Some aspects of Simplicius‘ polemical writings against John Philoponus: From invective to a reaffirmation of the transcendence of the heavens: I am not entirely comfortable at finding myself introducing a discordant note into a collection intended to celebrate the refreshing originality of Philoponus’ ideas. I shall, however, be speaking for Simplicius, vindictive pagan that he was, and shall hope to be an effective counterweight to what is said in other chapters.I shall be talking within the framework of a general interprétation of Simplicius’ com- mentary on Aristotle’s De caelo. [p. 1]

[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. Earlier society, which had left this experience chiefly to slaves, could not really have had such a problem. But, by the close of Antiquity, times were changing.

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." (p. 582)

The main conclusions of this study are two: (a) Neither Ps.-Alex- ander nor Syrianus had access to Alexander’s lost commentary on Metaph. E-N. (b) For his commentary on books M-N Syrianus made use of Ps .-Alexander’s commentary, which he mistook for the work of Alexander himself. [p. 232]

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.

[Conclusion, p. 227]: A fuller account of the fortuna of Philoponus in the sixteenth century and an analytical study of the place of his physical thought in the development of that subject during the Renaissance requires a much more concerted effort than I have been able to give here.

This text is about Simplicius's doctrine of the relation. Although Simplicius did not dedicate a specific treatise to the relation, his views can be reconstructed from his commentary on Aristotle's Categories and certain passages in his commentary on Physics. Simplicius's approach to the Categories builds upon a rich tradition of commentaries, and he offers both questions and solutions in his own commentary. The author argues that Simplicius's elaboration of the concept of relation is not necessarily original, but his writings present a valuable contribution to the clarification of the concept. The text also discusses other traditions of reflection on the categories, such as those of the Academy and the Stoics. [introduction]

This text discusses the development of Aristotelian philosophy in the Roman world from the time of Cicero to the end of the second century AD. The author describes the period as a time of transition, in which Hellenistic systems such as Stoicism and Epicureanism were dominant, followed by the scholastic restatement of Aristotelianism culminating in Alexander of Aphrodisias and of Platonism by Plotinus and his followers. The author also discusses the challenges of studying this period due to the loss of relevant literature, and the rigidity of Aristotelianism which inhibited its further development and allowed it to be absorbed by Platonism. Overall, the text provides an overview of the intellectual and philosophical climate of the Roman Empire during this period. [introduction/conclusion]

In der Geschichte der Simplikios-Philologie spielen Frauen eine besondere Rolle. Aus der Feder der byzantinischen Prinzessin Theodora Palaiologina Rhaulaina (ca. 1240—1300)1 stammt eine der —wie sich zeigen wird — textkritisch relevantesten Handschriften des für die Erforschung der Vorsokratik, der Peripatetik wie auch des Neuplatonismus bekanntermaßen unschätzbaren Kommentars zur aristotelischen Physik des Simplikios. Der zwischen 1261 und 1282 datierende2 Codex Mosquensis Muz. 3649 mit den Büchern I—IV und dem Beginn von Buch V (desinit mutile3 803, 8 Diels4) ist die of- fensichtlich sehr gewissenhafte5 Abschrift jener Frau, die keinesfalls nur als Schreiberin hervorgetreten ist, sondern insbesondere auch als selbständige hagiographische Schriftstellerin, als tätige Patronin eines Scriptoriums und Buchilluminationsateliers, als Besitzerin einer wohl umfangreichen Bibliothek und nicht zuletzt als bedeutendes Mitglied eines Gelehrtenkreises, dem unter anderen auch Maximos Planudes, Gregorios von Zypern und Manuel Holobolos angehörten. Als sich auf Initiative und unter Leitung von Ilsetraut H a d o t die führenden Simplikios-Forscher unserer T a g e im Herbst 1985 in Paris zu ihrem ersten Fachkolloquium versammelten, durfte der Verfasser dieser Zeilen — obwohl kein Simplikianer — unter ihnen referieren, über ebenjenen Mosquensis von der H a n d der Rhaulaina. Ilsetraut H a d o t wußte, daß ich auf einer Bibliotheksreise des Jahres 1966 die Handschrift eingesehen hatte und sie aufgrund der Bewertung des „locus fenestratus" am Ende von Buch III p. 518 als neuen unabhängigen Textträger erkannt zu haben glaubte6. D a s Referat konnte zwar von der Klassifizierung des in der T a t unabhängigen Mosquensis ausgehen, mußte sich aber zur Klärung der stemmatischen Aporien, die beim Studium der Dielsschen Praefatio und des apparatus criticus zutage traten, auf die Situation der Handschrift Ε (Vorlagenwechsel sowie Eb und Eä als dislozierte Partien in Ε bzw. der Vorlage von E) und der Handschrift D (Duktusänderung und Vorlagenwechsel) konzentrieren und konnte darüber hinaus auf die interessante Rolle einer weiteren Moskauer Handschrift (Len) aufmerksam machen und Fingerzeige zu dem einen oder anderen jüngeren Manuskript geben. — Inzwischen habe ich noch einmal über den Codex F nachgedacht und nunmehr fast alle Simplikios-Handschriften im Film — soweit im Berliner Aristoteles-Archiv vorhanden7 — rasch eingese hen8. Im folgenden wage ich — der Veranstalterin des Kolloquiums und Editorin der Akten habe ich dabei für Ermunterung und Geduld zu danken —, meine ersten Eindrücke zu publizieren. Es sind lediglich vorläufige Ergebnisse, die durch systematische Untersuchungen verifiziert werden müßten; hierin ein Plädoyer für eine kodikologische Stemmatik. [introduction]

