And is the object of knowledge a universal or particular [tode ti] object? Aristotle's critique of Plato's theory of form\/Forms in light of his notion of actuality has generated a variety of topics that frame our inquiry: \"Understanding Eidos as Form in the Works of Aristotle as Plato's Critical Student\"; \"Aristotle on Plato's Forms as Causes\"; \"Notes on the Relationship between Plato's Parmenides and Aristotle's Metaphysics Alpha\"; \"'Separate' and 'Inactive'? Aristotle's Most Challenging Critique of Plato's 'Forms'\"; \"Too Much Unity in a City Is Destructive of the City: Aristotle against Plato's Unification Project of the Polis\"; \"Aristotle on the Soul as Actuality\"; \"Delphic Piety in the De Anima of Alexander of Aphrodisias\"; \"Aristotle and Plotinus: Act and Potency and the Two Acts\"; and \"Al-Fārābīon Habit and Imagination.\" Here, the Peripatetic readings of form and actuality are parsed from the precipice of historical, analytic, and continental approaches to the mind\/language\/object problem, with advocacy of the importance of Aristotle's contribution to this inquiry for the present age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark J.
