 The majority of Aristotelian scholars believe that the argument in De interpretatione 9 aims at avoiding fatalism by restricting bivalence for future contingent predictions (Frede 1970, 1985; Sorabji 1980; Craig 1988; Gaskin 1995; Crivelli 2004; Weidemann 2012). The second interpretation insists that Aristotle’s point is not to deny the truth-value of these statements, but their being true in the same way as other statements are true. The difference is that while the truth of other statements is necessary, the truth of future contingent predictions is not yet similarly determined. This interpretation is associated with Aristotle’s remark that not everything which is actual and therefore necessary is necessary without qualification (19a23). This is taken to mean that the necessity of an event at a certain time does not imply that it was inevitable. Aristotle speaks about singular future possibilities which may be realized or remain unrealized and which may or may not cease to be antecedent possibilities (see De interpretatione 19a13–17, Nicomachean Ethics III.5, 1114a17–19, Metaphysics VI.3). In the same way predictions may begin to be necessarily true or necessarily false. (For various versions of this approach, see Anscombe 1956; Rescher 1963; Hintikka 1973; Fine 1984; Judson 1988.)
