La philosophie néoplatonicienne a développé une doctrine de la relation pédagogique entre le Maître (image visible du Bien) et les étudiants (âmes imparfaites), qui se fonde sur la définition même de la philosophie comme « assimilation à Dieu », et qui inscrit dans une perspective anagogique la pratique de l'exégèse et de l'enseignement. Dans un tel cadre, la question du « prologue » s*entend en trois sens 1) la représentation de la philosophie comme unité organique assigne à la logique aristotélicienne un statut de « commencement », à titre de « partie instrumentale » ; et le traité des Catégories est, à l'intérieur de cette « partie instrumentale », et au début du cursus néoplatonicien des études, le « proème » delà logique et de la philosophie tout entière ; 2) il existe d'autre part un véritable « genre littéraire » des introductions exégétiques, caractérisé par des schémas scolastiques de questions préalables ; et l'organisation du cursus commence par l'emboîtement de plusieurs introductions : à la philosophie en général, à la philosophie d'Aristote, à la philosophie de Platon, à chaque œuvre particulière de Porphyre (Isagogè), d'Aristote et de Platon ; 3) enfin, dans le cadre de l'explication de chaque œuvre singulière, les prologues exégétiques (et les commentaires eux-mêmes) peuvent comporter une description ou une légitimation du prologue de l'œuvre commentée : c'est le cas pour le traité aristotélicien des Catégories. L'application de critères rhétoriques d'origine platonicienne conduit à s'interroger sur la fonction et la liaison organique de ce prologue de l'œuvre commentée avec l'œuvre elle-même envisagée comme totalité organique.

Cette enquête rapide a fait apparaître cinq thèses fondamentales : 1. toute mesure confère l’unité à ce qu’elle rassemble, et le fait participer, à son niveau, de l’Un lui-même ; 2. le temps, image de l’éternité (Platon), est l ’une des « mesures rassemblantes » qui sauvent le sensible du désastre ontologique ; il est, plus proprement, la « mesure de l’extension (paratasis) de l’être » ; 3. le temps est une quantité continue (Aristote), et il est mesuré par des mesures naturelles intrinsèques ; 4. la catégorie du pote, qui est distincte du temps et de la quantité, est définie par une pure relation non convertible au temps lui-même, ou à ses « mesures naturelles » ; 5. ainsi est pensée la datation d ’un événement historique (comme la bataille de Salamine), tandis que la taxis agissante du temps ordonne, conjoint et distingue les événements historiques (la guerre de Troie et la guerre du Péloponnèse ne se confondent pas).

Simplicius of Cilicia, a Greek Neoplatonic philosopher and polymath, lived in the eastern part of the Roman Empire. He is the author of the most learned commentaries on Aristotle produced in antiquity, works which rest upon the accumulated accomplishments of ancient Greek philosophy and science. In them he gives numerous illuminating references and explanations that not only lead to a fuller understanding of Aristotle, but also allow one to reconstruct the history of the interpretation and criticism of Aristotelian doctrines in antiquity. The main principle that guides Simplicius’ exegesis is the conviction that most Greek philosophers, including some Presocratics, can be brought into agreement with Neoplatonism. Simplicius adduces copious quotations to prove his point, thereby supplying us with substantial fragments from lost works of thinkers like Parmenides, Empedocles, Anaxagoras, Eudemus and the Stoics. A devout pagan, Simplicius sought to defend traditional Greek religion and philosophy against the oppressive dominance of Christianity. His commentaries have influenced the reception and interpretation of Aristotle’s philosophy ever since. [Author’s abstract]

In this chapter I turn from Parmenides to two of his successors, examining the Pluralist theories of Anaxagoras and Empedocles, in order to explore the influence of Parmenides on these later thinkers. I argue that this influence appears in two fundamental aspects of their theories: in their conceptions of the fundamental entities that are the genuine beings of their cosmologies, and in the form (mixture and Separation of the basic entities) these cosmologies take. I begin with a short discussion of the question of Pluralism itself and then turn first to Anaxagoras and then to Empedocles. [Introduction, pp. 127 f.]

