Pomponazzi on Identity and Individuation Han Thomas Adriaenssen Abstract. Aristotle Defines Growing As a Process in Which An
Final version forthcoming in Journal of the History of Philosophy Pomponazzi on Identity and Individuation Han Thomas Adriaenssen Abstract. Aristotle defines growing as a process in which an individual living being persists as it accumulates new matter. This definition raises the question of what enables an individual to persist as its material composition continuously changes over time. This paper provides a systematic account of Pietro Pomponazzi’s answer to this question. In his De nutritione et augmentatione, Pomponazzi argues that individuals persist in virtue of their forms. Forms are individuated in part by their material, causal, and temporal origins, which commits Pomponazzi to the view that individuals necessarily have the material, causal, and temporal origins they do. I provide an account of why Pomponazzi was willing to this view. While his opponents remain unnamed, I argue that his arguments for this view are best read as addressing, among others, Paul of Venice and Gregory of Rimini. In On Generation and Corruption, Aristotle describes growing as a process in which “any and every part of the growing magnitude is made bigger . by the accession of something, and thirdly in such a way that the growing thing is preserved and persists” (321a18–22).1 For instance, when an animal grows as the result of the intake of food, all of its limbs grow larger as the result of the intake of new matter, in such a way that the same individual animal persists throughout the process. 1 All Aristotle translations are taken from the Jonathan Barnes edition of the Complete Works. 1 Final version forthcoming in Journal of the History of Philosophy Simple though it may perhaps appear, this definition confronted Aristotle’s later followers and commentators with a problem. -
These Disks Contain My Version of Paul Spade's Expository Text and His Translated Texts
These disks contain my version of Paul Spade's expository text and his translated texts. They were converted from WordStar disk format to WordPerfect 5.1 disk format, and then I used a bunch of macros and some hands-on work to change most of the FancyFont formatting codes into WordPerfect codes. Many transferred nicely. Some of them are still in the text (anything beginning with a backslash is a FancyFont code). Some I just erased without knowing what they were for. All of the files were cleaned up with one macro, and some of them have been further doctored with additional macros I wrote later and additional hand editing. This explains why some are quite neat, and others somewhat cluttered. In some cases I changed Spade's formatting to make the printout look better (to me); often this is because I lost some of his original formatting. I have occasionally corrected obvious typos, and in at least one case I changed an `although' to a `but' so that the line would fit on the same page. With these exceptions, I haven't intentionally changed any of the text. All of the charts made by graphics are missing entirely (though in a few cases I perserved fragments so you can sort of tell what it was like). Some of the translations had numbers down the side of the page to indicate location in the original text; these are all lost. Translation 1.5 (Aristotle) was not on the disk I got, so it is listed in the table of contents, but you won't find it. -

Walter Burley on the Kinds of Simple Supposition1
Walter Burley on The Kinds of Simple Supposition 1 PAUL VINCENT SPADE 1. Background By the early-fourteenth century at the latest, the mediaeval theory of supposition could be divided in most authors into two main branches, which in recent literature have come to be called the theory of “suppo- sition proper” and the theory of “modes of personal supposition,” respec- tively.2 While the relation between these two branches remains obscure, we can say to a rst approximation that the theory of supposition proper was atheory of “reference,” designed to answer the question what entity or enti- ties a term refers to or “supposits” for in a given occurrence in a given proposition, whereas the theory of modes of personal supposition, whatever its ultimate purpose, was the part of the theory that included the much- discussed accounts of “descent to singulars” and “ascent from singulars.”3 Walter Burley and his somewhat younger contemporary, William of Ockham, for the most part agreed about the modes of personal supposition, 4 1 I am grateful to Rega Wood and Elizabeth Karger for their comments and sugges- tions on an earlier draft of this paper. 2 See Paul Vincent Spade, The Semantics of Terms , in: Norman Kretzmann et al. (ed.), The Cambridge History of Later Medieval Philosophy , New York 1982, Ch. 9 (188-96). This ter- minology was rst used by T.K. Scott in the “Introduction” to his translation of John Buridan’s Sophismata, and is not mediaeval. See T.K. Scott (trans.), John Buridan: Sophisms on Meaning and Truth , New York 1966, 29-42. -

Walter Burley, the Longer Treatise on the Purity of the Art of Logic Tract 1
1 Walter Burley, The Longer Treatise On the Purity of the Art of Logic 5 Tract 1: “On the Properties of Terms” Translated by Paul Vincent Spade Indiana University 10 (1) Assuming the significates of non-complex terms, in this treatise I intend to investigate certain properties of terms, [properties] that are applica- ble to them only insofar as they are parts of propositions. (2) Now I divide this tract into three parts. The first is about the sup- position of terms, the second about appellation, and the third about copula- 15 tion. Supposition belongs to the subject, appellation to the predicate. Copula- tion belongs to the verb that couples the predicate with the subject. For these three are the integral parts of the categorical proposition, to which we turn before [treating] hypotheticals.1 Hence in this tract I want to talk about the suppositions of terms in categoricals. 20 [Part One: On Supposition] (3) The first part will contain six chapters. The first chapter is about the division of supposition in general. The second chapter is about material supposition. The third chapter is about simple supposition. The fourth chapter is about the division of personal supposition in general. The fifth chapter is 25 about various difficulties that arise concerning personal supposition. The sixth chapter is about improper supposition. 1 Hypothetical propositions are propositions composed of two or more categoricals. A categorical proposition is, in modern logical terminology, either an atomic proposition or else the negation of an atomic proposition. Hence the notion of a hypothetical proposition is not exactly the same as the modern notion of a “molecular” proposition, since the negations of atomic propositions are molecular but not hypothetical. -

