1 I, 4 | problem indicates either a genus or a peculiarity or an accident-for 2 I, 4 | as it does to a class (or genus), should be ranked together 3 I, 4 | ranked together with the genus. Since, however, of what 4 I, 4 | property or definition or genus or accident. Do not let 5 I, 4 | not?"or ""Animal" is the genus of man, is it not?" the 6 I, 4 | no?" [or "Is "animal" his genus or no?"] the result is a 7 I, 5 | definition", "property", "genus", and "accident". A "definition" 8 I, 5 | is asleep it is a man.~A "genus" is what is predicated in 9 I, 5 | Is one thing in the same genus as another or in a different 10 I, 5 | branch of inquiry as the genus: for having argued that " 11 I, 5 | argued that "animal" is the genus of man, and likewise also 12 I, 5 | that they are in the same genus; whereas if we show that 13 I, 5 | if we show that it is the genus of the one but not of the 14 I, 5 | things are not in the same genus.~An "accident" is (i) something 15 I, 5 | definition nor a property nor a genus yet belongs to the thing: ( 16 I, 5 | already what "definition" and "genus" and "property" are, whereas 17 I, 6 | criticism of a "property" and "genus" and "accident" will be 18 I, 6 | a property, or that the genus rendered in the definition 19 I, 6 | definition is not the true genus, or that any of the things 20 I, 7 | which fall under the same genus, such as a horse and a man. 21 I, 8 | its property or from its genus or from its accident. Another 22 I, 8 | terms, then it will be the genus or the differentia, inasmuch 23 I, 8 | the definition consists of genus and differentiae; whereas, 24 I, 8 | either its definition or its genus or a property.~ 25 I, 9 | Passivity. For the accident and genus and property and definition 26 I, 9 | asserted of itself, or its genus be asserted of it, signifies 27 I, 15| Thus (e.g.) "animal" is the genus of "raven", and so is "bird". 28 I, 16| these belong to the same genus; and also from one genus 29 I, 16| genus; and also from one genus to another, provided they 30 I, 17| which belong to the same genus, to see if any identical 31 I, 18| be at no loss into what genus we ought to put the object 32 I, 18| essence is likely to be the genus. Likewise, also, in the 33 I, 18| then, we render as the genus what is common to all the 34 I, 18| common to both as their genus.~The means, then, whereby 35 II, 1 | definition" and "property" and "genus" are bound to be convertible; 36 II, 1 | also, if drawn from the genus; for if "to be an animal 37 II, 2 | white, but colour is its genus. The assertor may of course 38 II, 2 | that he has rendered the genus as an accident; e.g. suppose 39 II, 2 | predicate drawn from the genus is never ascribed to the 40 II, 2 | rendered "coloured" as its genus, seeing that he has used 41 II, 4 | same thing, look at its genus; e.g. if we want to show 42 II, 4 | proof proceeds from the genus and relates to the species: 43 II, 4 | species: for "to judge" is the genus of "to —perceive"; for the 44 II, 4 | from the species to the genus: for all the attributes 45 II, 4 | the species belong to the genus as well; e.g. if there is 46 II, 4 | for "disposition" is the genus of knowledge. Now the former 47 II, 4 | attributes that belong to the genus should belong also to the 48 II, 4 | necessity belong also to the genus; for if "man" is good, then 49 II, 4 | which do not belong to the genus do not belong to the species 50 II, 4 | necessity wanting to the genus.~Since those things of which 51 II, 4 | those things of which the genus is predicated must also 52 II, 4 | that are possessed of the genus in question, or are described 53 II, 4 | terms derived from that genus, must also of necessity 54 II, 4 | any way derived from the genus (e.g. that the soul is in 55 III, 1 | does not come within the genus "x"-e.g. justice than a 56 III, 1 | former falls within the genus "good", whereas the other 57 III, 1 | happen to belong to the genus in question is called by 58 III, 6 | if some member of another genus exhibit such and such a 59 III, 6 | while no member of that genus exhibits that character 60 III, 6 | only by means of another genus can you overthrow a view, 61 IV, 1 | examine questions relating to Genus and Property. These are 62 IV, 1 | themselves. If, then, a genus be suggested for something 63 IV, 1 | which belong to the same genus as the thing mentioned, 64 IV, 1 | mentioned, and see whether the genus suggested is not predicated 65 IV, 1 | be