This text is a response to Ilsetraut Hadot's book, "Le néoplatonicien Simplicius à la lumière des recherches contem¬poraines. Un bilan critique," which provides a critical overview of scholarly research on the Neoplatonist Simplicius. The author critiques Hadot's approach, arguing that her use of the Neoplatonic curriculum and medieval testimonies is an unsafe guide for assessing Simplicius' life and works. The article concludes by thanking Hadot for her previous work on Simplicius and acknowledging the value of her contributions to the field. [introduction/conclusion]

The book reviewed in this text is I. Hadot's "Le néoplatonicien Simplicius à la lumière des recherches contemporaines. Un bilan critique", which presents a comprehensive evaluation of contemporary research on the life and work of the Neoplatonist philosopher Simplicius, as well as his reception in the Arab world. The book consists of three sections that respectively cover Simplicius's biography, his preserved works, and his lost works. The volume offers a rich panorama of Simplicius's studies and analyzes them to provide a complete status quaestionis on the author. The book, however, does not consider two crucial works of Simplicius: the commentaries on Physics and De Caelo, which limits its usefulness. The presentation of Simplicius's intellectual biography centers on the hypothesis that he settled in the city of Ḥarrān after leaving the court of the king Chosroes I, which the author supports with some evidence but does not provide any new conclusive arguments.

La circulation du savoir philosophique à travers les traductions du grec au syriaque, du grec à l’arabe, du syriaque à l’arabe, de l’arabe au latin forme, depuis un siècle et plus de recherches savantes, un domaine scientifique à part entière. Ce volume réunit des spécialistes des disciplines du domaine voulant rendre hommage à un collègue dont l’activité a ouvert une voie, Henri Hugonnard-Roche. Spécialiste de la transmission du grec au syriaque de la logique aristotélicienne, Henri Hugonnard-Roche a montré par ses recherches la continuité entre la philosophie de l’Antiquité tardive et la pensée des chrétiens de langue syriaque d’un côté, des savants musulmans écrivant en arabe, de l’autre. Réunis souvent par ce que Werner Jaeger avait autrefois désigné comme « la portée œcuménique de l’Antiquité classique », des musulmans et des chrétiens faisant partie d’un cercle philosophique se penchaient, dans la ville de Bagdad au Xe siècle, sur le texte d’Aristote. Leur « Aristote » était souvent celui de l’Antiquité tardive : l’Aristote de l’école néoplatonicienne d’Alexandrie que les intellectuels de la Syrie chrétienne avaient déjà rencontré quelque quatre siècles auparavant et qu’ils avaient traduit, en même temps que Galien, et parfois commenté. Des noms presque inconnus comme celui de Sergius de Resh’ayna (mort en 536) commencent dans nos manuels à en côtoyer d’autres bien plus connus, comme celui de Boèce, grâce aux recherches de Henri Hugonnard-Roche. Ce volume, par la variété des langues qui s’y entremêlent, des traditions de pensée qu’il fait fusionner, par l’acribie des contributions et le caractère novateur des éditions de textes et des études ponctuelles qu’il contient, témoigne du rayonnement international du savant auquel il est offert, et de l’effervescence du domaine de recherche auquel il a si grandement contribué.

Starting from the traditional distinction between the minimal and the maximal division, the role of subcategories in Aristotle, as well as that of the highest categories, is discussed. The need for categorial properties which determine categories is pointed out. It is argued that an existent cannot have two such essential properties and that only the lowest subcategories have simple categorial properties. Furthermore, it is emphasised that categories and subcategories must form a tree because they belong to a theory of categories which requires unity. By contrast, it is held that the hierarchy of all concepts need not form a tree. The difficulties Porphyrius and Simplicius find in Aristotle’s minimal and maximal division are analysed. Finally, Aristotle’s way of avoiding categorial properties by referring to an abstraction is criticised. [Author's abstract]

This paper gives a brief discussion of the problem of ascribing authorship to ancient philosophical texts when there is evidence both for and against traditional ascription. The case in point is tradition’s claim that Simplicius is the author of the De Anima commentary. It is argued here that, while Gabor provides new and important methodological evidence for Simplicius’s authorship, we should not expect certainty. It is suggested that, in cases where historical fact may never be ascertained, we will be better served by the notion of credences.

