Meaning of Aristotelianly | Babel Free

Adverb CEFR C2

Definitions

In an Aristotelian manner.

Examples

“Speaking Platonically and normatively, we attribute style to an author or charge him with lacking style; speaking Aristotelianly, we use the term as a description, hold that every author has a style, and turn our attention to analysing the specific character of this author or that.”
“We have a special name for this making, we call it 'creation', but it is not difficult to see that creation names an Aristotelianly impossible kind of making, just as transubstantiation names an Aristotelianly impossible kind of change; and for approximately the same reason.”
“As Stephen Erickson puts it in his essay, "Jaspers is more Aristotelianly in the world and Heidegger more Platonically, even Orphically, looking out beyond it."”