laid down to be the genus of "pleasure", see whether 66 IV, 1 | clearly good’ is not the genus of pleasure: for the genus 67 IV, 1 | genus of pleasure: for the genus is predicated of all the 68 IV, 1 | therefore "white" is not the genus of snow, nor is the soul 69 IV, 1 | see whether it fits the genus mentioned, as (e.g.) is 70 IV, 1 | these attributes is the genus but an accident, since we 71 IV, 1 | Moreover, see whether the genus and the species be not found 72 IV, 1 | that "white" is not the genus either of "snow" or of " 73 IV, 1 | good, or noble, is not the genus of knowledge. For the genera 74 IV, 1 | multiple’, which is the genus of "double", is itself also 75 IV, 1 | To speak generally, the genus ought to fall under the 76 IV, 1 | substance, so too should be the genus, and if the species be a 77 IV, 1 | be a quality, so too the genus should be a quality; e.g. 78 IV, 1 | necessary or possible for the genus to partake of the object 79 IV, 1 | which has been placed in the genus. "To partake" is defined 80 IV, 1 | admits the definition of the genus, whereas the genus does 81 IV, 1 | of the genus, whereas the genus does not admit that of the 82 IV, 1 | therefore, and see whether the genus rendered partakes or can 83 IV, 1 | were to render anything as genus of ‘being" or of "unity": 84 IV, 1 | result will be that the genus partakes of the species: 85 IV, 1 | rendered is true, while the genus is not so, e.g. supposing " 86 IV, 1 | knowledge" were stated to be the genus of "object of opinion". 87 IV, 1 | object of knowledge" is the genus of "object of opinion": 88 IV, 1 | species is predicated, the genus ought to be predicated as 89 IV, 1 | the object placed in the genus be quite unable to partake 90 IV, 1 | it should partake of the genus if it do not partake of 91 IV, 1 | these do partake of the genus alone. If, therefore, "Motion" 92 IV, 1 | Motion" be stated as the genus of pleasure, you should 93 IV, 1 | and therefore not of the genus either, since what partakes 94 IV, 1 | since what partakes of the genus must necessarily partake 95 IV, 1 | individuals as well partake in the genus and the species, as (e.g.) 96 IV, 1 | if the term placed in the genus has a wider denotation than 97 IV, 1 | wider denotation than the genus, as (e.g.) "object of opinion" 98 IV, 1 | species of being: for the genus is always of wider denotation 99 IV, 1 | see if the species and its genus have an equal denotation; 100 IV, 1 | species and the other as its genus, as for example Being and 101 IV, 1 | so that neither is the genus of the other, since their 102 IV, 1 | any rate neither is the genus of the other. The elementary 103 IV, 1 | all such cases is that the genus has a wider denotation than 104 IV, 1 | narrower denotation than the genus.~See also whether the genus 105 IV, 1 | genus.~See also whether the genus mentioned fails, or might 106 IV, 1 | different have the same genus. If, therefore, it be shown 107 IV, 1 | the "indivisible" is their genus. For the aforesaid term 108 IV, 1 | aforesaid term is not the genus of divisible lines, and 109 IV, 2 | also, if there be any other genus of the given species which 110 IV, 2 | which neither embraces the genus rendered nor yet falls under 111 IV, 2 | that "knowledge" is the genus of justice. For virtue is 112 IV, 2 | justice. For virtue is its genus as well, and neither of 113 IV, 2 | knowledge could not be the genus of justice: for it is generally 114 IV, 2 | both fall under the same genus; for each of them is a state 115 IV, 2 | these things is true of the genus rendered; for if the genera 116 IV, 2 | rendered could not be the true genus.~Look, also, at the genus 117 IV, 2 | genus.~Look, also, at the genus of the genus rendered, and 118 IV, 2 | also, at the genus of the genus rendered, and so continually 119 IV, 2 | continually at the next higher genus, and see whether all are 120 IV, 2 | rendered is not the true genus. [Again, see whether either 121 IV, 2 | see whether either the genus itself, or one of its higher 122 IV, 2 | species: for the higher genus does not partake of any 123 IV, 2 | that what has been named as genus be admitted to belong to 124 IV, 2 | what has been rendered as genus is also predicated in the 125 IV, 2 | The premiss that when one genus is predicated in the category 126 IV, 2 | what has been rendered as genus belongs at all, it is not 127 IV, 2 | rendered "locomotion" as the genus of walking, it is not enough 128 IV, 2 | necessity what partakes of the genus partakes also of one of 129 IV, 2 | the first division of the genus. If, therefore, walking 130 IV, 2 | locomotion would be the genus of walking.