Aristotelian evolution

The Categories of Aristotle is an evolution, very important, because logic and speculative of syllogism, because it treats with much argument that is hint in Analytic first; the continuation in semiotic  meaning, this is the development of philosophical concept that uses same tool, namely the words and his significance, that is a logic exercise, evidently necessary also to Andronicus of Rhodes(100 b.Ch.-20 b.Ch.), necessary to gather traits of Aristotle that were about the logic. The dynamic of think that has foretold the syllogism is the logic exercise that is evident and obvious and nobody has said, for example: “Everything is said of substance first took as subject, or it are in it as in subject. This is evident from single case that are presented. For example, animal is predicated to man, hence a some man; in fact if it don’t predicated to nobody of men, we can’t predicate to a man…”; it is normal and palmar, but I want show that it is criterion of syllogism that in Organon, this is tool, a book of Aristotle that included, from Andronicus of Rhodes that gathered the oral lessons of Aristotle, book that pools the logic works; and the logic is principal foundation of these works, and evidently these are pooled because each work was logic, and the Categories is first of these books, in fact is evident and very simple because evidently prepares the successive Analytic, that is logic work of Aristotle, he says in this book: “About second substances, the species is major substance of gender, because is  very near to first substance…For example, we can give a information certainly more precise and specific saying that he is a man rather the animal; in fact the first nature is much more specific of some man, the second more common, and describing a some three it is give an information more precise saying that this a three and not plant”; the logic and preparation of syllogism is on going; and the reprobate is in some steps of Analytic first: “First we must say about to what corresponds the search, and we must clear that it is corresponds to demonstrative science…”. The logic is evident and very easy to follow steps: “The demonstrative proportion is different from that dialectic, because the demonstrative proportion must took one of two parts of proportion of contradiction, in fact who demonstrates not give the questions but takes, on stead the dialectic is question is question of a contradiction. But nothing difference respect to building of syllogism…: in fact both who demonstrates and who askes thinks to take something belong or no to something…”; it seems the Socratic logic but now in rational and explicative to method and the conclusion; hence Aristotle has developed these concepts that have origin in the Categories, where he has introduced these tool necessary to search, but always keeping the speculative address of his philosophy.
