This work is the first English translation of Scotuss commentary on Aristotles Quaestiones super Praedicamenta. Although there are numerous Latin commentaries on Aristotles Categories, Scotuss Questions is one of the few commentaries on the Categories written in the thirteenth century covering all of Aristotles text, including the often neglected post-praedicamenta, and the only complete Latin commentary available in English. Moreover, unlike many of the commentaries, Scotuss text is one of the last commentaries to be written before the nominalist reduction of the categories to substance and quality. The question format allows Scotus a great deal of liberty to discuss the categories in detail, as well as matters that are only remotely raised by the text. Altogether, the forty-four questions cover the following subjects: questions 14 are prolegomena to the work itself and raise the question of its subject matter as well as whether there can be a science of the categories; questions 58 deal with equivocals, univocals, and denominatives; questions 911 discuss Aristotles two rules regarding predication and the sufficiency of the categories; questions 1236 discuss the four main categories treated by Aristotle, namely, substance, quantity, relation, and quality; and the remaining eight questions discuss the post- praedicamenta.
