Infos

Suarez on Aristotelian Causality offers the first comprehensive account of Francisco Suarez's position with respect to the four Aristotelian causes in his Metaphysical Disputations. Suarez deals with these causes in the greater part of Metaphysical Disputations 12-27 approximately a third of his famous work on metaphysics. Nevertheless, no previous attempt at analysis of causality as a part of his overall metaphysical position has been offered.The material, formal, efficient and final cause as understood by Suarez each receives a chapter in this volume just as his general account of causality is considered. This should be relevant to anyone interested in the role and pertinence of Aristotelian causality for Suarez's metaphysics.Contributors (in order of appearance) are Jakob Leth Fink, Erik Akerlund, Kara Richardson, Stephan Schmid and Sydney Penner.
