The so-called regressus-method is a model for combining composition and resolution: the idea of this combinatory process is found in the Aristotelian tradition from Averroes on, and it was vitally revived among the Italian Aristotelians and medical authors. ❋ Mikkeli, Heikki (2005)
If little or nothing were known about him, or only so much as those know who have already written of him, it might, in some ways, be possible to reconstruct him by a process of deductive analysis, by what the school logicians call the regressus a principiatis ad principia. ❋ Roberts, Morley, 1857-1942 (1912)
This regress cannot, therefore, be called a regressus in indefinitum, as happened in the case of the preceding cosmological idea, the regress in which proceeded from the conditioned to the conditions not given contemporaneously and along with it, but discoverable only through the empirical regress. ❋ Immanuel Kant (1764)
Nothing further is necessary, then, for the solution of the first cosmological problem, than to decide, whether, in the regress to the unconditioned quantity of the universe (as regards space and time), this never limited ascent ought to be called a regressus in infinitum or indefinitum. ❋ Immanuel Kant (1764)
Complete regressus, i.e., complete explanation, requires that you make a fuller investigation of the cause. ❋ Duncan, Stewart (2009)
Specialized treatises cover a wide range of subjects: on the immortality of the soul, on innate heat, on the agent sense, on the regressus, on vapour, on rhetoric imitation, ❋ Unknown (2009)
Moreover, there is in Hobbes's method something like the middle step of regressus. ❋ Duncan, Stewart (2009)
Knowledge that the cause exists comes from the first step of regressus. ❋ Duncan, Stewart (2009)
Randall referred to the Renaissance discussions of regressus-method up to Zabarella as a preparation for Galileo Galilei's new method of natural science. ❋ Mikkeli, Heikki (2005)

Quod ubi peregrinus esset ingressus, uxorem tubicinis obviam euntem aspicit; illico cursum flectit, metuens ne nasus suus exploraretur, atque ad diversorium regressus est — exuit se vestibus; braccas coccineas sericas manticae imposuit mulumque educi jussit. ❋ Unknown (2003)

_ Were there no limit to such sorites, proof would always involve a _regressus ad infinitum_, for which life is too short; but, in fact, prosyllogisms soon fail us. ❋ Carveth Read (1889)
Nor could it be maintained that the Lord can be assumed to be 'embodied' by means of some other body; for this leads us into a _regressus in infinitum. ❋ George Thibaut (1881)
Brahman's nature being hidden; in this way the _regressus in infinitum_ and other difficulties will be avoided. ❋ George Thibaut (1881)
If, moreover, the two aspects on the one hand, and the thing in which they inhere on the other, be admitted to be distinct entities, there will be required a further factor to bring about their difference and non-difference, and we shall thus be led into a _regressus in infinitum. ❋ George Thibaut (1881)
For this reason the charge of a regressus in infinitum and a logical seesaw (see above, p. 32) cannot be upheld. ❋ George Thibaut (1881)
