Please explain to a beginner: what is metaphysics?
7 Metaphysics is the title of a collection of lectures by Aristotle. The name is not by Aristotle but due to a later librarian who edited all scriptures of Aristotle. The librarian arranged the scripts in question behind Aristotle's scripts on physics which in Greek means meta ta physica.

Is metaphysics necessarily a 'first philosophy'?
The view metaphysics=first philosophy originated from Aristotle and was still supported by Descartes. Modern science, since Galileo and Newton, rejected the idea that "science is subject to it".Quine and Carnap are on the modern side of the debate.