In the list of Theophrastus’ works on rhetoric and poetics as given in the new collection under 666 FHS&G one finds twenty-four items, some of them (2 and 17) subdivided into (a) and (b). Most of these titles come from the list of Theophrastus’ works in Diogenes Laertius 5.42- 50. In all but five cases (2, 6,17, 22 and 23, the last two on comedy and on the ludicrous respectively), Diogenes is our only source for them. The responsible editor, W. W. Fortenbaugh, also refers to several titles of works which other scholars had placed in the group of rhetorical trea­ tises, but his classification is different. This variation is explained by the fact that Diogenes’ list does not give any indication of the type of work to which any title belongs, which leaves scholars free to devise their own arrangement.In what follows I will discuss the place or the wording of a few titles, and especially that of 17b, thereby focusing on the nature and contents of 683 FHS&G. The editors have declined to arrange the fragments ac­ cording to known works (cp. vol. I, pp. 7-8). Nevertheless, I will argue, even by their arrangement of the titles they sometimes suggest too much, or too little. [Introduction, p. 67]

In this text, the author analyzes the contents of Philoponus' commentary on Aristotle's Physics and investigates the extent to which it reflects Theophrastus' thought. Specifically, the author focuses on a passage in which Philoponus discusses the notion of composition involved in physical forms and powers. The author argues that the parallels in wording and doctrine between Philoponus' later discussions and the earlier commentary suggest that Philoponus was the intellectual author of the passage. Furthermore, the author proposes that Philoponus included this passage to provide an explanation for Theophrastus' claim that physical forms are composite, in light of the classification of substances in the Categories commentary.

Apart from two botanical works, a collection of character sketches, and several scientific opuscula, his works survive only through quotations and reports in secondary sources. Recently these quotations and reports have been collected and published, thereby making the thought of Theophrastus accessible to a wide audience. The present volume contains seventeen responses to this material.\r\n\r\nThere are chapters dealing with Theophrastus' views on logic, physics, biology, ethics, politics, rhetoric, and music, as well as the life of Theophrastus. Together these writings throw considerable light on fundamental questions concerning the development and importance of the Peripatos in the early Hellenistic period. The authors consider whether Theophrastus was a systematic thinker who imposed coherence and consistency on a growing body of knowledge, or a problem-oriented thinker who foreshadowed the dissolution of Peripatetic thought into various loosely connected disciplines. Of special interest are those essays which deal with Theophrastus' intellectual position in relation to the lively philosophic scene occupied by such contemporaries as Zeno, the founder of the Stoa, and Epicurus, the founder of the Garden, as well as Xenocrates and Polemon hi the Academy, and Theophrastus' fellow Peripatetics, Eudemus and Strato.\r\n\r\nThe contributors to the volume are Suzanne Amigues, Antonio Battegazzore, Tiziano Dorandi, Woldemar Gorier, John Glucker, Hans Gottschalk, Frans de Haas, Andre Laks, Anthony Long, Jorgen Mejer, Mario Mignucci, Trevor Saunders, Dirk Schenkeveld, David Sedley, Robert Sharpies, C. M. J. Sicking and Richard Sorabji. The Rutgers University Studies in Classical Humanities series is a forum for seminal thinking in the field of philosophy, and this volume is no exception. Theophrastus is a landmark achievement in intellectual thought. Philosophers, historians, and classicists will all find this work to be enlightening.

In this paper I shall be considering the emerge, or rather re-emerge, of Platonic commentary around the end of the Hellenistic age. That is the period which forms the essential background to our chief surviving specimens of the genre, the great fifth-century Platonic commentaries of Proclus. Specifically, I intend to examine why Platonic philosophy came to such a large extent to take the form of commentary, and how the resources of the commentary format were deployed for the task of establishing, preserving, and exploiting Plato's philosophical authority.

As far as traditional classifications go, the Stoics count as materialists. 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 ‘sayables', 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 ‘complete’ lekta (DL 7 .6-8 = FDS 696, 874; SE AM 8.70-74). From these propositions, more complex ‘complete’ lekta maybe constructed, such as conditionals (DL 7.71) or syllogisms (DL 7.63). And within the structure of complete lekta, ‘incomplete’ 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 (rhêma) ‘writes’ and the complete sentence (logos) ‘Socrates writes’ 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). In 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. [Introduction, p. 91]

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.

This text discusses problems in Aristotle's theory of place and early Peripatetic reactions. While Aristotle's theory of place was designed as a physical rather than a metaphysical theory, it has been criticized for having unsatisfactory arguments against rival conceptions and for being primarily a theory of the location of static bodies rather than playing a role in the explanation of motion. Additionally, Aristotle's conception of place as the limit of the surrounding body produced counter-intuitive consequences. The text explores two aporiai that Aristotle did not explicitly solve and the early Peripatetic discussions surrounding them. The first aporia is whether place may count as a cause, and the second is the ontological status of Aristotelian place. [introduction]