~Again, look 131 IV, 2 | species is predicated as genus, and see if what is rendered 132 IV, 2 | what is rendered as its genus be also predicated in the 133 IV, 2 | genera higher than this genus are so predicated as well. 134 IV, 2 | rendered is not the true genus: for had it been the genus, 135 IV, 2 | genus: for had it been the genus, then both the genera higher 136 IV, 2 | useful to see whether the genus fails to be predicated in 137 IV, 2 | result will be that the genus and the species will be 138 IV, 2 | we wish to establish as genus is not subordinate to the 139 IV, 2 | as shown that it is the genus.~Look, also, at the definitions 140 IV, 2 | been rendered is not the genus.~Again, see if he has rendered 141 IV, 2 | rendered the differentia as the genus, e.g. "immortal" as the 142 IV, 2 | e.g. "immortal" as the genus of "God". For "immortal" 143 IV, 2 | of a thing is never its genus. And that this is true is 144 IV, 2 | the differentia inside the genus, e.g. by taking "odd" as 145 IV, 2 | thought to partake of the genus: for what partakes of the 146 IV, 2 | for what partakes of the genus is always either a species 147 IV, 2 | does not partake of the genus, so that "odd" too is no 148 IV, 2 | does not partake of the genus.~Moreover, see whether he 149 IV, 2 | whether he has placed the genus inside the species, e.g. 150 IV, 2 | wider denotation than the genus, whereas it ought to be 151 IV, 2 | whether he has placed the genus inside the differentia, 152 IV, 2 | if he has mentioned the genus as differentia: for it is 153 IV, 2 | upon common rules: for the genus should have a wider denotation 154 IV, 2 | can be satisfied: for the genus will both have a narrower 155 IV, 2 | differentia belonging to the genus be predicated of the given 156 IV, 2 | species, neither will the genus be predicated of it; e.g. 157 IV, 2 | prior and abolishes the genus along with itself: for the 158 IV, 2 | if it be possible for the genus stated, or for its differentia, 159 IV, 2 | terms stated could be its genus or its differentia: for 160 IV, 2 | general view is that the genus and the differentia accompany 161 IV, 3 | if what is placed in the genus partakes or could possibly 162 IV, 3 | partake of any contrary of the genus: for in that case the same 163 IV, 3 | things, seeing that the genus is never absent from it, 164 IV, 3 | partake, of the contrary genus as well. Moreover, see whether 165 IV, 3 | impossible for any member of the genus to have. Thus (e.g.) if 166 IV, 3 | species be a homonym of the genus, and employ as your elementary 167 IV, 3 | with homonymity: for the genus and the species are synonymous.~ 168 IV, 3 | synonymous.~Seeing that of every genus there is more than one species, 169 IV, 3 | given one belonging to the genus stated: for if there should 170 IV, 3 | been stated could not be a genus at all.~Look and see, also, 171 IV, 3 | also, if he has rendered as genus a metaphorical expression, 172 IV, 3 | harmony": a "harmony": for a genus is always predicated of 173 IV, 3 | well be found in the same genus as the species, supposing 174 IV, 3 | the species, supposing the genus to have no contrary; for 175 IV, 3 | to be found in the same genus, if there be no contrary 176 IV, 3 | there be no contrary to the genus. Supposing, on the other 177 IV, 3 | there is a contrary to the genus, see if the contrary of 178 IV, 3 | be found in the contrary genus: for of necessity the contrary 179 IV, 3 | must be in the contrary genus, if there be any contrary 180 IV, 3 | there be any contrary to the genus. Each of these points is 181 IV, 3 | species be not found in any genus at all, but be itself a 182 IV, 3 | at all, but be itself a genus, e.g. "good": for if this 183 IV, 3 | this be not found in any genus, neither will its contrary 184 IV, 3 | contrary be found in any genus, but will itself be a genus, 185 IV, 3 | genus, but will itself be a genus, as happens in the case 186 IV, 3 | neither of these is found in a genus, but each of them is a genus. 