This monograph critically examines Aristotelian essentialism and modal logic, analyzing interpretations of Aristotle's modal syllogistic and developing a consistent model. It explores mixed apodictic syllogisms, situates Aristotle's modal metaphysics within the Posterior Analytics, and contrasts it with contemporary modal metaphysics, suggesting its relevance to modern philosophical debates.
