On the other hand, he was also probably – rightly! – disturbed by the increasing bad faith of dueling almost constantly because of so-called honor violations or contrived defamation.
35 The Count here refers to Conte d'Agomonte.
36 It should be noted that the named work of Aristotle, Physics, is one of the major works of the great philosopher. It’s a treatise consisting of several books.
