objective is to reconstruct the framework of Ar's modal syllogism so that we can find a route from the Prior to the Posterior. In order to do that in a succinct way, I take the following strategy. (1) For an overview of Ar's logical system, I make the most of the table of valid syllogisms that Ross makes up in his Commentary. The table makes us reconsider which modal syllogisms are perfect or imperfect from the viewpoint of Ar's logic. (2) As a tentative method, I push aside the application of a straightforward essentialist interpretation to his logical system. I methodologically give importance to syntax rather than semantics. (3) I place emphasis on a contextual interpretation of how Aristotle rearranges the order of valid modal syllogisms.