187 IV, 3 | genus, but each of them is a genus. Moreover, see if both genus 188 IV, 3 | genus. Moreover, see if both genus and species be contrary 189 IV, 3 | Moreover, whenever the genus has no contrary, look and 190 IV, 3 | species be found in the same genus, but the intermediate as 191 IV, 3 | intermediate as well: for the genus containing the extremes 192 IV, 3 | black: for "colour" is the genus both of these and of all 193 IV, 3 | excess" are found in the same genus (for both are in the genus " 194 IV, 3 | genus (for both are in the genus "evil"), whereas moderate 195 IV, 3 | also whether, while the genus has a contrary, the species 196 IV, 3 | species has none; for if the genus be contrary to anything, 197 IV, 3 | been rendered is not the genus. If, on the other hand, 198 IV, 3 | species be found in the genus stated, suppose the genus 199 IV, 3 | genus stated, suppose the genus have no contrary: for if 200 IV, 3 | species is found in the genus stated: for whatever genus 201 IV, 3 | genus stated: for whatever genus contains the intermediate 202 IV, 3 | extremes as well. Again, if the genus have a contrary, look and 203 IV, 3 | is found in the contrary genus: for if so, clearly also 204 IV, 3 | question is found in the genus in question.~Again, consider 205 IV, 3 | co-ordinates of species and genus, and see whether they follow 206 IV, 4 | opposite be found in the genus rendered: for either the 207 IV, 4 | absolutely nowhere in the same genus, or at least not in the 208 IV, 4 | not in the same ultimate genus: e.g. if the ultimate genus 209 IV, 4 | genus: e.g. if the ultimate genus containing sight be sensation, 210 IV, 4 | privation opposed to both genus and species, but the opposite 211 IV, 4 | found in the opposite of the genus, then neither could the 212 IV, 4 | species rendered be in the genus rendered. If, then, you 213 IV, 4 | be found in the opposite genus, then also the species in 214 IV, 4 | question would be found in the genus in question: e.g. if "blindness" 215 IV, 4 | at the negations of the genus and species and convert 216 IV, 4 | impossible, if "good" be the genus of pleasant, that anything 217 IV, 4 | for of things of which the genus is not predicated, none 218 IV, 4 | good, so that "good" is the genus of "pleasant".~If the species 219 IV, 4 | relative term, see whether the genus be a relative term as well: 220 IV, 4 | relative term, so too is the genus, as is the case with "double" 221 IV, 4 | on the other hand, the genus be a relative term, there 222 IV, 4 | called by the name of its genus: e.g. if the term "double" 223 IV, 4 | multiple" could not be the genus of "double".~Moreover, see 224 IV, 4 | called by the name of its genus, and also when called by 225 IV, 4 | of all the genera of its genus. For if the double be a 226 IV, 4 | when called by that of its genus: for "knowledge" is called 227 IV, 4 | Again, see whether the genus and the species be used 228 IV, 4 | species is used, so should the genus be as well, as in the case 229 IV, 4 | whereas "other", which is the genus of these terms, demands 230 IV, 4 | the one term is not the genus of the other.~Again, see 231 IV, 4 | whether the species and the genus fail to be used in relation 232 IV, 4 | one: and "grant" is the genus of "present", for a "present" 233 IV, 4 | universally true that species and genus are used in relation to 234 IV, 4 | have the opposite of the genus as its genus, e.g. whether, 235 IV, 4 | opposite of the genus as its genus, e.g. whether, if "multiple" 236 IV, 4 | whether, if "multiple" be the genus of "double", "fraction" 237 IV, 4 | fraction" be also the genus of "half". For the opposite 238 IV, 4 | For the opposite of the genus should always be the genus 239 IV, 4 | genus should always be the genus of the opposite species. 240 IV, 4 | of sensation" is not the genus of "object of knowledge": 241 IV, 4 | neither is "sensation" the genus of "knowledge".~Seeing that 242 IV, 4 | term of one kind inside a genus that is not of that kind, 243 IV, 4 | say that "abiding" is the genus of memory, or to allege 244 IV, 5 | is a "state" inside the genus "activity", or an activity 245 IV, 5 | or an activity inside the genus "state", e.g. by defining " 246 IV, 5 | attendant feature as the genus, e.g. "pain" as the genus 247 IV, 5 | genus, e.g. "pain" as the genus of "anger" and "conception" 248 IV, 5 | but neither of them is genus to it. For when the angry 249 IV, 5 | could the former be the genus of the latter: for the denotation 250 IV, 5 | for the denotation of the genus should be wider.