1 I, 4 | anything part signifies its essence, while part does not, let 2 I, 4 | part which indicates the essence a "definition", while of 3 I, 5 | phrase signifying a thing’s essence. It is rendered in the form 4 I, 5 | which does not indicate the essence of a thing, but yet belongs 5 I, 5 | predicated in the category of essence of a number of things exhibiting 6 I, 5 | predicates in the category of essence all such things as it would 7 I, 8 | for if it signifies the essence, it is the definition; if 8 I, 8 | but does not signify the essence. If, on the other hand, 9 I, 9 | These are ten in number: Essence, Quantity, Quality, Relation, 10 I, 9 | signify either something’s essence or its quality or quantity 11 I, 9 | who signifies something’s essence signifies sometimes a substance, 12 I, 9 | an animal", he states its essence and signifies a substance; 13 I, 9 | a colour", he states its essence and signifies a quality. 14 I, 9 | he will be describing its essence and signifying a quantity. 15 I, 9 | asserted of it, signifies an essence: if, on the other hand, 16 I, 9 | it does not signify an essence, but a quantity or a quality 17 I, 14| beginning with the category of essence. In the margin, too, one 18 I, 18| expression that is proper to the essence of each particular thing 19 I, 18| definitely in the category of essence is likely to be the genus. 20 IV, 1 | predicated not in the category of essence, but as an accident, as " 21 IV, 1 | not seem to indicate the essence, but rather a state of doing 22 IV, 1 | for it indicates not the essence of snow, but a certain quality 23 IV, 1 | predicated in the category of "essence".~Especially you should 24 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence: for all the higher genera 25 IV, 2 | species in the category of essence. If, then, there be anywhere 26 IV, 2 | species in the category of essence. For if one of them be predicated 27 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence, all of them, both higher 28 IV, 2 | of it in the category of essence: so that what has been rendered 29 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence. The premiss that when one 30 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence, all the rest, if predicated 31 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence, should be secured by induction. 32 IV, 2 | species in the category of essence: e.g. if any one has rendered " 33 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence of the very things of which 34 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence of those objects of which 35 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence. If, then, you are overthrowing 36 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence of those things of which 37 IV, 2 | predicated in the category of essence: for if so, the result will 38 IV, 2 | object in the category of essence, so that the same object 39 IV, 2 | differentia never signifies its essence, but rather some quality, 40 IV, 6 | predicates in the category of essence, and where no distinction 41 IV, 6 | anger in the category of essence: for the angry man is both 42 IV, 6 | predicated in the category of essence of those things of which 43 IV, 6 | predicated in the category of essence of other species as well: 44 IV, 6 | species in the category of essence, you should distinguish 45 IV, 6 | b) that in rendering the essence of a thing it is more fitting 46 V, 2 | expression which shows the essence, so too in the case of properties 47 V, 3 | thing ought not to show its essence. Thus (e.g.) a man who has 48 V, 3 | man so as to signify his essence, and so the property of 49 V, 3 | however, signifying its essence: for then the property will 50 V, 3 | without, however, showing its essence, and so the property of 51 V, 3 | placed the subject within its essence. For of properties, as also 52 V, 3 | living creature" within its essence, and so the property of 53 V, 3 | first places within its essence the subject whose property 54 V, 3 | placing the subject within its essence, and so the property of " 55 V, 4 | constituent part of its essence: and an attribute of that 56 V, 4 | partaken of, or as showing the essence, though the subject is predicated 57 V, 4 | partaken of nor as showing the essence, though the subject is predicated 58 V, 5 | itself always shows its own essence, and what shows the essence 59 V, 5 | essence, and what shows the essence is not a property but a 60 VI, 1 | the principal mark of the essence of what is defined): or ( 61 VI, 1 | that is, to express its essence. (5) It remains, apart from 62 VI, 3 | peculiar and makes clear the essence of the term. Thus, in the 63 VI, 3 | peculiar and makes clear his essence. Speaking generally, everything 64 VI, 3 | yet does not declare the essence, if the word "number" be 65 VI, 4 | mentioned and defined its essence or no, should be examined 66 VI, 4 | of each real object the essence is single: if, then, there 67 VI, 4 | definitions of the same thing, the essence of the object will be the 68 VI, 5 | is always found where the essence of the object does not stand 69 VI, 5 | he fails to express its essence: for the essence of a thing 70 VI, 5 | express its essence: for the essence of a thing must in each 71 VI, 6 | a state" indicates the essence of virtue, whereas "good" 72 VI, 6 | good" indicates not the essence but a quality: and to indicate 73 VI, 6 | differentia of a thing’s essence: for the general view is 74 VI, 6 | differentiate between one essence and another. Hence, too, 75 VI, 6 | intensified, subverts the essence of the thing, while the 76 VI, 6 | intensified, destroy its essence. If, then, a man has rendered 77 VI, 8 | everything relative the essence is relative to something 78 VI, 8 | whatever he fails to state the essence of the term. One should 79 VI, 9 | proper rendering of its essence must state both of what 80 VI, 12| the less wrong: for the essence contains par excellence 81 VI, 13| thing intelligible. For the essence of any compound thing is 82 VII, 3 | a thing’s definition and essence is quite possible. For if 83 VII, 3 | expression signifying the essence of the thing and the predicates 84 VII, 3 | thing in the category of essence; and genera and differentiae 85 VII, 3 | thing in the category of essence.~That a definition may thus 86 VII, 3 | decomposition of the thing’s essence, then to be destroyed is 87 VII, 3 | destroyed is to have its essence decomposed, and "destructively" 88 VII, 3 | way as to decompose its essence"; if again "destructive" 89 VII, 3 | to decompose something's essence", then also "destruction" 90 VII, 3 | the decomposition of its essence". Likewise also with the 91 VII, 5 | predicated in the category of essence. Yet without these premisses 92 VII, 5 | thing in the category of essence, there is no telling whether 93 VII, 5 | expression indicating the essence of a thing. The point is 94 VII, 5 | the formula indicates the essence of the thing; and this has