Archbishop Fitz Ralph of Armagh. a Precursor of the Reformation
414 ART. II.-ARCHBISHOP FITZ RALPH OF ARMAGH. A PRECURSOR OF THE REFORMATION. UST as the drops come before the shower, so we find that J there were many isolated attempts at Reformation long before the great movement of the sixteenth century. Even before Wickliffe, both in England and Ireland, there were some protestants against the errors and enormities £a voured by the Roman See in the name of religion. Amongst these, one of the most remarkable, yet least known at the present day, is Richard Fitz Ralph, Archbishop of Armagh. By his piety and reforming zeal the name Armachanus was as well known in his time, throughout the whole Christian world, as it was two •centuries later by the learning of Archbishop U ssher. Of the six great primates of Armagh-Patrick, Apostle of Ireland, Malachy, the friend of Bernard, Fitz Ralph, U ssher, Boulter, Beresford-he is by no means the least worthy of notice. With Malachy he may well be compared: both were reformers, but in different directions. He will be seen to have well earned the character given of him by John Foxe:-" He was a man worthy, for his Christian zeal, of immortal commendation." Fitz Ralph lived in the reign of King Edward III. This reign, extending over exactly half a century (1327-1377), was one of the most brilliant epochs of our national history. The importance of the political affairs of the time has no doubt obscured the view of ecclesiastical events and leaders, and to a :great extent caused the suppression of many important details. -
Walter Burley
Walter Burley From the Beginning of His Treatise on the Kinds of Supposition (De suppositionibus) 5 Translated from Stephen F. Brown, “Walter Burleigh’s Treatise De suppo- sitionibus and Its Influence on William of Ockham,” Franciscan Studies 32 (1972), 1 10 pp. 15–64 Translated by Paul Vincent Spade, Department of Philosophy, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, 47405 <On the Kinds of Supposition according to Walter Bu rley>2 15 [Introduction] (1) (p. 31) (1.1) “Some things that are said are said with complexity, and others are said without complexity.”3 Those that are said without com- plexity are, for example, ‘man’, ‘animal’. Those that are said with complex- ity are, for example, ‘A man runs’, ‘An animal runs’.4 20 (2) It is plain from this that the incomplex is part of the complex. And because a knowledge of the part is very helpful for knowing the whole, therefore in this treatise we must talk about incomplex [expressions] and the properties of incomplex [expressions] — that is, about supposition and ap- pellation. For the knowledge of these is very helpful for knowing the 25 proposition, and consequently for knowing the syllogism. 1I have here translated the first part of Burley’s text (pp. 31–43), on the supposition of “absolute” terms, but not the remainder (pp. 43–64), on the supposition of “respective” or “relative” terms and other material. (See paragraph (18) below.) Page breaks have been inserted in parentheses. Parenthetical numerals with decimal points are Brown’s paragraph numbers. My own paragraph numbering is in boldface. 2Here and throughout this translation, pointed brackets enclose Brown’s editorial additions. -
The Envious Instant: Material Conditions of Truth in Thomas Bradwardine
Sean Hannan Villanova PMR October 2016 The Envious Instant: Material Conditions of Truth in Thomas Bradwardine Long before his all-too-brief tenure as Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Bradwardine spent his formative years untying logical knots at Oxford. The knottiest of those knots were to be found in semantic paradoxes like that of the well-known liar who says, “I am lying to you right now.” In order to unweave these tangled threads, Bradwardine made use of an unloved instrument from the medieval logicians’ toolkit: the ut nunc consequence.1 Often translated as ‘matter of fact’ consequence, this logical maneuver involved the supposition of a contingent premise which may not hold ‘absolutely’ (simpliciter) or in every case. Bradwardine embraced the ut nunc consequence as central to his understanding of how the truth of propositions may be judged in relation to their contingent premises. By relating insolubles like the Liar’s Paradox back to contingent, material states of affairs, he was able to push past the limits of paradox and ground truth anew in an apprehension of the facts of the matter—at least, as of now (ut nunc). While Bradwardine’s idiosyncratic reliance upon the ut nunc has already been established, there remains work to be done on how this dependence of logic on temporality relates to the theological account of time we meet in his De Causa Dei contra Pelagianos. One central claim there is that human matters can perhaps be understood in terms of temporal instants, whereas God must not be so measured, dwelling as He does in the simultaneity of an “instantaneous presentiality,” which Bradwardine dubs the “simultas of the temporal instant.”2 While simultas here presumably means sheer simultaneitas, it is tempting (for this reader, at 1 My understanding of the use of the ut nunc consequence in medieval logic is indebted to the work of Stephen Read, Edith Wilks Dolnikowski, Eleonore Stump, and Catarina Dutilh Novaes. -

It sets forth the general movements and rhythms involved in the succession of philosophic systems, the characteristic features of which are first of all outlined. The analytic or monographic method is thus combined here with the synthetic or comparative method, and we shall endeavour to justify the use of both.