~See, also, 251 IV, 5 | the species contains the genus as well: e.g. what contains " 252 IV, 5 | the result will be that genus and species are not found 253 IV, 5 | species partakes of the genus attributed only in some 254 IV, 5 | the general view that the genus is not thus imparted only 255 IV, 5 | of any of its species the genus be imparted only in a certain 256 IV, 5 | perception" could not be the genus of "animal".~Sometimes also 257 IV, 5 | body" could not be the genus of animal, seeing that it 258 IV, 5 | capacity" can never be the genus of anything blameworthy. 259 IV, 5 | impossible to place in a single genus, e.g. the "cheat" and the " 260 IV, 5 | must be put not into one genus, but into both the aforesaid 261 IV, 5 | in converse order render genus as differentia, and differentia 262 IV, 5 | differentia, and differentia as genus, defining (e.g.) astonishment 263 IV, 5 | nor "vehemence" is the genus, but the differentia: for 264 IV, 5 | and "conception" are the genus, while "excess" and "vehemence" 265 IV, 5 | which is affected, as its genus, e.g. those who say that 266 IV, 5 | So then "life" is not the genus of immortality.~Again, see 267 IV, 5 | affection he has ascribed as genus the object of which it is 268 IV, 5 | those things of which the genus is not true, but only in 269 IV, 5 | only in cases where the genus rendered is a true predicate. 270 IV, 5 | terms rendered could be the genus: for the genus should be 271 IV, 5 | could be the genus: for the genus should be true of all its 272 IV, 6 | rendered fail to be the genus of anything at all; for 273 IV, 6 | it also fails to be the genus of the species mentioned. 274 IV, 6 | objects that partake of the genus fail to be specifically 275 IV, 6 | one another, whereas of a genus the species are always different, 276 IV, 6 | white" could not be the genus of anything.~Again, see 277 IV, 6 | whether he has named as genus or differentia some feature 278 IV, 6 | has rendered "Being" as a genus, clearly it would be the 279 IV, 6 | clearly it would be the genus of everything, seeing that 280 IV, 6 | predicated of everything; for the genus is never predicated of anything 281 IV, 6 | all things of which the genus is predicated, the species 282 IV, 6 | wider than, that of the genus. For if the genus, too, 283 IV, 6 | of the genus. For if the genus, too, be some attribute 284 IV, 6 | denotation, while if the genus do not follow everything, 285 IV, 6 | inherent in S" be used of the genus rendered in relation to 286 IV, 6 | that it could not be the genus: for "true of S" is the 287 IV, 6 | description used of the genus in relation to its species. 288 IV, 6 | Look and see also if the genus fails to be synonymous with 289 IV, 6 | with its species. For the genus is always predicated of 290 IV, 6 | whenever both species and genus have a contrary, and he 291 IV, 6 | contraries inside the worse genus: for the result will be 292 IV, 6 | be found in the remaining genus, seeing that contraries 293 IV, 6 | will be found in the worse genus and the worse in the better: 294 IV, 6 | of the better species the genus too is better. Also see 295 IV, 6 | and not inside the better genus, when it is at the same 296 IV, 6 | of the two, this is the genus into which the soul should 297 IV, 6 | a view, see whether the genus admits of a greater degree, 298 IV, 6 | another". If, therefore, the genus rendered admits of a greater 299 IV, 6 | rendered could not be the genus.~Again, if what is more 300 IV, 6 | generally, thought to be the genus be not so, clearly neither 301 IV, 6 | clearly neither is the genus rendered. The commonplace 302 IV, 6 | cannot say which of them is genus; e.g. both "pain" and the " 303 IV, 6 | thought to be found in the genus rendered be not found therein, 304 IV, 6 | you should see if both the genus rendered and the species 305 IV, 6 | possible for one not to be the genus of the other. For both " 306 IV, 6 | degree, and neither is the genus of the other. On the other 307 IV, 6 | have a like claim to be genus, then if one be a genus, 308 IV, 6 | genus, then if one be a genus, so also is the other. Likewise, 309 IV, 6 | what has less claim be a genus, so also is what has more 310 IV, 6 | than "virtue" to be the genus of self-control, and virtue 311 IV, 6 | self-control, and virtue be the genus, so also is capacity. The 312 IV, 6 | claim to be a species of the genus in question, then if the 313 IV, 6 | should look and see if the genus is predicated in the category 314 IV, 6 | has been rendered as the genus, supposing the species rendered 315 IV, 6 | then clearly it will be the genus. If, on the other, the