The French translation with commentary, the first in a modern language, allows historians of philosophy access to a fundamental work for the understanding of medieval and modern thought. They could also explore more easily the great variety of information contained in the commentary of Simplicius on the history of the exegis of the Catégories of Aristotle, and more generally on the history of comparative philosophy of Simplicius. They will discover some important aspects in the actual thought of Simplicius, which so far has hardly been explored.

This book brings together twenty articles giving a comprehensive view of the work of the Aristotelian commentators. First published in 1990, the collection is now brought up to date with a new introduction by Richard Sorabji. New generations of scholars will benefit from this reissuing of classic essays, including seminal works by major scholars, and the volume gives a comprehensive background to the work of the project on the Ancient Commentators on Aristotle, which has published over 100 volumes of translations since 1987 and has disseminated these crucial texts to scholars worldwide. The importance of the commentators is partly that they represent the thought and classroom teaching of the Aristotelian and Neoplatonist schools and partly that they provide a panorama of a thousand years of ancient Greek philosophy, revealing many original quotations from lost works. Even more significant is the profound influence - uncovered in some of the chapters of this book - that they exert on later philosophy, Islamic and Western. Not only did they preserve anti-Aristotelian material which helped inspire Medieval and Renaissance science, but they present Aristotle in a form that made him acceptable to the Christian church. It is not Aristotle, but Aristotle transformed and embedded in the philosophy of the commentators that so often lies behind the views of later thinkers. [author's abstract]

On the whole one may say of this collection that it has given S. much of his due as a major commentator on, and preserver of, earlier Greek philosophy, and as such it is warmly to be welcomed, but it is notable that in only three papers, those of Blumenthal (who may after all be talking about Priscian), Luna, and Sorabji, is any distinctive doctrine of S.'s being discussed. But perhaps this is reasonable: after all, S. is not a man of great originality, nor does he claim to be (most even of what seems distinctive probably goes back to Iamblichus or Syrianus/Proclus); yet it may at some time be possible to produce a slim volume devoted primarily to his doctrinal innovations.

By 'in a subject' I mean what (a) is in something, not as a part, and (b) cannot exist separately from what it is in. (Aristotle, Categories la24-5) These lines have been extensively discussed in recent years. [...] The task I've set for myself in this paper is not to argue for either the weak or the strong interpretation of inherence in Aristotle. That is already a well-tr;odden path. Instead I shall look at what the ancient commentators on Aristotle had to say on the subject. Which interpretation, the strong or the weak, do they support? My strategy is to focus on one of the many problems they consider, that of fragrance, and to see if their treatment of it yields an answer. [pp. 290 f.]

[B]oth the content of Themistius’ works, and such evidence as we have of the commentators’ attitudes to him, show that he was predominantly a Peripatetic. In this he stood out against the tendencies of his time. His frequently expressed admiration for Plato does not invalidate this conclusion. Themistius may rightly claim to have been the last major figure in antiquity who was a genuine follower of Aristotle. For him, unlike his contemporaries, Plato does not surpass the master of those who know but he, and Socrates, ‘innanzi agli altri piu presso gli stanno’. [Conclusion, p. 123]

New generations of scholars will benefit from this reissuing of classic essays, including seminal works by major scholars, and the volume gives a comprehensive background to the work of the project on the Ancient Commentators on Aristotle, which has published over 100 volumes of translations since 1987 and has disseminated these crucial texts to scholars worldwide.\r\n\r\nThe importance of the commentators is partly that they represent the thought and classroom teaching of the Aristotelian and Neoplatonist schools and partly that they provide a panorama of a thousand years of ancient Greek philosophy, revealing many original quotations from lost works. Even more significant is the profound influence - uncovered in some of the chapters of this book - that they exert on later philosophy, Islamic and Western. Not only did they preserve anti-Aristotelian material which helped inspire Medieval and Renaissance science, but they present Aristotle in a form that made him acceptable to the Christian church. It is not Aristotle, but Aristotle transformed and embedded in the philosophy of the commentators that so often lies behind the views of later thinkers.

