[Conclusion, p. 14]: We have seen that it was only in the twentieth century, after the two World Wars, that the study of Commentaria in Aristotelem Graeca began to come into its own as a field of research.44 Among the first to make profitable use of the CAG were those Orientalists, chiefly from Germany, who were interested in Greek-Arabic connections and translations. In the case of Alexander, the availability of critical editions of the texts made it possible to identify the Greek counterparts of many short pieces transmitted in Arabic under his name but with titles different from those familiar to us.

My aim in this paper is to discuss some examples of the problems Renaissance scholars encountered in this regard [i.e. he great advantage of having Greek texts available in print]. In this first section, I will be concerned with a few sixteenth-century scholars and the close attention which they paid to the first Greek printed edition of the Quaestiones of Alexander of Aphrodisias. [p. 49]
