The Treatment of Void in Aristotle's Physics

The purpose of my project was to write a thorough and exhaustive monograph on Aristotle’s treatment of void in Physics IV 6–9, accompanied by a comparison with other Aristotelian texts, such as On the Heavens and On Generation and Corruption.

In particular, I intended to examine in depth the Aristotelian rebuttal of void and demonstrate that his analysis of void brings to light significant aspects of his theory of place and motion. Furthermore, I have investigated the theories of void proposed by earlier philosophers (i.e., Atomists and Pythagoreans) and show that Aristotle clarifies these prior conceptions.
