This video focuses on Aristotle's work, the Categories, and examines his distinction in chapter 5 of the distinction between primary and secondary substances. Primary substances are existing individual things, which function as the underlying subjects that other things either are in or are predicated of. Secondary substances include species and genera, and are not substances in a full sense of the term.
