In a close reading and explanation of Aristotle\u2019s arguments, which abound in subtle observations, Simplicius comes up with several original interpretations regarding the nature of the negativity attributed to the void, demonstrating the impossible consequences of its acceptance. Following Aristotle, Simplicius distinguishes two kinds of the void, that between and outside bodies, and that interspersed with bodies. Locomotion through the void as an imputed place of motion is impossible, because there is no sufficient reason either for motion in a particular direction or for rest, since the void in its negativity allows for no distinctions, and thus for no natural places. A number of absurdities also follow from the acceptance of the void as scattered in bodies. The void is therefore out of place in the cosmos ontologically, mathematically, and physically.","btype":2,"date":"2020","language":"English","online_url":"","online_resources":"https:\/\/uni-koeln.sciebo.de\/s\/Y0YJsol7CrATPFs","doi_url":null,"categories":[],"authors":[{"id":568,"full_name":"Nikulin, Dmitri","role":{"id":1,"role_name":"author"}},{"id":256,"full_name":"Horn, Christoph","role":{"id":2,"role_name":"editor"}},{"id":431,"full_name":"Taormina, Daniela Patrizia","role":{"id":2,"role_name":"editor"}},{"id":569,"full_name":"Walter, Denis","role":{"id":2,"role_name":"editor"}}],"book":null,"booksection":{"id":1538,"section_of":1539,"pages":"231-255","is_catalog":null,"book":{"id":1539,"bilderberg_idno":null,"dare_idno":null,"catalog_idno":null,"entry_type":"bibliography","type":4,"language":"no language selected","title":"K\u00f6rperlichkeit in der Philosophie der Sp\u00e4tantike.
