[Footnote 41: We find the epithet [Greek: e)xôteriko\s] used once by Aristotle, not in conjunction with [Greek: lo/goi], but with [Greek: pra/xeis], designating those acts which are performed with a view to some ulterior and extraneous end ([Greek: tô=n a)pobaino/ntôn cha/rin], as contrasted with [Greek: pra/xeis au)totelei=s--oi)kei=ai]): Polit. vii. p. 1325, b. 22-29. [Greek: scholê=| **ga\r a)\n o( theo\s e)/choi kalô=s kai\ pa=s o( ko/smos, oi(=s ou)k ei)si\n e)xôterikai\ pra/xeis para\ ta\s oi)kei/as ta\s au)tô=n.] In the Eudemian Ethics the phrase [Greek: _toi=s a)llotri/ois lo/gois_ sophi/zontai] is used much in the same sense as [Greek: _toi=s e)xôterikoi=s_ lo/gois]: _i.e._ opposed to [Greek: toi=s oi)kei/ois]--to that which belongs specially to the scientific determination of the problem (Ethic. Eudem. i. p. 1218, b. 18). The phrase [Greek: dia\ tô=n e)xôterikô=n lo/gôn], in Aristot. Physic. iv. 10, p. 217, b. 31, and the different phrase [Greek: e)k tô=n ei)ôtho/tôn lo/gôn le/gesthai], in Phys. vi. 2, p. 233, a. 13, appear to have the same meaning and reference. Compare Prantl not. ad Arist. Phys. p. 501.] [Footnote 42: If we turn to the beginning of book iv. of the Physica, where Aristotle undertakes to examine [Greek: To/pos], _Place_, we shall see that he begins by a dialectic handling of [Greek: a)pori/ai], exactly analogous to that which he himself calls [Greek: e)xôterikoi\ lo/goi], when he proceeds to examine [Greek: Chro/nos], _Time_: see Physica, iv. pp. 208, a. 32-35, 209, a. 30; 210, a. 12, b. 31. He does the like also about [Greek: Keno/n], _Vacuum_, p. 213, a. 20, b. 28, and about [Greek: A)/peiron], _Infinitum_, iii. p. 204, b. 4 (with the Scholia of Simplikius, p. 364, b. 20, Br.). Compare the Scholion of Simplikius ad Physica (i. p. 329, b. 1, Br.)--[Greek: _i)/sôs_ de\] (Simplikius uses this indecisive word [Greek: i)/sôs]) [Greek: o(/ti ê( e)ph' e(ka/tera a)pori/a tou= lo/gou e)xôterikê/ tis ê)=n, ô(s Eu)/dêmo/s phêsi, dialektikê\ ma=llon ou)=sa], with this last Scholion, on p. 364, b. 20, which describes the same dialectic handling, though without directly calling it _exoteric_.]
