The collection of nineteen articles in Jaap Mansfeld’s Studies in Early Greek Philosophy span the period from Anaximander to Socrates. Solutions to problems of interpretation are offered through a scrutiny of the sources, and also of the traditions of presentation and reception found in antiquity. Excursions in the history of scholarship help to diagnose discussions of which the primum movens may have been forgotten. General questions are treated, for instance the phenomenon of detheologization in doxographical texts, while problems relating to individual philosophers are also discussed. For example, the history of Anaximander’s cosmos, the status of Parmenides’ human world, and the reliability of what we know about the soul of Anaximenes, and of what Philoponus tells us about the behaviour of Democritus’ atoms.

The Pythagorean idea that number is the key to understanding reality inspired Neoplatonist philosophers in Late Antiquity to develop theories in physics and metaphysics based on mathematical models. This book examines this theme, describing first the Pythagorean interests of Platonists in the second and third centuries and then Iamblichus's programme to Pythagoreanize Platonism in the fourth century in his work On Pythagoreanism (whose unity of conception is shown and parts of which are reconstructed for the first time). The impact of Iamblichus's programme is examined as regards Hierocles of Alexandria and Syrianus and Proclus in Athens: their conceptions of the figure of Pythagoras and of mathematics and its relation to physics and metaphysics are examined and compared with those of Iamblichus. This provides insight into Iamblichus's contribution to the evolution of Neoplatonism, to the revival of interest in mathematics, and to the development of a philosophy of mathematics and a mathematizing physics and metaphysics.

Book Six of Aristotle's Physics, which concerns the continuum, shows Aristotle at his best. It contains his attack on atomism which forced subsequent Greek and Islamic atomists to reshape their views entirely. It also elaborates Zeno's paradoxes of motion and the famous paradoxes of stopping and starting. This is the first translation into any modern language of Simplicius' commentary on Book Six. Simplicius, the greatest ancient authority on Aristotle's Physics whose works have survived to the present, lived in the sixth century A.D. He produced detailed commentaries on several of Aristotle's works. Those on the Physics, which alone come to over 1300 pages in the original Greek, preserve not only a centuries-old tradition of ancient scholarship on Aristotle but also fragments of lost works by other thinkers, including both the Presocratic philosophers and such Aristotalians as Eudemus, Theophrastus and Alexander. The Physics contains some of Aristotle's best and most enduring work, and Simplicius' commentaries are essential to an understanding of it. This volume makes the commentary on Book Six accessible at last to all scholars, whether or not they know classical Greek. It will be indispensible for students of classical philosophy, and especially of Aristotle, as well as for those interested in philosophical thought of late antiquity. It will also be welcomed by students of the history of ideas and philosophers interested in problem mathematics and motion. [offical abstract]

Questo volume ottavo della Collana "Symbolon" è frutto di lunga e intelligente fatica di ricerca e di studio da parte di una delle mie più valenti allieve e collaboratrici, la dott. D. P. Taormina, che ha il merito di avere fornito, con i risultati di questo suo lavoro, la prima monografia completa, corredata dalla raccolta delle fonti mai prima d'ora compiuta (testo, traduzione e ampio commento), su uno dei più decisivi, ancorché poco studiati, anelli di collegamento tra il primo e l'ultimo neoplatonismo, ovverossia tra l'eredità immediata di Plotino e l'esplosione dell'attività speculativa più matura e sistematica della filosofia neoplatonica. Alla fine del IV secolo d. C., quando il pensiero cristiano era ormai divenuto adulto ad opera di pensatori quali Origene, Mario Vittorino e Agostino (tutti debitori del platonismo e del neoplatonismo), si ebbe ad Atene, nella vecchia e gloriosa culla della civiltà antica, una rinascita della tradizione platonica ad opera di un pensatore destinato a divenire maestro degli ultimi maestri di platonismo dell'antichità. Plutarco di Atene, finora considerato piu un termine di continuità storica che un caposaldo dello sviluppo del pensiero neoplatonico, esce dalla ricerca della Taormina in tutta la sua dimensione teoretica di esegeta e filosofo che ha contribuito a preparare (assieme al suo più famoso primo discepolo, Siriano) le fondamenta piu solide dell'ultima sistemazione del platonismo (Proclo e Damscio)...

