- Аннотация: The concepts of hierarchy and rank lay in the fundament of biological taxonomy. Some discoveries of the last years have opened the possibility of viewing the foundations of taxonomic theory from a new perspective. This book presents the history of the concepts of hierarchy and rank, from Aristotle's time and up to modern days. Their evolution is traced from popular views on names and systems of living beings, through the logical arrangement of parts system, carried up by Aristotle's followers, and up to the construction of the taxonomic system itself. The formulation of the toolset of taxonomic concepts required a substantial modification of the logical apparatus, as well as the adoption of the notion of the complete list of natural objects, together with a change in the concept of the Observer. In this book it is analyzed the evolution of the concept of rank in the views of Porphyry, Dionysius the Areopagite, Averroes, and of Medieval scholiasts. The rank concept evolved as part of the scientific revolution history that took place in the XVI and XVII centuries and represents one of the key ideations of the new rationality. The emergence of fixed ranks in biology is traced back, particularly to the works of Cesalpino, Linnaeus and to the biological taxonomy works of the XIX century. The evolution of the biological rank concept is compared to the evolution of another important system of scientific concepts: the category of digit in numerical systems. A comparison of the notions of rank in taxonomy and the digit category in numerical systems helps understanding the logic of evolution of these concepts in the culture before the advent of science, and their transformations after the emergence of scientific knowledge. The subsequent development of the concept of rank is traced up to present times and is discussed in the light of the ideas of molecular systematics.