species 316 IV, 6 | look and see whether the genus be predicated in the category 317 IV, 6 | you should distinguish the genus from the differentia by 318 IV, 6 | principles - (a) that the genus has a wider denotation than 319 IV, 6 | more fitting to state the genus than the differentia: for 320 IV, 6 | signifies a quality of the genus, whereas the genus does 321 IV, 6 | of the genus, whereas the genus does not do this of the 322 IV, 6 | be distinguished from the genus in this manner. Now seeing 323 IV, 6 | the aforesaid manner any genus in which you want to establish 324 IV, 6 | convertible with it, from its genus, if A follows B universally, 325 IV, 6 | which always follows is the genus, whenever the other is not 326 IV, 6 | still "not-being" is not the genus of "coming to be": for " 327 IV, 6 | Questions, then, in regard to Genus should be investigated in 328 V, 3 | be rendered should be the genus, and then the rest of it 329 V, 4 | that fall under the same genus, being under the genus " 330 V, 4 | same genus, being under the genus "animal", while the other 331 V, 4 | that of differentiae of the genus, viz. of "animal". This 332 VI, 1 | though the object has a genus, he has failed to put the 333 VI, 1 | object defined into the genus, or to put it into the appropriate 334 VI, 1 | it into the appropriate genus (for the framer of a definition 335 VI, 1 | place the object in its genus, and then append its differences: 336 VI, 1 | elements of the definition the genus is usually supposed to be 337 VI, 1 | object in the appropriate genus, or if the expression be 338 VI, 1 | commonplace rules that relate to genus and property.~It remains, 339 VI, 2 | Moreover, if harmony be the genus of temperance, then the 340 VI, 3 | that fall under the same genus as the object defined: for 341 VI, 3 | to be redundant. For the genus ought to divide the object 342 VI, 3 | things contained in the same genus. Now any term that belongs 343 VI, 3 | that fall under the same genus does not separate it off 344 VI, 3 | things contained in the same genus. Any addition, then, of 345 VI, 4 | define a thing through its genus and its differentiae, and 346 VI, 4 | the species. For annul the genus and differentia, and the 347 VI, 4 | the species be known, the genus and differentia must of 348 VI, 4 | walking" are), whereas if the genus or the differentia be known 349 VI, 4 | are derived from the same genus are simultaneous by nature 350 VI, 5 | though the object is in a genus, it has not been placed 351 VI, 5 | has not been placed in a genus. This sort of error is always 352 VI, 5 | how to count: whereas the genus is meant to indicate just 353 VI, 5 | placed in its own proper genus, one must examine it according 354 VI, 5 | and so by leaving out the genus of justice he fails to express 355 VI, 5 | in each case bring in its genus. It is the same thing if 356 VI, 5 | not put into its nearest genus; for the man who puts it 357 VI, 5 | be put into its nearest genus, or else to the higher genus 358 VI, 5 | genus, or else to the higher genus all the differentiae ought 359 VI, 5 | appended whereby the nearest genus is defined. For then he 360 VI, 5 | mentioned the subordinate genus by an expression instead 361 VI, 5 | mentions merely the higher genus by itself, does not state 362 VI, 5 | not state the subordinate genus as well: in saying "plant" 363 VI, 6 | has stated be those of the genus. For if a man has not defined 364 VI, 6 | be a differentia of the genus. For a genus is always divided 365 VI, 6 | differentia of the genus. For a genus is always divided by differentiae 366 VI, 6 | it yet is not true of the genus, for then, clearly, neither 367 VI, 6 | be a differentia of the genus; for differentiae that are 368 VI, 6 | thing are all true of the genus to which the thing belongs. 369 VI, 6 | the addition of it to the genus fails to make a species. 370 VI, 6 | specific differentia of the genus: for a specific differentia, 371 VI, 6 | differentia, if added to the genus, always makes a species. 372 VI, 6 | Moreover, see if he divides the genus by a negation, as those 373 VI, 6 | has not any breadth. The genus will then be found to partake 374 VI, 6 | length" as well, i.e. the genus of "line", will be either 375 VI, 6 | are differentiae, and the genus and differentia constitute 376 VI, 6 | of the species. Hence the genus would admit of the definition 377 VI, 6 | necessity predicated of the genus. The usefulness of this 378 VI, 6 | it be predicable of the genus that it has breadth or that 379 VI, 6 | it is to be true of the genus at all: and this is contrary 380 VI, 6 | those who assert that a genus is always numerically one; 381 VI, 6 | absolute animal are the genus.