   The poet Thomas Gray said that reading Aristotle was like eating dried hay. This is something of an exaggeration, but his writing can be hard work. It is generally agreed that these “esoteric” (or “acroatic”) works are actually lecture notes, the working documents that he used on a daily basis for his teaching.
