8 ~REFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This book is an elaboration of the study which I submitted as a dissertation at the University of Leiden in the autumn of It was conceived on the basis of the conviction that for all the work done on this subject, there is still not a satisfactory explanation of Aristotle's modal logic. To the present day all efforts to detect in Aristotle's works a coherent and consistent theory of modalities have utterly failed. Many studies of Aristotelian modalities have appeared which deal with various isolated aspects or with particular text fragments without any attempt to fit the findings into a more comprehensive framework which could be named 'Aristotle's modal theory'. Most of the studies with a wider scope have even ended up with the conclusion that there is no general Aristotelian theory of modalities. The few reconstructions which seek to show this theory to be coherent and consistent can, on the other hand, all be proved to be defective. These facts show that many of the ideas underlying Aristotle's handling of modalities are still obscure. Some of these ideas pertain to the meaning of the logical operators 'necessary' and 'possible'. To this day, not even the outlines of Aristotle's logic of these modal qualifiers are known. Nevertheless, knowledge of his modal logic seems clearly to be a necessary precondition for a complete understanding of the many doctrines and discussions of Aristotle in which modalities are involved. As a consequence it seems worth exploring Aristotle's modal logic not only for its own sake, but also for more general reasons. The present book is an exposition of several basic aspects of Aristotle's views on the logic of modalities. In the course of my exposition it will appear that the body of his theory as expounded in Chapters Two and Three of this study is simply and transparent. In fact, it is so simple that it will hardly be able to excite the formal logician. Yet, some aspects of Aristotle's extension of this basic theory, especially the semantical presuppositions of his logic of modally qualified categorical sentences as set out in Chapters Eight and Nine, may strike those who are working on theories of reference. As a consequence of this simplicity, readers who have no knowledge of modern formal logic should have no trouble with the main line of this study. Most of the argument will be completely accessible to them. Some basic knowledge of modern logic, however, will certainly facilitate the reading of Chapter Nine.
9 x PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The book opens with an exposition of the subject and programme of the study. Next, in Chapters Two and Three, Aristotle's general ideas about the logic of modalities are set out. Chapter Four introduces the main competing reconstruction of Aristotle's modal logic, i.e., Hintikka's interpretation in terms of the statistical model. In this model, what is always the case is necessary, and what is possible is at least once actualized. In the course of the next chapters, I develop my rejection of Hintikka's view while elaborating my own interpretation. In Chapter Five I show how the socalled proof of the necessity of what is always in De Caelo 1.12 can be incorporated in the general framework set out in Chapters Two and Three. Several other explanations of De Caelo 1.12, including that of Hintikka, are rejected. Chapter Six shows how an interpretation of De Interpretatione 9 can be provided on the basis of Aristotle's general theory of modalities. In Chapters Seven and Eight, the relation between omnitemporality or permanency and necessity in Posterior Analytics is explored. It appears that there is no discrepancy between what Aristotle is saying here and the contents of De Caelo Finally, in Chapter Nine, Aristotle's apodeictic syllogistic is examined. It is shown that its base consisting of the perfect apodeictic moods, the apodeictic conversion rules and apodeictic ecthesis is sound with respect to the interpretation Aristotle has in mind. Moreover, a striking variance between what is said about apodeictic syllogisms in Prior Analytics and in Posterior Analytics is dissolved. Hence, the outcome of this study is that Aristotle's modal logic exhibits a coherence and consistency which is much greater than it has usually been credited with. The debts I have incurred while I was writing this book are numerous. One of my principal debts is to Professor L.M. de Rijk of the University of Leiden, who has been a source of intellectual stimulation during the entire period of conceiving and preparing this work. Other persons have contributed to its completion as well. Professor G. Nuchelmans meticulously read an earlier version of this study and helped me with several valuable remarks. I have also profited from the criticism and advice of Professor H.M. Bracken, who draw my attention to various flaws in the penultimate version. Dr. J.A. van Eck criticized an earlier draft of Chapter Six. Professor S. Knuuttila commented on an older version of Chapter Seven, while Dr. E.C.W. Krabbe saved me from some infelicities in Chapter Nine. I owe thanks as well to Mr. J. Kearey, who corrected my English. Much of Chapter Seven ap-

Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to Ms. C. de Ruiter and Ms. M. Schoor1emmer, who produced the typescripts of several drafts of this text with great patience and care.
