 Description: The term “abstraction” is the usual expression in medi- eval philosophical terminology for several processes distinguished in Aristotle's writings by different terms, viz., aphairesis (ἄφαιρεσις) and korismos (χωρισμός) described in different ways. In all probability, it was Boethius who introduced the Latin abstractio and abstrahere to translate these Greek nouns and the re- lated verbs.