Philoponus' treatise Against Aristotle on the Eternity of the World, an attack on Aristotle's astronomy and theology is concerned mainly with the eternity and divinity of the fifth element, or 'quintessence', of which Aristotle took the stars to be composed. Pagans and Christians were divided on whether the world had a beginning, and on whether a belief that the heavens were divine was a mark of religion. Philoponus claimed on behalf of Christianity that the universe was not eternal. His most spectacular arguments, where wrung paradox out of the pagan belief in an infinite past, have been wrongly credited by historians of science to a period 700 years later. The treatise was to influence Islamic, Jewish, Byzantine and Latin thought, though the fifth element was defended against Philoponus even beyond the time of Copernicus. The influence of the treatise was not easy to trace before the fragments were assembled. Dr. Wildberg has brought them together for the first time and provided a summary which makes coherent sense of the whole. He has also studied a Syriac fragment, which reveals that the treatise originally contained an explicitly theological section on the Christian expectation of a new heaven and a new earth.

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)

Review by Victor Goldschmidt: "La modestie de son titre ne révèle qu'imparfaitement l'objet et la portée de ce livre. Il s'agit en réalité de réformer l'idée traditionnelle qu'on se faisait de deux courants de la pensée antique. C'est entre le début du ve siècle de notre ère, en effet, jusqu'au début du viie que s'étend l'espace temporel où K. Praechter, suivi par tous les savants venus après lui, avait situé ce qu'il appelait « L'École alexandrine ». Ce mouvement se distinguerait fondamentalement de l'École d'Athènes, par son abandon partiel des constructions métaphysiques de Proclus et de ses élèves, par un retour au « moyen platonisme », par ses rapports de bon voisinage avec les milieux chrétiens, et représenterait « un lieu de culture philosophiquement neutre, sans credo platonico-païen », et plaçant l'étude d'Aristote au-dessus de celle de Platon. Les traits de cette École se verraient avec une particulière netteté dans le commentaire d'Hiéroclès sur les Vers Dorés attribués à Pythagore, et dans le commentaire que Simplicius, avant d'être entré en rapport avec l'École d'Athènes, a consacré au Manuel d'Épictète. Or c'est précisément en préparant une édition commentée du commentaire de Simplicius (à paraître dans la Collection G. Budé), que l'A. a rencontré « le problème du néoplatonisme alexandrin » ; la thèse traditionnelle lui a semblé alors insoutenable, pour des raisons tant historiques que de doctrine.
En bref, comme le dit l'auteur dans une formule remarquable, ce que l'on a pris pour un « néoplatonisme plus simple » est en réalité un « néoplatonisme simplifié », et même « fragmenté », et cela uniquement pour les besoins de l'enseignement. Il est montré, en effet, d'une façon convaincante, que les deux Commentaires, d'Hiéroclès et de Simplicius, relèvent de ce que nous appellerions une propédeutique, c'est-à-dire qu'ils s'adressent à des débutants qu'il s'agit d'initier dans la « première » partie de la philosophie, réputée la plus accessible, en l'espèce l'éthique. On sait que ce problème pédagogique s'est posé dès le début dans l'École stoïcienne et qu'il a été longuement discuté par les commentateurs d'Aristote, qui donnent toutefois, généralement, la première place à la logique. Le VIIe chapitre apporte une contribution importante à l'histoire de ce problème.
