Zabarella on Prime Matter and Extension

In his discussion of prime matter in De rebus naturalibus, Jacob Zabarella (1533–1589) defends the position that is extended. However, it less clear how he accounts for its extension. There an important text where apparently suggests extended and itself (the intrinsically view). there are two other texts stating virtue a distinct accident category quantity accidentally quantified Each interpretation has been represented by contemporary commentator, based upon corresponding texts. I argue decisive reading solely any particular text(s) not available. Nevertheless, examining Zabarella’s writing on topic as whole, trajectory overall argument remarkably sympathetic to Averroes, who famously took position. Thus, from this systematic feature, more reasonable.
