All the physical sciences have need of some definite material (fay) because they are always concerned with noses, eyes, flesh, bones, animals, plants, roots, bark, in short with material things, subject to movement. There even arises a physical science that is concerned with the soul, or rather, with a sort of soul (irepl.v-)(fi hitvs), in so far as this is not without matter. Mathematics, like philosophy, studies, not things subject to movement, but motionless being; but it differs from philosophy in not excluding the matter in which their objects are as it were incorporated (a? ev vy): the suppression of matter is obtained in them by aphairesis or The universal of the abstraction.1 This divergence between philo-"always" and r those of the sophic and physical or mathematical procedure is most the point upon which empiricism and mathematicism rely; but these, inferior here to Aristotle, deny the science of absolute being (trepl 6V0? a.-irkS;) and...