D'où l'on voit déjà que c'est en apparence seulement que le résultat de l'ouvrage est négatif. Sans doute s'agit-il surtout de réfuter la thèse de K. Praechter, renouvelée par A. Cameron et Ph. Merlan ; la Conclusion se termine sur cette affirmation qu'« il n'y a pas d'école néoplatonicienne d'Alexandrie dont les tendances doctrinales différeraient des tendances propres à l'école d'Athènes ». De fait, le livre contient une interprétation développée des fragments d'Hiéroclès conservés par Photius et, surtout, de son Commentaire sur les Vers Dorés, montrant l'accord de ces textes avec le néoplatonisme « athénien ». Ces exégèses sont conduites avec fermeté, appuyées sur une vaste information, et emportent la conviction, quoi qu'il en soit de tel ou tel point de détail. Quelques questions, d'ordre plus général, pourraient être pesées. — P. 37 : il est certain que le thème du « philosophe dans l'État corrompu » est un lieu commun et que le τειχίον, dans le texte de Simplicius est clairement une réminiscence de la République (VI, 496 c-d). Est-ce suffisant pour infirmer la thèse d'A. Cameron, qui voit dans ce texte une allusion à la place faite aux philosophes néoplatoniciens après l'édit de Justinien ? De telles citations, l'auteur en convient lui-même deux pages plus loin, n'excluent nullement un « intérêt personnel » et, plus généralement, la négation de principe de « remarques autobiographiques chez les auteurs antiques » (p. 39) est exagérée et même inexacte. — P. 128 : l'exposé de Chalcidius sur le Destin, qui est un texte canonique et qui au surplus avait servi à K. Praechter à caractériser le « moyen platonisme », méritait mieux qu'un bref résumé : il était bon de rappeler qu'il s'agit, à la suite d'ailleurs de Chrysippe, du commentaire d'un texte du Xe Livre de la République ; on ne peut pas, en l'espèce, parler de « l'implication mutuelle de la providence et de VHeimarménè », et la note 40 simplifie le problème de la liberté stoïcienne, qu'on n'était pas sans doute obligé de traiter, mais auquel il fallait laisser sa complexité de problème, précisément ; l'on ne saurait écrire, en tout état de cause, que « pour les choses qui sont faites par fatalité, leur contraire aurait pu aussi bien se faire », thèse qui ne semble avoir été soutenue que par le seul Cléanthe. — Le chapitre VII répond à la question, naguère posée par R. Walzer : « Comment peut-on expliquer le fait que Simplicius, en tant que platonicien, commente les maximes éthiques d'un stoïcien ? ». La réponse combine essentiellement deux considérations : l'apathie du sage stoïcien est déjà admise dans le traité de Plotin Sur les Vertus (I, ii) et le caractère sententieux du Manuel qui convient bien à des débutants. Sans doute, du point de vue historique, est-ce là tout ce qu'on peut alléguer. De fait, l'éthique plotinienne ne se résume pas à l'idéal d'apathie et le genre gnomologique qu'on peut faire remonter aux Sept Sages avait trouvé bien d'autres illustrations, ne serait-ce que, comme l'auteur le rappelle avec raison, chez les Pythagoriciens. On se demandera plutôt si, de la part de Simplicius, le choix du Manuel ne s'explique pas plus simplement par l'attrait extraordinaire que ce petit livre a exercé de tout temps sur les lecteurs, et cela en dehors de toute appartenance à telle ou telle secte.
Une dernière question, enfin. On doit considérer que Mme Hadot a établi son propos, et que l'on ne parlera plus d'une « école alexandrine », opposée à celle d'Athènes et différenciée de celle-ci selon les traits que Praechter avait cru pouvoir constater. Il reste qu'il y a eu, dans la période en question, des néoplatoniciens vivant et enseignant à Alexandrie. Même en admettant leur « orthodoxie » foncière, ces hommes (sans parler d'Hypatie qui a subi pour la philosophie un martyre qui lui eût été épargné à Athènes) ne présentent-ils pas quelques caractères communs : rien que leur environnement culturel le ferait conjecturer. Mais ce serait là l'objet d'une autre recherche, complémentaire de celle-ci.
En attendant, on saura gré à l'auteur de cet ouvrage doublement précieux : par ses résultats intrinsèques, et en tant qu'introduction à son édition à paraître d'un texte jusqu'à présent fort peu étudié."

