Thesis 2>51

Latin

Necessarium est dicere secundum Auenroem quod substantia est de intrinseca quiditate accidentis, et est opinio et Aristoteli et philosophiae maxime consona.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 19670

English

Following Averroes, one must hold that substance forms part of an accident's intrinsic quiddity, a view that agrees closely with both Aristotle and philosophy at large.

'quiditas' kept as the technical term quiddity.
