| It is no longer generally believed that Empedocles was the divided character portrayed by nineteenth-century scholars, a man whose scientific and religious views were incompatible but untouched by each other. Yet it is still widely held that, however unitary his thought, nevertheless he still wrote more than one poem, and that his poems can be clearly divided between those which do, and those which do not, concern 'religious matters'.1 Once this assumption can be shown to be shaky or actually false, the grounds for dividing the quotations of Empedocles into two poems by subject matter disappear; and without that division our interpretation of Empedocles stands in need of radical revision. This paper starts with the modest task of showing that Empedocles may have written only one philosophical poem and not two, and goes on to suggest some of the ways in which we have to rethink the whole story if he did. If all our material belongs to one poem we are bound to link the cycle of the daimones with that of the elements, and this has far-reaching consequences for our interpretation.

| Simplicius uses (and distorts) the concept of hypographe (of Stoic origin) in order to describe the first genera and the particulars which, in Aristotle, are not susceptible to definition. However, a closer examination of the status of science in Aristotle (with reference to the doctrine of incommunicability of genera and the problem of individuation) shows that Simplicius’ attempt is incompatible, or at least difficult to reconcile, with the aristotelianism (of Aristotle).

| My discussion will fall into four parts. In the next [sc. first] section, I will look at some of the more important features of Porphyry’s interpretation of the 'Categories’ that enabled him to downplay the evidently anti-Platonic metaphysical elements that the work contains and to turn it into a basic textbook of logic for his revived school-Platonism. Here I will be relying heavily upon an important and seminal paper by A. C. Lloyd. Then I will turn to the main arguments that Plotinus employs against what was in his day the standard interpretation of Aristode’s 'Categories’, and their implications for his view o f the nature of that work and its relation to Platonism. In the final section of the paper, we will be able to see some important connections between Plotinus’ position and Porphyry’s which throw light on the metaphysical issues connected with the important Neoplatonic thesis of the fundamental harmony of the philosophies of Plato and Aristotle.

| In the prologue to his commentary on book I of Euclid’s Elements Proclus refers to two areas of disagreement among the Platonists concerning mathematics. In the first passage in which he does this (29.14ff.) he indicates that some philoi from his own hearth encourage students to disdain mathematics, enlisting on their side Plato himself because of some of Socrates’ remarks in the Republic, notably the rhetorical question of 533 c 3-5 [...]. The second passage comes at the end of Proclus’ famous description of the character of geometry [...]. In this paper I wish to pursue these disagreements in the hopes of throwing light on distinctive features of Proclus’ philosophy of mathematics. [Introduction, p. 305] |

| [Conclusion, p. 120]: If we are prepared to assume that the basic presuppositions of impetus theory can be traced back not to observational experience which Aristotle missed, but rather to a certain concept of man and to certain ethical principles, we need not attempt to explain the emergence of the theory solely by reference to new observations of falling bodies and the like. Is it not more appropriate to ask about the origin and kind of ethical problem to which impetus theory originally helped to provide an answer? The experience that forces are exhausted in all physical activities of human beings could have been just such a problem.

| Abhandlung über die Verwendung des Begriffs 'Entelechie' bei Leibnitz: "Daß Leibniz sich, um auf unsere eingangs gestellte Frage zurück zukommen, für seinen Begriff der Entelechie nicht auf Aristoteles berufen kann, dürfte damit klar geworden sein. Aus einem Begriff, der bei Aristoteles eine Seinsweise von Gegenständen charakterisie ren soll, ist bei Leibniz ein Begriff geworden, der Seiendes selber, Monaden nämlich, charakterisiert. Aber dieses Mißverständnis eines aristotelischen Begriffs durch Leibniz, das wir damit diagnostizieren müssen, ist nicht eine simple Fehlinterpretation des aristotelischen Textes. Dieses Mißverständnis ist begünstigt worden durch eine Ar gumentation des Aristoteles, die den Charakter einer dialektischen tour de force hat und die von dem Ausdruck ,Entelecheia‘ einen in gewissem Sinn problematischen Gebrauch macht."

| 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 of texts where Alexander’s views of the De anima were discussed by more than one of his successors, we should be able to form a clearer picture of how far the different commentators were prepared to accept them, and thus incidentally of the precise differences between these commentators themselves on the points at issue.