Il s'agit en r\u00e9alit\u00e9 de r\u00e9former l'id\u00e9e traditionnelle qu'on se faisait de deux courants de la pens\u00e9e antique. C'est entre le d\u00e9but du ve si\u00e8cle de notre \u00e8re, en effet, jusqu'au d\u00e9but du viie que s'\u00e9tend l'espace temporel o\u00f9 K. Praechter, suivi par tous les savants venus apr\u00e8s lui, avait situ\u00e9 ce qu'il appelait \u00ab L'\u00c9cole alexandrine \u00bb. Ce mouvement se distinguerait fondamentalement de l'\u00c9cole d'Ath\u00e8nes, par son abandon partiel des constructions m\u00e9taphysiques de Proclus et de ses \u00e9l\u00e8ves, par un retour au \u00ab moyen platonisme \u00bb, par ses rapports de bon voisinage avec les milieux chr\u00e9tiens, et repr\u00e9senterait \u00ab un lieu de culture philosophiquement neutre, sans credo platonico-pa\u00efen \u00bb, et pla\u00e7ant l'\u00e9tude d'Aristote au-dessus de celle de Platon. Les traits de cette \u00c9cole se verraient avec une particuli\u00e8re nettet\u00e9 dans le commentaire d'Hi\u00e9rocl\u00e8s sur les Vers Dor\u00e9s attribu\u00e9s \u00e0 Pythagore, et dans le commentaire que Simplicius, avant d'\u00eatre entr\u00e9 en rapport avec l'\u00c9cole d'Ath\u00e8nes, a consacr\u00e9 au Manuel d'\u00c9pict\u00e8te. Or c'est pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment en pr\u00e9parant une \u00e9dition comment\u00e9e du commentaire de Simplicius (\u00e0 para\u00eetre dans la Collection G. Bud\u00e9), que l'A. a rencontr\u00e9 \u00ab le probl\u00e8me du n\u00e9oplatonisme alexandrin \u00bb ; la th\u00e8se traditionnelle lui a sembl\u00e9 alors insoutenable, pour des raisons tant historiques que de doctrine.\r\nEn bref, comme le dit l'auteur dans une formule remarquable, ce que l'on a pris pour un \u00ab n\u00e9oplatonisme plus simple \u00bb est en r\u00e9alit\u00e9 un \u00ab n\u00e9oplatonisme simplifi\u00e9 \u00bb, et m\u00eame \u00ab fragment\u00e9 \u00bb, et cela uniquement pour les besoins de l'enseignement. Il est montr\u00e9, en effet, d'une fa\u00e7on convaincante, que les deux Commentaires, d'Hi\u00e9rocl\u00e8s et de Simplicius, rel\u00e8vent de ce que nous appellerions une prop\u00e9deutique, c'est-\u00e0-dire qu'ils s'adressent \u00e0 des d\u00e9butants qu'il s'agit d'initier dans la \u00ab premi\u00e8re \u00bb partie de la philosophie, r\u00e9put\u00e9e la plus accessible, en l'esp\u00e8ce l'\u00e9thique. On sait que ce probl\u00e8me p\u00e9dagogique s'est pos\u00e9 d\u00e8s le d\u00e9but dans l'\u00c9cole sto\u00efcienne et qu'il a \u00e9t\u00e9 longuement discut\u00e9 par les commentateurs d'Aristote, qui donnent toutefois, g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement, la premi\u00e8re place \u00e0 la logique. Le VIIe chapitre apporte une contribution importante \u00e0 l'histoire de ce probl\u00e8me.\r\nD'o\u00f9 l'on voit d\u00e9j\u00e0 que c'est en apparence seulement que le r\u00e9sultat de l'ouvrage est n\u00e9gatif. Sans doute s'agit-il surtout de r\u00e9futer la th\u00e8se de K. Praechter, renouvel\u00e9e par A. Cameron et Ph. Merlan ; la Conclusion se termine sur cette affirmation qu'\u00ab il n'y a pas d'\u00e9cole n\u00e9oplatonicienne d'Alexandrie dont les tendances doctrinales diff\u00e9reraient des tendances propres \u00e0 l'\u00e9cole d'Ath\u00e8nes \u00bb. De fait, le livre contient une interpr\u00e9tation