~It may be that in some 382 VI, 6 | difference between dividing the genus by a negation, and dividing 383 VI, 6 | only, so that again the genus is divided by a negation.~ 384 VI, 6 | see if he has stated the genus as the differentia, e.g. " 385 VI, 6 | state: for "good" is the genus of "virtue". Or possibly " 386 VI, 6 | possibly "good" here is not the genus but the differentia, on 387 VI, 6 | consequently, if "state" is the genus of virtue, clearly "good" 388 VI, 6 | clearly "good" cannot be its genus: it must rather be the differentia’. 389 VI, 6 | attribute, any more than the genus is: for the differentia 390 VI, 6 | species, is predicable of the genus, then he could not have 391 VI, 6 | possibly be predicated of the genus, seeing that the genus is 392 VI, 6 | the genus, seeing that the genus is the term with the widest 393 VI, 6 | of all. Again, see if the genus be predicated of the differentia; 394 VI, 6 | general view is that the genus is predicated, not of the 395 VI, 6 | ought to be posterior to the genus, but prior to the species.~ 396 VI, 6 | mentioned belongs to a different genus, neither contained in nor 397 VI, 6 | contained in nor containing the genus in question. For the general 398 VI, 6 | differentiae imports its own genus, e.g. "walking" and "biped" 399 VI, 6 | biped" import with them the genus "animal". If, then, each 400 VI, 6 | subordinate members of the same genus". Thus "walking animal" 401 VI, 6 | subordinate members of the same genus" ought therefore to be added; 402 VI, 6 | with it the whole of the genus to which it belongs, but 403 VI, 8 | itself or in respect of its genus, see whether the definition 404 VI, 8 | itself or in respect of its genus, is relative, e.g. if he 405 VI, 8 | whatever it is, to which its genus is relative. Or see if a 406 VI, 9 | species of that to which the genus is rendered as relative, 407 VI, 11| else he has exchanged the genus and not the differentia, 408 VI, 11| knowledge; for the one is the genus and the other the differentia, 409 VI, 11| the differentia, and the genus is always the most familiar 410 VI, 11| differentia, and not the genus; in which case, clearly, 411 VI, 11| also be that denoting the genus and not the differentia. 412 VI, 11| differentia rather than of the genus that a definition should 413 VI, 11| is less familiar than the genus.~If he has rendered the 414 VII, 1 | relation. Again, see if the genus of each be not the same, 415 VII, 1 | or see if, though the genus is the same, the differentiae 416 VII, 3 | First of all, see that the genus rendered is correctly rendered; 417 VII, 3 | be found in the contrary genus to that stated in the definition, 418 VII, 3 | you is not in that same genus, then it would clearly be 419 VII, 3 | clearly be in the contrary genus: for contraries must of 420 VII, 3 | necessity be either in the same genus or in contrary genera. The 421 VII, 3 | Seeing, then, that both the genus and the differentiae have 422 VII, 3 | be found within the same genus: of things whose genera 423 VII, 3 | the definition consists of genus and differentiae, if the 424 VII, 3 | found either in the same genus or in the contrary genus, 425 VII, 3 | genus or in the contrary genus, and likewise also the differentiae 426 VII, 3 | predicated either the same genus as of its contrary, while, 427 VII, 5 | definition rendered the one is genus and the other differentia, 428 VII, 5 | differentia, and that only the genus and differentiae are predicated 429 VII, 5 | regard to the property and genus of a term also. For in both 430 VII, 5 | definition. In regard to the genus, it is clear that you are 431 VII, 5 | Moreover, in establishing a genus it is not enough to show 432 VII, 5 | also that it belongs as genus has to be shown; whereas 433 VII, 5 | be not peculiar, or the genus rendered be the wrong one, 434 VII, 5 | thing in question, yet the genus may very well not belong 435 VII, 5 | property need not belong as a genus, nor the accident as a genus 436 VII, 5 | genus, nor the accident as a genus or property, so long as 437 VII, 5 | stated belong, and that the genus rendered is the true genus, 438 VII, 5 | genus rendered is the true genus, and that the formula is