Simplicius' commentary on Aristotle's Categories is the first among three commentaries left by the renowned Neoplatonic philosopher. This commentary holds a significant place in the study of Aristotle's works, as it marks the beginning of the reading of Aristotle's oeuvre from a spiritual perspective. The prayer at the end of Simplicius' commentary highlights the transformative power of studying Aristotle's Categories, allowing the soul to ascend to higher knowledge and seek ultimate happiness. Simplicius' other commentaries, such as his work on Epictetus and De Caelo, similarly express the journey of spiritual conversion and progressive ascension to higher realities within the Neoplatonic spiritual framework. The Neoplatonic curriculum involved an ethical initiation, leading to the study of Aristotle's works and culminating in the study of Plato's Timaeus and Parmenides.

This commentary holds a significant place in the study of Aristotle's works, as it marks the beginning of the reading of Aristotle's oeuvre from a spiritual perspective. The prayer at the end of Simplicius' commentary highlights the transformative power of studying Aristotle's Categories, allowing the soul to ascend to higher knowledge and seek ultimate happiness. Simplicius' other commentaries, such as his work on Epictetus and De Caelo, similarly express the journey of spiritual conversion and progressive ascension to higher realities within the Neoplatonic spiritual framework. The Neoplatonic curriculum involved an ethical initiation, leading to the study of Aristotle's works and culminating in the study of Plato's Timaeus and Parmenides. Overall, Simplicius' exegesis of Aristotle's Categories reveals the profound spiritual significance and transformative potential of philosophical studies within the Neoplatonic tradition.

The main conclusions of this study are two: (a) Neither Ps.-Alex- 
ander  nor  Syrianus  had  access  to  Alexander’s  lost  commentary  on 
Metaph.  E-N.  (b)  For  his  commentary  on  books  M-N  Syrianus 
made use  of Ps .-Alexander’s  commentary, which he  mistook for the 
work of Alexander himself. [p. 232]

In  what follows I offer a bibliographical guide to the ancient commentators on Aristotle, 
outlining where one may find texts, translations, studies, and more detailed bibliographies 
containing further references.* It  is designed to supplement the  existing bibliography in: 
[l] R.  Sorabji, ed., Aristotle  Transformed: The Ancient Commentators and Their Influence 
(London: Duckworth, 1990), 485-524. 
The  focus  here  is  on  the  ancient  commentators, but  reference  will  also  be  made  to 
Byzantine commentators. For  a  list of  around 300 commentators on Aristotle - ancient, 
Byzantine,  Islamic,  medieval,  and  renaissance  - see  the  final  pages  of  [ 2 ]   Operum 
Aristotelis Stagiritae Philosophorum Omnium,  ed.  I Casaubon  (Lugduni,  apud 
Guillelmum Laemarium, 1590). This list is followed by  a detailed inventory of  individual 
commentaries  arranged  by  the  Aristotelian  text  upon  which  they  comment.  This  very 
useful  second list is reprinted in:  [3] Aristotelis  Opera Omnia quae  extant  Uno Volumine 
Comprehensa, ed. C. H.  Weise (Leipzig: Tauchnitz, 1843), 1013-18. Note also the more 
recent  list  of ancient  commentaries  by R.  Goulet  in  D P h A   1,437-41  (1993),  now 
supplemented by  M. Chase in DPhA Suppl., 113-21 (2003). [Introduction, p. 239]

