Medieval commentary writing has often been described as a way of "doing philosophy," and not without reason. The various commentaries on Aristotle's Categories we have from this period did not simply elaborate a dialectical exercise for training students; rather, they provided their authors with an unparalleled opportunity to work through crucial philosophical problems, many of which remain with us today. As such, this unique commentary tradition is important not only in its own right, but also to the history and development of philosophy as a whole. The contributors to this volume take a fresh look at it, examining a wide range of medieval commentators, from Simplicius to John Wyclif, and discussing such issues as the compatibility of Platonism with Aristotelianism; the influence of Avicenna; the relationship between grammar, logic, and metaphysics; the number of the categories; the status of the categories as a science realism vs. nominalism; and the relationship between categories. |

Simplicius ’ commentary on the Categories, probably written about 538 A.D.,1 seems to have had little impact on the Latin-speaking world until March of 1266, when it was translated into Latin by William of Moerbeke (c. 1215–c. 1286) [...]. Moerbeke’s translation of Simplicius commentary on the Categories was used in the 13th century by Siger of Brabant , Henry of Ghent , Giles of Rome, and Godefroid de Fontaine (part of whose manuscript is now the ms. latin 16080 of the Paris Bibliothèque Nationale). Duns Scotus refers to it frequently as an authoritative work, and it is cited by Jean Quidort , Peter of Auvergne , Jacques de Thérines , Durand de St. Pourçain , Thomas of Strasbourg , Thomas Sutton , and James of Viterbo . The work continued to be cited throughout the 14th century, by such authors as Siger of Courtrai and the anonymous author of the ms. Erfurt, Amplon. F. 135. [pp. 9-11] |
