Мета¶
Meta¶
(Gk. after, beyond), a prefix used in forming derivatives and meaning following something, or transition to something else. For instance, Aristotle called metaphysics so because its main problems were expounded in treatises placed after the teachings on physics by the systematisers of Aristotle's works. Some contemporary scientific theories are named accordingly, e.g., metatheory, metalogic, metamathematics, metaethics, etc.