 In Chapter 3, Hans Gottschalk surveys the commentators on Aristotle from the 
fi rst  century   bc   to  late  in  the  second  century   ad ,  and  some  of  their  Platonist  
opponents. He gives the most space to the fi rst of them, Andronicus, persuasively rguing that he worked in Athens without going to Rome, and telling something 
of Andronicus’  philosophical  comments  on Aristotle  and  of  his  editorial  work  
on Aristotle’s school writings (as opposed to his works then better known, but 
now  largely  lost,  for  publication  outside  the  school).  He  rightly  says  that  
Andronicus  presented Aristotle  as  a  system. As  I  indicated  in  commenting  on  
Chapter  1  above,  his  younger  contemporary  in  Athens,  Boethus,  stimulated  
enormous  reaction  from  later  commentators  by  his  detailed  and  idiosyncratic  
interpretation of Aristotle, fragments of which they recorded. So the description 
‘scholasticism’, insofar as it suggests to us something rather dry, is not a 
description we should now be likely to use, especially aft er the recent discovery 
of new fragments of Boethus. But  Aristotle Re-Interpreted  will include a 
contribution on some of Boethus’ achievement and further detail on the 
commentators aft er him is supplied in other recent works listed above in note 6. 
Th e only big matter of controversy concerns the two words ‘critical edition’ at the 
opening of Gottschalk’s chapter, which could be taken for granted in 1990. It was 
challenged  by  Jonathan  Barnes  in  1997.   9    A  critical  edition  is  produced  by  
comparing diff erent copies of the original in order to discover more closely what 
the  original  may  have  said.  Barnes  argued  powerfully  that  this  is  not  what  
Andronicus  did.  Indeed,  if  he  did  not  go  to  Rome  to  examine  the  manuscript  
there, it is even less likely that he did. One reaction was to think that this greatly 
reduced  the  importance  of  Andronicus.  But  a  contribution  in    Aristotle  Re-
Interpreted  will take up the other editorial activity including the presentation of 
Aristotle’s school writings as a system. It was far more valuable, according to this 
argument, to create a coherent canon of Aristotle’s voluminous school writings, 
by  joining  or  separating  pieces  and  arranging  them  in  a  coherent  order  for  
reading, than to seek the original wording in a critical edition. [Sorabji: Introduction to the Second Edition, p. xii]

Still more signifi cant is their profound infl uence, uncovered in some of the \r\nchapters below, on subsequent philosophy, Islamic and European.

Even those who know nothing else o f   Justinian know that he closed the Academy at 
Athens  in  a  . d  .   529—the  very  year  that  St  Benedict  had  founded  the  monastery  o f   
Monte  Cassino.1  For  those  who  like  schematic  boundaries  between  the  ancient  and 
medieval  worlds,  between  the  pagan  past  and  the  Christian  future,  here  is  a  truly 
symbolic date.The romantic sequel is hardly less familiar:2 the seven out-of-work Platonists who 
left  Athens  for  Persia,  which  under its  new  King  Chosroes  they  had  heard  closely 
resembled  the  ideal  state  their  master  had  written  of.  On  their  arrival,  alas,  they 
discovered  that  Chosroes,  while  amiable  enough  and  genuinely interested  in  philo­
sophy, was far from being the philosopher-king they had dreamed of. And his subjects 
were no less corrupt than the Romans. The disillusioned philosophers confessed their 
disappointment  to  the  king,  who  not  only  graciously  consented  to  their  immediate 
return, but even went so far as to make Justinian write into the peace treaty they were 
just then concluding (September 532) a safe conduct home for all seven and a guarantee 
that they would be allowed to live out their lives in Roman territory in peace as pagans.This much is well known.  But some details are unclear,  others unexplored. Several 
misconceptions prevail. A  number of relevant texts have never been properly exploited, 
some not even considered. What was Justinian’s motive? Did he give the last push to 
a  tottering  edifice,  or destroy  a  thriving  intellectual  centre?  Indeed,  did  he  actually 
succeed in destroying anything at all? What did  the philosophers do on their return? [Introduction, p. 7]