Thus  all  that  Simplicius  is  saying,  on  Eudemus’ 
authority,  is  that  Anaximander  ‘was  the  first  to 
discuss’  the  sizes  and  distances  of  ‘planets’,  using the  latter  term  to  include  sun  and  moon;  and this  agrees  with  what  the  doxographers  tell  us: Anaximander  had  views  about  the  distances  of  sun and  moon,  and  the  size  of the  sun.11  A   sceptic,  like Dicks,  may  question  this  whole  tradition;  but  it should  not  be  claimed  that  what  Simplicius  says  of Anaximander  and  planômena in  471.2-6  is  incon­sistent with  our  other authorities.

[Conclusion, pp. 268 f.]: Proclus had once taken a year comparable circumstances (90), so that Damascius and his colleagues -
 whether or not they were the persons named by Agathias - could
 encourage themselves with the knowledge that philosophic activity in
 Athens had once before been resumed after a break. And then, for
 whatever reasons, the hope was not fulfilled. If this is right, then the
 year 529 must be allowed to retain its traditional significance. But not
 all of it. Greek philosophy, if not openly the Platonist kind, continued to
 be taught elsewhere and when, a century later, Heraclius called
 Stephanus to Constantinople to hold an official chair of philosophy (91),
 Neoplatonism was installed in the capital with the blessing of the
 Emperor himself.

An  important fragment of  the lost  portion  of  Aristotle's Poetics is  the definition of synonyms preserved by Simplicius,' which corresponds to Aristotle's own citation of the Poetics for synonyms in the Rhetoric, 3. 2. 1404b 37 ff. I shall argue elsewhere that this derives from a discussion of  the sources of  verbal humour in the lost account of 
comedy  and humour. Here it is  my  aim to  show  that  Simplicius definitely derived the quotation  from Porphyry, which pushes back the attestation of  this part of  the Poetics  by  more  than  two  centuries (although  the citation  in  the Antiatticist,  Poet. fr. 4  Kassel, is  older still). Furthermore, I  shall show  that some  of  the words in  the 
definition are a  gloss  added by Porphyry for the purposes of  his own  polemic. [introduction, p. 323]

These  are  a  few  examples  of  how  the  Neoplatonist  commenta­
tors  confronted  Alexander  on  matters  where  differences  could 
hardly fail  to  arise. What happens  is  clear enough.  But it would be 
wrong to think that these principles of interpretation are not applied 
at  other  points  in  the  work.  Let  us  take  an  apparently  innocuous 
issue like the section where Aristotle discusses locomotion under the 
stimulus  of the  appetitive  faculty  (433  b  8sqq.). Alexander, giving a 
clearly  Aristotelian  explanation,  said  that  the  faculty  was  moved 
accidentally.  Plutarch  differed,  and  said  that  the  activity  of  the 
appetitive  faculty  is  movement:  this  Simplicius  describes  as  a  Pla­
tonic explanation, and prefers it (302,23-30).44 On the other hand, a 
few  pages  below  Simplicius  prefers  Alexander  to  Plutarch  on  the 
question  whether  moving  but  ungenerated  entities  have  sense-per­
ception  (320,33-34):  we  have  already  looked  at  his  and  Stephanus’ account  of  this  passage.45  As  we  indicated,  Stephanus  there quotes 
Alexander only to disagree with him, and here we have at least one 
piece  of  evidence  to  show  that  Neoplatonist  commentators  could 
take a different view of the same passage. If we had more examples

accept them, and thus incidentally of the precise differences between 
these commentators themselves on the points at issue. [pp. 90 f.]