This article discusses Plato's Lecture on the Good, the only lecture attributed to Plato by ancient sources. The lecture was attended by Aristotle and other students of Plato and was described as a blend of formal exposition, digressions, and asides. Although it was not a public success, the Lecture became famous in the ancient world for what the Neoplatonists presumed was its Pythagorean content. The Lecture played a role in the history of fifteenth-century Florentine Platonism under its chief architect, Marsilio Ficino, who was interested in reviving Neoplatonism and wedding it to Christianity while also dreaming of revitalizing the day-to-day life of the ancient Athenian Academy.

aus mehreren Gründen beschränke,2 ist dabei der Passus über die Prinzipien
Luc. 118, wo der Dissens (dissensio, Luc. 117) der Philosophen von Thaies bis
zu Platon und den Pythagoreern kritisiert wird. Diels hat hier ganz auf
fallend argumentiert. Zum einen hat er, teilweise zu Recht, hingewiesen auf
Übereinstimmungen zwischen Luc. 118 und den entsprechenden
Theophrastfragmenten bzw. Paraphrasen in Simplikios’ Kommentar zur ari
stotelischen Physik, die Usener und er den Phys. op. zugewiesen haben.3 Als
nächstes aber hat er Luc. 119-121 über die stoische Theorie der Vorsehung
(SVFI I 92 u. 1161) und über Aristoteles’ {Dephilos. fr. 20 Ross) und Stratons
(fr. 32 Wehrli) entgegengesetzte Auffassungen ausgeklammert, weil dieses
Stück nicht auf Theophrast zurückgeführt werden könne. Aus den nach
folgenden Paragraphen, die über verschiedene Ansichten von den
Himmelskörpern und der Erde referieren, hat er schliesslich 123 “Hiketas
von Syrakus, wie Theophrast sagt” {Hicetas Syracosius, ut ait Theophrastus
. . . ) usw. wieder als Beweis dafür angezogen, dass die doxographische
Übersicht zur Astronomie aus den Phys. op. stamme. In der Nachfolge Kri-
sches hatte schliesslich schon Diels zu Recht bemerkt, dass Ciceros
unmittelbare Quelle ein Akademiker, wohl ein Karneadesschüler, sein müsse.
Das Textstück über Hiketas (auch abgedruckt Vorsokr. 51.1) hat er als Phys. op.
fr. 18 aufgenommen {DG 492-3). Es ist dies der einzige Cicerotext in der
betreffenden Dielsschen Sammlung. [Introduction, p. 133] |

Es geht um die im Platonismus entwickelte Vorstellung einer Gottheit eigenen zeitlosen, zeit3berlegenen Ewigkeit, die von Plotin aus (Enneaden III 7) die abend- lindische Theologie und Mystik stark beeinfluf3t hat. Zugrunde liegt Platons Spekulation 3ber Aion und Chronos, Timaios 73 c-38 c; ausformuliert ist die These vom ewigen Jetzt fur unsere Kenntnis erstmals im mittleren Platonismus (Plutarch, De E ap. Delph. 393 A-C). Doch hat sie der Neuplatonismus - sicher- lich zu Unrecht - bereits in ein beruhmtes Parmenides-Fragment (8, 5 D.-Kr., wo es vom Sein heift, dag ,alles jetzt zusammen ist", nach U. Hoelscher) hinein- gelesen. Der Verf., der diese Oberlieferungsverhiltnisse klarend darlegt, unterzieht das Fragment im ersten Teil seiner Arbeit einer scharfsinnigen, reich dokumen- tierten Analyse. Dabei wird die Ansicht begrundet, dai3 die Texte unserer spht- antiken Zeugen (Simplikios einerseits, die vier alexandrinischen Ausleger andrer- seits) nicht iber jeden Zweifel erhaben sind. Es k6nnte sein, daf3 bei Simplikios - dem die modernen Ausgaben zu folgen pflegen - eine neuplatonische Adaption des parmenideischen Wortlauts vorliegt, so daf die uberlieferte Form von Parm. 8, 5 fur die Ermittlung der Lehre des grof3enEleaten ausscheiden muf3te - ein fur die Vorsokratikerforschung recht erhebliches Ergebnis. - In einer zweiten Unter- suchung geht der Verf. dem gleichen Motiv (,Gottes ewiges Heute': der Leser der augustinischen Confessionen hat es aus dem grofartigen Lobpreis XI 13 in Erinne- rung) bei Philon von Alexandria nach, wobei sich ein belehrender Einblick in die platonistisdhe Tradition ergibt (verwunderlich, daf3 Clemens von Alexandria nach Migne's Patrologie, Maximos von Tyros nach der alten Dibner'sdlen Ausgabe zitiert werden). Auch aristotelische und stoische Einflusse werden gepruft. W. stellt fest, daf3 die meisten Philonstellen, die man bisher im Sinn der neuplatonischen Lehre von einer zeitüberlegenen Ewigkeit gedeutet hatte, anders zu erklaren sind; eine Ausnahme scheint in einer allegorischen Auslegung des Alten Testaments (zu Levit. 2, 14) vorzuliegen (de sacrif. 76). Es bleibt dabei, daf3 das weitreidiende Thema in voller Klarheit erstmals in Plutarchs ob. gen. Dialog angesprochen wird; er hangt sicher mit dem seit Ende des 1. Jh. v. Chr. wieder rege gewordenen Studium des platonischen Timaios zusammen, welches in dem Kommentar des Alexandriners Eudoros, eines pythagoreisierenden Platonikers, moglicherweiseeine Quelle Plutarchs hervorgebracht hat (hier ware auf eine den Problemen des mitt- leren Platonismus gewidmete Arbeit H. Dbrrie's hinzuweisen gewesen, in: Les Sourdes de Plotin, Entresiens sur L'Antiquite Classique, t. V, 1957 193 it)." (Review, H. Strohm) |

