<p>In my fumbling about in Essentialism, I backed into the (implied
to me) question of whether Aristotle's <i>Katēgoriai</i> in any
way presaged or set the stage for the formal mathematics of
Category Theory and if his <i>Praedicamenta</i> was in some way
an Ontology of Epistemology? <br>
</p>
<p>I'm guessing that the postModern OO and Patterns CS types here
might have their own perspective and formalisms related to these
questions?</p>
<p>Glen's sideswipe at the term (ala Gibson) of <i>Affordances</i>
a few threads back was maybe where these thoughts first bubbled
into my awareness?</p>
