What has essence? - "Metaphysics" Book Z.4

Update: 2020-10-20

Description

"Essentialism" has become a deragatory word in modern philosophy, but with Aristotle having an essence is something valuable and distinctive

Aristotle considers only a very few beings to be "really real". As a result, we organisms have an essence in a much more real sense than colors and mere shapes.