About thirteen years ago when I was preparing an edition of some Latin 13th century quaestiones on the Sophistici Elenchi, I discovered some puzzling references to a commentary
by "Alexander", obviously a Greek. He appeared to have been a very important man to the
Westerners, for often he was simply called 'Commentator', a title reserved in other contexts for Averroes.
This discovery gave rise to the questions,(!) Who was Alexander? (2) Are there more references to him in other Latin texts? (3) Is his work extant in Latin? (4) Is it extant in Greek?
Re 1 At first I thought he must be Alexander of Aphrodisias. Now I do not know how to answer the question.
Re 2 I soon found that Minio-Paluello and De Rijk had already signalled some other references to Alexander.
Re 3 My first investigations indicated the answer would be no, and I still have not found the text in any manuscript. 
Re 4 My early research indicated the answer would be no, but that extant Greek scholia were often comparable to the Latin quotations of Alexander.
The preliminary probings suggested that a search for more Latin references to Alexander and an inquiry into the Greek scholia on the Elenchi might throw light on the origins of Western scholasticism and at the same time prove the existence of a Byzantine scholasticism comparable to that of Western Europe in the High Middle Ages. A systematic search for more fragments of the Latin translation of Alexanders's commentary resulted in the collection that figures as Vol. II, Part 2, of this study.
Studying the Greek scholia I soon realized that they could not be used for any serious purpose as long as elementary questions of dating and attribution had not been solved. Trying to find the answer to such questions, I found that investigating the whole manuscript tradition
was inescapable. The results of that investigation are presented in Vol. 1 chapter V and the appendices (in Vol. III).
Reading the Greek scholia I became convinced that Byzantine scholasticism never produced results comparable to those of its Western counterpart; but, on the other hand, a study of the late ancient and medieval Greek scholastic tradition could, indeed, throw light on the
origins of Western logic.
The results of my investigations are presented partly in the notes on "Alexander's" fragments (in Vol. Ill), partly in a series of essays on central problems (Vol. I ch.IV).
Vol. I chapters I-II contain sketches of pre-scholastic theories of fallacies, some of which were to influence the scholastics, whereas chapter III introduces scholasticism.
As both Vol. I and Vol. III discuss Greek texts that have never been printed, I have collected a number of such texts in Vol. II, editing also Galen's De captionibus because the earlier editions are no longer satisfactory.
Chapters I through W of Vol. I all have a speculative character. I have tried to rein in my imagination, but I may not always have achieved my aim. I feel sure I have misunderstood the old philosophers on several points. Perhaps it can serve as an excuse that most of the problems I deal with have not been investigated before. If there are fundamental errors in chapter V, the consequences for the rest of 'Commentators and Commentaries' will be serious, if not disastrous. I trust, however, that my results concerning the Byzantine tradition are
essentially correct. [preface]

The philosophical commentary emerged as an important mode of expression towards the end of the Hellenistic period and into Late Antiquity, as Plato and Aristotle were regarded as philosophical authorities and their works were subject to intense study. This entry provides a concise account of how the revival of interest in the philosophy of Aristotle developed into the commentary tradition, with special emphasis on the study of the Categories. The commentary format was not only used to expound the works of Aristotle, but also as a vehicle for original philosophical theorizing. The commentators shared the practice of reading and commenting on Aristotle's texts, but there was no philosophy of the commentators in the sense of a definite set of doctrines that all the ancient commentators on Aristotle shared. The exegetical tradition was diverse, and different commentators developed different lines of interpretations in the light of the different concerns that motivated their exegesis.

The paper explores the structural aspects of the Arabic-Latin reception of Aristotle's works, particularly the approach or approaches taken by Arab philosophers in transmitting Aristotelian texts to the Latin Middle Ages. The author argues that the analysis of the doctrinal contents of the Arabic Aristotle is complex and instead focuses on the movement of rise and development of the medieval genre of philosophical commentary, particularly the line by line commentary typical of Alexander of Aphrodisias. The paper discusses the history and institutional context of the medieval philosophical commentary, including the influence of scriptural exegesis, literary and rhetorical traditions, and juridical and medical literature. The paper concludes that Neoplatonism was of paramount importance in the transmission of the Aristotelian corpus both to the Arabic and Latin Middle Ages. The paper also includes a synopsis of the Greek commentaries to Aristotle's works and their mentions in the Arab bio-bibliographical sources. [introduction/conclusion]

Students of Middle Platonism are familiar with the phenomenon that the 
accounts of the divine provided by various authors of the 2nd cent. CE strike 
one as incoherent.1 Qualifications according to the viae negationis, analogiae, 
and eminentiae, which to us seem incompatible to a degree, tend to coexist in 
a peaceful jumble. On the one hand, the essence or nature of God is described 
by means of a refusal to predicate any attributes whatsoever. Attributes with­
held in this way may be arranged in polar pairs. On the other hand, God’s exis­
tence as a supreme cause tends to be described in a positive way by means, e.g., 
of varieties of the argumentum ex gradibus entium. The theology of ch. 10 of 
Alkinoos’ Didaskalikos is a notorious instance of such a medley. [p. 92]

The fourth book of Aristotle’s Physics contains what has come to be known  as  his  ‘classical’  discussion  of  the  problems  concerning physical  place.  The  definition  of  topos  ultimately  issuing  from this  discussion,  viz.  topos  as  the  first  unmoved  boundary  of the containing  body,  became  with  some  exceptions  canonical  in  the later Aristotelian  tradition.  However,  not very surprisingly,  spatial concepts also crop  up  in  a number of other works:  the  Categories (Cat.), De  Generatione et  Corruptione  (GC), and De Caelo  (Gael.).  A survey  of  the  ways  in  which  these  works  use  spatial  terms,  in particular  the  term  topos,  will  reveal  important prima facie incon­
sistencies. The present chapter will deal with these various uses of 
topos  and  will  try  to  fit  them  all  into  a  more  or  less  coherent 
picture. [Introduction, p. 121]

Concepts of Space in Greek Thought studies ancient Greek theories of physical space and place, in particular those of the classical and Hellenistic period. These theories are explained primarily with reference to the general philosophical or methodological framework within which they took shape. Special attention is paid to the nature and status of the sources. Two introductory chapters deal with the interrelations between various concepts of space and with Greek spatial terminology (including case studies of the Eleatics, Democritus and Epicurus). The remaining chapters contain detailed studies on the theories of space of Plato, Aristotle, the early Peripatetics and the Stoics.
The book is especially useful for historians of ancient physics, but may also be of interest to students of Aristotelian dialectic, ancient metaphysics, doxography, and medieval and early modern physics.