d\u00e9velopp\u00e9e des fragments d'Hi\u00e9rocl\u00e8s conserv\u00e9s par Photius et, surtout, de son Commentaire sur les Vers Dor\u00e9s, montrant l'accord de ces textes avec le n\u00e9oplatonisme \u00ab ath\u00e9nien \u00bb. Ces ex\u00e9g\u00e8ses sont conduites avec fermet\u00e9, appuy\u00e9es sur une vaste information, et emportent la conviction, quoi qu'il en soit de tel ou tel point de d\u00e9tail. Quelques questions, d'ordre plus g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, pourraient \u00eatre pes\u00e9es. \u2014 P. 37 : il est certain que le th\u00e8me du \u00ab philosophe dans l'\u00c9tat corrompu \u00bb est un lieu commun et que le \u03c4\u03b5\u03b9\u03c7\u03af\u03bf\u03bd, dans le texte de Simplicius est clairement une r\u00e9miniscence de la R\u00e9publique (VI, 496 c-d). Est-ce suffisant pour infirmer la th\u00e8se d'A. Cameron, qui voit dans ce texte une allusion \u00e0 la place faite aux philosophes n\u00e9oplatoniciens apr\u00e8s l'\u00e9dit de Justinien ? De telles citations, l'auteur en convient lui-m\u00eame deux pages plus loin, n'excluent nullement un \u00ab int\u00e9r\u00eat personnel \u00bb et, plus g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement, la n\u00e9gation de principe de \u00ab remarques autobiographiques chez les auteurs antiques \u00bb (p. 39) est exag\u00e9r\u00e9e et m\u00eame inexacte. \u2014 P. 128 : l'expos\u00e9 de Chalcidius sur le Destin, qui est un texte canonique et qui au surplus avait servi \u00e0 K. Praechter \u00e0 caract\u00e9riser le \u00ab moyen platonisme \u00bb, m\u00e9ritait mieux qu'un bref r\u00e9sum\u00e9 : il \u00e9tait bon de rappeler qu'il s'agit, \u00e0 la suite d'ailleurs de Chrysippe, du commentaire d'un texte du Xe Livre de la R\u00e9publique ; on ne peut pas, en l'esp\u00e8ce, parler de \u00ab l'implication mutuelle de la providence et de VHeimarm\u00e9n\u00e8 \u00bb, et la note 40 simplifie le probl\u00e8me de la libert\u00e9 sto\u00efcienne, qu'on n'\u00e9tait pas sans doute oblig\u00e9 de traiter, mais auquel il fallait laisser sa complexit\u00e9 de probl\u00e8me, pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment ; l'on ne saurait \u00e9crire, en tout \u00e9tat de cause, que \u00ab pour les choses qui sont faites par fatalit\u00e9, leur contraire aurait pu aussi bien se faire \u00bb, th\u00e8se qui ne semble avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 soutenue que par le seul Cl\u00e9anthe. \u2014 Le chapitre VII r\u00e9pond \u00e0 la question, nagu\u00e8re pos\u00e9e par R. Walzer : \u00ab Comment peut-on expliquer le fait que Simplicius, en tant que platonicien, commente les maximes \u00e9thiques d'un sto\u00efcien ? \u00bb. La r\u00e9ponse combine essentiellement deux consid\u00e9rations : l'apathie du sage sto\u00efcien est d\u00e9j\u00e0 admise dans le trait\u00e9 de Plotin Sur les Vertus (I, ii) et le caract\u00e8re sententieux du Manuel qui convient bien \u00e0 des d\u00e9butants. Sans doute, du point de vue historique, est-ce l\u00e0 tout ce qu'on peut all\u00e9guer. De fait, l'\u00e9thique plotinienne ne se r\u00e9sume pas \u00e0 l'id\u00e9al d'apathie et le genre gnomologique qu'on peut faire remonter aux Sept Sages avait trouv\u00e9 bien d'autres illustrations, ne serait-ce que, comme l'auteur le rappelle avec raison, chez les Pythagoriciens.
