| Description | Aristotle's account of the relation between dialectic, science and reality may be explained in terms of a more basic metaphysical doctrine of the relation between human faculties and their objects. If we are to allow scope for the distinction between the expert and non-expert use of faculties, this can be achieved by saying that the objects of the experts faculty are those things which really are what the objects of the others the non-experts faculties seem to be. See Aristotle, Nic. Eth. K5, 1176a15-16. This expresses forcefully Aristotle's belief that reality (einai) and appearance (phainesthai) do not exclude each other. |