What happens is clear enough. But it would be \r\nwrong to think that these principles of interpretation are not applied \r\nat other points in the work. Let us take an apparently innocuous \r\nissue like the section where Aristotle discusses locomotion under the \r\nstimulus of the appetitive faculty (433 b 8sqq.). Alexander, giving a \r\nclearly Aristotelian explanation, said that the faculty was moved \r\naccidentally. Plutarch differed, and said that the activity of the \r\nappetitive faculty is movement: this Simplicius describes as a Pla\u00ad\r\ntonic explanation, and prefers it (302,23-30).44 On the other hand, a \r\nfew pages below Simplicius prefers Alexander to Plutarch on the \r\nquestion whether moving but ungenerated entities have sense-per\u00ad\r\nception (320,33-34): we have already looked at his and Stephanus\u2019 account of this passage.45 As we indicated, Stephanus there quotes \r\nAlexander only to disagree with him, and here we have at least one \r\npiece of evidence to show that Neoplatonist commentators could \r\ntake a different view of the same passage. If we had more examples \r\nof texts where Alexander\u2019s views of the De anima were discussed by \r\nmore than one of his successors, we should be able to form a clearer \r\npicture of how far the different commentators were prepared to \r\naccept them, and thus incidentally of the precise differences between \r\nthese commentators themselves on the points at issue.

The importance of  Alexander of  Aphrodisias in the Aristotelian 
tradition in Western  philosophy is  well  established.  This reputa›
tion however rests almost exclusively on his very influential inter›
pretation of Aristotle’s doctrine of the active intellect. The subject 
of the present study, the de mixtione, is a treatise in which he deals 
with  the  philosophically  less  important  topic  of  the  mixture  of 
physical bodies.  My  aim is  to show that both as  an exposition of 
Aristotelian thought and as an extended discussion of Stoic physics 
it offers  an excellent  opportunity to observe  the development  of 
Peripatetic scholasticism  in the face  of  ideas  developed  in post›
Aristotelian  philosophy.  In this  way  I  shall  try to establish  the 
largely unacknowledged importance of Alexander’s contribution to 
the Greek philosophical tradition. 
Alexander  is  still  unfortunately  a  relatively  obscure  author 
and so I  have devoted Part One of this study to a basic description 
of  his works and a  preliminary attempt to place him in his intel›
lectual milieu. His philosophical creativity, as this essay will show, 
has  greater  rein  in  his  short  treatises  than  in  his  monumental 
commentaries, and it is from these works that his relation to other 
philosophical  schools  can  best  be  gauged.  Like  his  de  Jato  the 
de  mixtione is basically an attack on the Stoics, but it also contains 
a  great  deal  of  important source  material and some  constructive 
criticisms of Stoic physics. Much of this I shall evaluate in a com›
mentary in Part Three,  but these  aspects  of  the work  must also 
be seen  in the light of  similar contributions by our other sources 
for  Stoic  physics  as  well  as  Alexander’s  own  overall  relation  to 
Stoicism.  For this reason in Part Two  I  survey the latter before 
undertaking  an  extended  examination  of  Alexander’s  exposition 
and critique of  the Stoic theory of total blending (xpiia~<;  8~’  lSAwv), the main subject of the de  mixtione. [preface]

The text discusses an excerpt of a set of leaves from a fourteenth-century manuscript called Laurentianus 71, 32, containing paraphrases of several works. Theodore Waitz uses these leaves for scholia on Aristotle's Categories and De Interpretatione. The heading of the leaves is "Peri tês tou pote katêgorias," and the work consists of two parts. The first part discusses Time, based on Physics 4, while the second part deals with the category of When, which Aristotle only briefly mentions. The author of the work is believed to be Boethus of Sidon, the Peripatetic, who wrote a commentary on the Categories, as mentioned by Simplicius in his own commentary on the same work. Boethus is seen as a conservative who defended Aristotle against innovations, particularly Andronicus of Rhodes' attempt to substitute the category of Time for When. [introduction]

This text discusses the Aldine edition of Simplicius' commentary on Aristotle's Physics, published in 1526. The author explains the meticulous process followed by Alde Manuce and his collaborators to prepare and compare various manuscripts of classical texts before printing them. The text also discusses the continuity of quality in Aldine editions after the death of Alde, and identifies Francesco d'Asola as the editor responsible for the 1526 edition of Simplicius. While d'Asola's conjectures are criticized as being "too bold," the author notes that there is a possibility he may have had access to the original source material. Overall, the article provides insight into the printing and publishing practices of the Aldine press during the Renaissance. [introduction/conclusion]