If I am now speaking about the life and works of Simplicius again aft er having 
devoted a chapter of my book  Le problème du néoplatonisme Alexandrin  to this 
subject eight years ago, it is because in the intervening period new research has

Here it is assembled for the fi rst time by drawing both on some \r\nof the classic articles translated into English or revised and on the very latest \r\nresearch. Some of the chapters will be making revisionary suggestions unfamiliar \r\neven to specialists in the fi eld. Th e philosophical interest of the commentators \r\nhas been illustrated elsewhere. 1 Th e aim here is not so much to do this again as \r\nto set out the background of the commentary tradition against which further \r\nphilosophical discussion and discussions of other kinds can take place. \r\n Th e importance of the commentators lies partly in their representing the \r\nthought and classroom teaching of the Aristotelian and Neoplatonist schools, \r\npartly in the panorama they provide of the 1100 years of Ancient Greek \r\nphilosophy, preserving as they do many original quotations from lost philosophical \r\nworks. Still more signifi cant is their profound infl uence, uncovered in some of the \r\nchapters below, on subsequent philosophy, Islamic and European. Th is was due \r\npartly to their preserving anti-Aristotelian material which helped to inspire \r\nmedieval and Renaissance science, but still more to their presenting an Aristotle \r\ntransformed in ways which happened to make him acceptable to the Christian \r\nChurch. It is not just Aristotle, but this Aristotle transformed and embedded in \r\nthe philosophy of the commentators, that lies behind the views of later thinkers.

Simplicius ’  commentary  on  the  Categories,  probably  written  about  538  
A.D.,1  seems  to  have  had  little  impact  on  the  Latin-speaking  world  
until March of  1266, when it was translated into Latin by William of  
Moerbeke   (c.  1215–c.  1286) [...]. Moerbeke’s translation of  Simplicius  
commentary on the Categories was used in the 13th century by Siger of  
Brabant , Henry of  Ghent , Giles of  Rome, and Godefroid  de Fontaine 
(part  of   whose  manuscript  is  now  the  ms.  latin  16080  of   the  Paris  
Bibliothèque  Nationale).  Duns  Scotus   refers  to  it  frequently  as  an  
authoritative work, and it is cited by Jean Quidort , Peter of  Auvergne , 
Jacques de Thérines , Durand de St. Pourçain , Thomas of  Strasbourg , 
Thomas Sutton , and James of  Viterbo . The work continued to be cited 
throughout the 14th century, by such authors as Siger of  Courtrai  and 
the anonymous author of  the ms. Erfurt, Amplon. F. 135. [pp. 9-11]

The various commentaries on Aristotle's Categories we have from this period did not simply elaborate a dialectical exercise for training students; rather, they provided their authors with an unparalleled opportunity to work through crucial philosophical problems, many of which remain with us today. As such, this unique commentary tradition is important not only in its own right, but also to the history and development of philosophy as a whole. The contributors to this volume take a fresh look at it, examining a wide range of medieval commentators, from Simplicius to John Wyclif, and discussing such issues as the compatibility of Platonism with Aristotelianism; the influence of Avicenna; the relationship between grammar, logic, and metaphysics; the number of the categories; the status of the categories as a science realism vs. nominalism; and the relationship between categories.","republication_of":null,"online_url":"","online_resources":"https:\/\/uni-koeln.sciebo.de\/s\/oEtfD1XJ4Rubslh","translation_of":null,"new_edition_of":null,"is_catalog":0,"in_bibliography":0,"is_inactive":0,"notes":null,"doi_url":null,"book":{"id":275,"pubplace":"Leiden","publisher":"Brill","series":"","volume":"","edition_no":"","valid_from":null,"valid_until":null}}},"article":null},"sort":["The Medieval Posterity of Simplicius\u2019 Commentary on the Categories: Thomas Aquinas and al-F\u0101r\u0101b\u012b"]}
