Abstract
This presentation deals with the Aristotelian interpretation of the Thesis of Protagoras (TP) in Metaphysics Γ and its connection with Plato's Theaetetus. Particular attention is paid to the dispute about the difference between two formulations of TP, which takes place among modern scholars. If the first formulation only denies Principle of Non-Contradiction, the second allows Aristotle to interpret TP in the context of the teaching of Anaxagoras.