In  den  bisherigen Untersuchungen  zur  Form  der  Kommentare  des Proklos  und  der  Neuplatoniker  im  allgemeinen  ist  vor  allem  Gewicht darauf gelegt worden,  daß  die  Kommentare  aus  der mündlichen  Exegese der  Texte hervorgegangen  sind  und  die  Formen  dieser  mündlichen 
Exegese  sich  in  den  schriftlich  fixierten  Werken  widerspiegeln.  Neben Spuren  mündlicher  Ausdrucksformen  und  Reflexen  von  Schuldiskussio­nen  gehört  zu  diesen  Formen  vor  allem  die  Gliederung  der  Exegese  in Abschnitte,  die Vorlesungseinheiten  (praxeis)  entsprechen,  und  die 
Unterteilung  der  einzelnen  Abschnitte  in  Allgemeinerklärung  (theôria) und  Einzelerklärung  (lexis).  Bis  jetzt  blieb  jedoch  weitgehend  die  Frage außer  B etracht,  ob  und  wie  sich  die  von  den  Exegeten  selbst  redigierten 
Kommentare  von  Vorlesungsnachschriften  unterscheiden.  Es  erscheint 
deshalb  sinnvoll,  den  Blickwinkel  einmal  umzukehren  und  zu  fragen, welche  spezifischen  Formelemente  sich  in  den  Kommentaren  des  Proklos 
und  anderer  Neuplatoniker  aufzeigen  lassen,  wenn  man  sie  in  erster Linie  als  literarische  Erzeugnisse  und  nicht  als  Niederschlag  mündlicher Exegese  betrachtet.  Im  folgenden  soll  zu  diesem  Zweck  nach  einigen

 Aristotle’s conception of identity is too large a subject to be 
analyzed in a single article. I will try to discuss here just one of the 
many problems raised by his views on sameness. It is not, perhaps, 
the most stimulating question one could wish to see treated, but it is 
a question about logic, where I feel a little more at ease than among 
the complicated and obscure riddles of metaphysics. My subject will 
be Aristotle’s  references to what is nowadays called ‘Leibniz’ Law* 
(YLL)’)\ if two objects x and y are the same, they both share all the 
same properties. [...] It is perhaps worth remembering that (LL) must be distinguished 
from what is normally called the ‘principle of substitutivity’ (‘(SP)*) 
according to which substitution of expressions which are said to be 
the  same  is  truth  preserving.  As  has  been  shown,  (LL)  does  not 
entail  (SP), since there are counterexamples to (SP) that do not fal­
sify (LL).2 Not only (SP), but also  (LL), has been doubted by some 
modern  logicians. The  question  is  far from  being settled  and  it is 
perhaps of interest to examine how ancient logicians tried to manage 
this problem.First,  I will  consider Aristotle’s statements  about  (LL)  and  the 
analyses he gives of some supposed counterexamples to this princi­
ple. Secondly, the interpretations of his view among his Greek com­
mentators  will  be  taken  into  account  and  their  distance  from  the 
position of the master evaluated. As  Professor Moraux has taught 
us, the study of the Aristotelian tradition often gives us the opportu­
nity of understanding Aristotle’s own meaning better. [Introduction, pp. 57 f.]

The text discusses research on the fragments of Simplicius' commentary on Aristotle's Metaphysics. It focuses on a scholia found in Codex Regius (Paris, gr. 1853) that mentions Simplicius as the author of a commentary on Aristotle's work. The scholia refers to a specific passage in Metaphysics I, 983 b 8, where the interpretation of the term "eidos" creates difficulties. The scholia contrasts the interpretations proposed by Alexandre d'Aphrodise and Simplicius, highlighting their differing views on the meaning of "eidos." The author argues that the scholia indicates familiarity with Simplicius' commentary, suggesting that Simplicius was known and studied in the first half of the 13th century. The scholia also mentions Michel d'Ephese and Jean Italos, providing clues about the context and potential dating of the scholia's composition. [introduction]

In this paper, I shall address a particular aspect of the disharmony, more precisely how it is interpreted and resolved by Simplicius in his commentary
on Aristotle’s On the Heavens: the question about the being and temporality of the κόσμος. Plato’s and Aristotle’s positions appear to be contrary on this point, since the former, in the Timaeus, insists on the creation of the world by the Demiurge, whereas the latter, in his On the Heavens, asserts the eternity of the heavens. Far from being a triviality, this difference will lead Simplicius to develop hermeneutical strategies designed to restore the harmony between his authorities.
From our perspective, the question about the eternity of the world offers a fruitful case study, insofar as it forces Simplicius to mobilize all the strategies he usually uses in this commentary to restore the harmony between Plato and Aristotle. Also I shall lead here a parallel investigation on two separate fronts. First, I will identify the methodological principles implemented through the attempt at harmonising, so as to contribute to our understanding
of Simplicius’ way of exegesis. Then, I will investigate the conceptual effect, regarding cosmology, reached by this attempt. In other words, I will explore how Simplicius’ interpretative tools lead him to produce some new philosophical theses. [Introduction, pp. 101 f.]
