Medieval commentary writing has often been described as a way of "doing philosophy," and not without reason. The various commentaries on Aristotle's "Categories" we have from this period did not simply elaborate a dialectical exercise for training students; rather, they provided their authors with an unparalleled opportunity to work through crucial philosophical problems, many of which remain with US today.
