Der zweite Buch der Ersten Analytiken des Aristoteles ist ein bisher vergleichweise wenig beachteter und wenig kommentierter Text, der immer im Schatten des ersten Buchs mit seiner überragenden Bedeutung für die Geschichte der Logik gestanden hat. Dieser Band der Deutschen Aristoteles-Ausgabe enthält neben einer neuen Übersetzung einen ausführlichen Kommentar, der zum ersten Mal den Text Zeile für Zeile entschlüsselt und so die Fülle von Themen erschliesst, die dort behandelt sind. Die Einleitung gibt einen Überblick über den disparaten und nicht leichten überschaubaren Text, weist seine Bedeutung für die formallogische Rekonstruktion der aristotelischen Syllogistik nach. Schwerpunkte der Interpretation liegen auf dem verwickelten und systematisch besonders spannenden Verhältnis der assertorischen Syllogistik zu modernen nicht-klassischen Logiken (insbesondere im Hinblick auf das Prinzip des ex falso quodlibet), auf die Problematik des Folgerungsbegriffs und auf der Möglichkeit einer nicht-extensionalen Rekonstruktion der Syllogistik. Der Band beitet, den Themen des Textes folgend, ausführliche Informationen zum Verhältnis der Syllogistik in Buch II zur Modallogik, Relevanzlogik, parakonsistenten Logik und konnexiven Logik, zur Theorie des indirekten Beweises bei Aristoteles, zur Argumentationstheorie an der Schwelle vom Paradigma der Rhetorik und Topik zur formalen Logik sowie Informationen zum Verhältnis der Syllogistik zur Erkenntnistheorie, zum nicht-deduktiven Argumentieren und zur Semiotik.

Frege’s puzzle concerning belief reports has been in the middle of the discussion on semantics and pragmatics of attitude reports: The intuition behind the opacity does not seem to be consistent with the thesis of semantic innocence according to which the semantic value of proper names is nothing but their referent. Main tasks of this book include providing truth-conditional content of belief reports. Especially, the focus is on semantic values of proper names. The key aim is to extend Crimmins’s basic idea of semantic pretense and the introduction of pleonastic entities proposed by Schiffer. They enable us to capture Frege’s puzzle in the analysis without giving up semantic innocence. To reach this conclusion, two issues are established. First, based on linguistic evidence, the frame of belief reports functions adverbially rather than relationally. Second, the belief ascriptions, on which each belief report is made, must be analyzed in terms of the measurement-theoretic analogy.
