But it is notorious that there were four things in their world-view which do not fit this caracterization: time, place, the void and the so-called \u2018sayables', or lekta (SE AM 10.218 = FDS 720). Lekta consist of three main kinds of quasi-linguistic item: centrally, simple propositions (as well as certain non-assertoric, but grammatically autonomous, items) are \u2018complete\u2019 lekta (DL 7 .6-8 = FDS 696, 874; SE AM 8.70-74). From these propositions, more complex \u2018complete\u2019 lekta maybe constructed, such as conditionals (DL 7.71) or syllogisms (DL 7.63). And within the structure of complete lekta, \u2018incomplete\u2019 lekta, such as predicates, maybe discerned. I call lekta quasi-linguistic, rather than linguistic, because, as we learn from an important passage in Sextus (AM 8.11-13 = FDS 67), the Stoics distinguished lekta both from language and from physical objects in the world. Hence linguistic items such as the verb (rh\u00eama) \u2018writes\u2019 and the complete sentence (logos) \u2018Socrates writes\u2019 should be kept rigorously apart from their corresponding lekta - the predicate (katigorema) writes and the complete proposition (axidma) Socrates writes - which the linguistic expressions signify (semainein: SE AM 8.11 - 12, DL 7.56, 58, 65). \r\nIn this paper I shall examine the Stoic treatment of the main constituents of the complete lekton: cases and predicates. I shall argue that cases are, like predicates, (incomplete) lekta, and that the verbal noun played a central role in Stoic thinking about lekta. In the light of these reflections, I shall conclude with some speculative remarks on the unity of the proposition.

He produced detailed commentaries on several of Aristotle's works. Those on the Physics, which alone come to over 1,300 pages in the original Greek, preserve a centuries-old tradition of ancient scholarship on Aristotle.\r\nIn Physics Book 5 Aristotle lays down some of the principles of his dynamics and theory of change. What does not count as a change: change of relation? the flux of time? There is no change of change, yet acceleration is recognised. Aristotle defines 'continuous', 'contact', and 'next', and uses these definitions in discussing when we can claim that the same change or event is still going on.\r\nThis volume is complemented by David Konstan's translation of Simplicius' commentary on Physics Book 6, which has already appeared in this series. It is Book 6 that gives spatial application to the terms defined in Book 5, and uses them to mount a celebrated attack on atomism. Simplicius' commentaries enrich our understanding of the Physics and of its interpretation in the ancient world.","btype":1,"date":"1997","language":"English","online_url":"","online_resources":"https:\/\/uni-koeln.sciebo.de\/s\/p3xyHwwxMtdOBQm","doi_url":null,"categories":[],"authors":[{"id":435,"full_name":"Urmson, James O.","role":{"id":3,"role_name":"translator"}},{"id":62,"full_name":"Simplicius Cilicius","role":{"id":1,"role_name":"author"}}],"book":{"id":89,"pubplace":"London","publisher":"Bloomsbury","series":"Ancient Commentators on Aristotle","volume":"","edition_no":null,"valid_from":null,"valid_until":null},"booksection":null,"article":null},"sort":[1997]}

His successors found nothing \r\nmuch to read; the Lyceum sank into a decline; and Peripatetic ideas \r\nhad little influence on the course of Hellenistic philosophy. It was only \r\nwith the rediscovery of the library that Aristotelianism revived\u2014 and it \r\nrevived in Italy. For the library' went from the Troad to Athens\u2014 \r\nwhence, as part of Sulla\u2019s war-booty, to Rome. There Andronicus of \r\nRhodes produced the \u2018Roman edition\u2019 of the corpus Aristotelicum. It was \r\nthe first complete and systematic version of Aristotle\u2019s works, the first \r\npublication in their full form of the technical treatises, the first genu\u00ad\r\ninely critical edition of the text. Andronicus\u2019 Roman edition caused a \r\nsensation. It revitalised the languishing Peripatetics. It set off an \r\nexplosion of Aristotelian studies. It laid the foundation for all subse\u00ad\r\nquent editions of Aristotle\u2019s works, including our modern texts. When \r\nwe read .Aristotle we should pour a libation to Andronicus\u2014 and to \r\nSulla.That story is the main subject of the following pages.
