Abstract

Islamic commentators of Aristotle’s Posterior Analytics, particularly Avicenna and Averroes point to unify the last sentence of I.6 and the first of I.7, and thereby shed a new light of Aristotle’s kind-crossing prohibition rule. Moreover, this paper will argue that despite Aristotle tried to strictly demarcate the boundaries of the sciences; in fact, he himself could not achieve it in the explanation of the healing of circular wounds. This case made Avicenna to widen the boundaries of the canons of demonstration.