This volume, dedicated to the scholar Leendert G. Westerink, comprises 16 articles across two main areas of his research interests: Neo-Platonic and Byzantine studies. The six Neo-Platonic articles explore subjects such as manuscript histories, philosophical debates, and influences of figures like Porphyry, Iamblichus, and Proclus. Notably, Father Saffrey investigates an anonymous commentary on Parmenides, while other authors delve into Neo-Platonic mathematics, hymns, and commentaries on Aristotle’s discussions of reason. The ten Byzantine studies articles cover a diverse range of historical and cultural insights. Topics include Byzantine letter-writing practices, with George Dennis highlighting humor in personal correspondence, and Cyril Mango examining the collapse of St. Sophia. Further articles focus on figures such as Psellus, Patriarch Cosmas, and fourteenth-century scholar Georgios Karbones, alongside explorations of political and religious tensions in the Ionian Islands under various European rulers. This collection offers an in-depth look at both Neo-Platonic philosophy and Byzantine cultural dynamics, illustrating the intellectual legacy of Westerink’s scholarship.

In this article, the author, Carlos Steel, aims to challenge the common belief that Guillaume de Moerbeke collaborated with Saint Thomas Aquinas. While the legend of their collaboration has been debunked by numerous scholars, Steel seeks to restore this "edifying story" of the partnership between the great speculative philosopher and the learned philologist. Steel examines the origins of the legend and how it was perpetuated over time. However, he acknowledges that the value of the ancient testimonies supporting this legend is now considered null. He plans to confront the tradition with the historical data from the medieval translations of Aristotle. Through a critical examination of the available documentation, Steel aims to provide new insights into this long-standing debate. [introduction] |

‘The articles in this volume are, in the main, the texts of papers read either in full or in part at the First International Conference on Greek Philosophy (Samos 1988)’ (from the editor’s Preface). Appropriately to such a first conference, it was devoted to the beginnings of philosophy in Greece and, more specifically, in Ionia itself. The volume includes forty- seven papers dealing with all the major figures of Ionian philosophy, from the Milesians to Anaxagoras. Pythagoras, the most illustrious native of Samos, and the Pythagoreans (technically considered an ‘Italian’ sect, but included by courtesy in the theme of the conference), attract the attention of seven scholars. The other notable Samian, Melissus, is the subject of only one contribution, by D. Furley, possibly because Melissus is usually BOOK REVIEWS 141classified by the doxographers as an Eleatic. Xenophanes of Colophon is dealt with in five of the articles. Perhaps not surprisingly, almost half of the papers deal with Heraclitus of Ephesus, just across the water from Samos. Among those excluded from this book are the Italians Parmenides, Zeno and Empedocles, and the atomists of Abdera" [Review Scolnicov] |
