Heraclides of Pontus hailed from the shores of the Black Sea. He studied with Aristotle in Plato's Academy, and became a respected member of that school. During Plato's third trip to Sicily, Heraclides served as head of the Academy and was almost elected its head on the death of Speusippus.Heraclides' interests were diverse. He wrote on the movements of the planets and the basic matter of the universe. He adopted a materialistic theory of soul, which he considered immortal and subject to reincarnation. He discussed pleasure, and like Aristotle, he commented on the Homeric poems. In addition, he concerned himself with religion, music and medical issues. None of Heraclides' works have survived intact, but in antiquity his dialogues were much admired and often pillaged for sententiae and the like.The contributions presented here comment on Heraclides' life and thought. They include La Tradizione Papirologica di Eraclide Pontico by Tiziano Dorandi, Heraclides' Intellectual Context by Jorgen Mejer, and Heraclides of Pontus and the Philosophical Dialogue by Matthew Fox. There is also discussion of Heraclides' understanding of pleasure and of the human soul: Heraclides on Pleasure by Eckart Schutrumpf and Heraclides on the Soul and Its Ancient Readers by Inna Kupreeva. In addition, there are essays that address Heraclides' physics and astronomical theories: Unjointed Masses: A Note on Heraclides Physical Theory by Robert W. Sharples; Heliocentrism in or out of Heraclides by Paul T. Keyser, The Reception of Heraclides' Theory of the Rotation of the Earth from Posidonius to Simplicius: Texts, Contexts and Continuities by Robert B. Todd and Alan C. Bowen, and Heraclides of Pontus on the Motions of Venus and Mercury by Alan C. Bowen and Robert B. Todd. Finally, there are essays that view Heraclides from the stand point of ancient medicine, literary criticism and musical theory: Heraclides on Diseases and on the Woman Who Did Not Breathe by [author's abstract]

Despite numerous studies conducted for a long time on Plotinus' treatise 51, the formula expressing the radical opposition of good and evil remains partly a mystery. Plotinus argues against Aristotle's idea that substances do not have opposites, and claims that universal substance can have a contrary, namely non-substance and the nature of evil. Plotinus' dualism allows for organized counterattacks while preserving the supremacy of good, with evil existing as an enclave within being, limited by the boundaries of good. The image of a prisoner acting but limited by the chains that surround him from the outside is used to illustrate this idea. [introduction/conclusion]

The renaissance of dogmatic Platonism and the revival of Aristotelian school treatises are characteristic features of philosophy in the 1st century BCE. Eudorus of Alexandria played an important role in both these processes, being central to constructing Pythagorean Platonism and its interaction with Aristotelianism. Eudorus had a deep knowledge of Aristotelian school treatises, including authoring a work on Aristotle's Categories. The study focuses on this part of his work, as the Categories were at the center of the Aristotelian renaissance in the first century. Eudorus' program of constructing a Platonic-Pythagorean system capable of replacing Hellenistic philosophies is visible in his work, as well as in other Pythagorean apocrypha. The author discusses the dominant position of Categories in the early history of post-Hellenistic Aristotelianism and the influence of Eudorus on the interpretation of Categories in the first century.

Commenting on the end of Aristotle's On the Heavens Book 3, Simplicius examines Aristotle's criticisms of Plato's theory of elemental chemistry in the Timaeus. Plato makes the characteristics of the four elements depend on the shapes of component corpuscles and ultimately on the arrangement of the triangles which compose them. Simplicius preserves and criticizes the contributions made to the debate in lost works by two other major commentators, Alexander the Aristotelian, and Proclus the Platonist. In Book 4, Simplicius identifies fifteen objections by Aristotle to Plato's views on weight in the four elements. He finishes Book 4 by elaborating Aristotle's criticisms of Democritus' theory of weight in the atoms, including Democritus' suggestions about the influence of atomic shape on certain atomic motions. This volume includes an English translation of Simplicius' commentary, a detailed introduction, extensive commentary notes and a bibliography.

The subject of Aristotle's On the Heavens, Books 3-4, is the four elements of earth, air, fire and water, which exist below the heavens. Book 3, in chapters 1 to 7, frequently criticizes the Presocratic philosophers. Because of this, Simplicius' commentary is one of our main sources of quotations of the Presocratics. Ian Mueller's translation of this commentary gains added importance by enabling us to see the context which guided Simplicius' selection of Presocratic texts to quote. Simplicius also criticizes the lost commentary of the leading Aristotelian commentator, Alexander, and thereby gives us important information about that work. The English translation in this volume is accompanied by a detailed introduction, extensive commentary notes and a bibliography. [official abstract]

The study of the ancient commentators has developed considerably over the past few decades, fueled by recent translations of their often daunting writings. This book offers the only concise, accessible general introduction currently available to the writings of the late ancient commentators on Aristotle and, to a lesser extent, Plato. Miira Tuominen provides a historical overview followed by a series of thematic chapters on epistemology, science and logic, physics, psychology, metaphysics, and ethics. In particular, she focuses on the writings of Alexander of Aphrodisias, Themistius, Porphyry, Proclus, Philoponus, and Simplicius. Until recently, the late ancient commentators have been understood mainly as sources of information concerning the masters upon whose works they comment. This book offers new insights into their way of doing philosophy in their own right. [author's abstract]

The paper examines Simplicius's doctrine of propensities (epitedeioteis ) in his commen- tary on Aristotles Categories and follows its application by the late thirteenth century theologian and philosopher James of Viterbo to problems relating to the causes of volition, intellection and natural change. Although he uses Aristotelian terminology and means his doctrine to conflict minimally with those of Aristode, James s doctrine of propensities really constitutes an attempt to provide a technically rigorous dressing to his Augustinián and Boethian convictions. Central to Jamess procedure is his rejection, following Henry of Ghent, of the principle that "everything that is moved is moved by another". James uses Simplicius' doctrine of propensities as a means of extending the rejection of that principle, which Henry had limited to the case of the will, to cognitive operations and natural change. The result is a theory of cognition and volition that sees the soul as the principal cause of its own acts, and a theory of natural change that minimizes the causal impact of external agents.

Der vorliegende Text behandelt einige Corollarien von Simplicius in seinem Kommentar zu Aristoteles' Physik, wobei er sich insbesondere mit Philoponus' Einwänden auseinandersetzt. Die Diskussion dreht sich um die Definition der Bewegung bei Aristoteles und die Frage nach ewigen und begrenzten Bewegungen. Philoponus hinterfragt, wie begrenzte Bewegung als Folge einer ewigen Bewegung angesehen werden kann, da die Potenz immer bestehe und eine Bedingung für die Bewegung sei. Simplicius argumentiert, dass die Potenz und Bewegung untrennbar verbunden sind und dass es keine ewige Bewegung geben könne. Er erläutert Aristoteles' Position und verteidigt sie gegen Philoponus' Einwände. Die Diskussion umfasst Themen wie die Rolle der Potenz in der Bewegung, die Anwendung der Begriffsdefinition auf verschiedene Sachverhalte und die Frage nach einem obersten Beweger. Am Ende wird betont, dass selbst bei einer Ablehnung des Aristotelischen Axioms von der Bewegung die Annahme eines ewigen obersten Bewegers bestehen bleibt. [introduction]

Francesco Patrizi da Chersos Discussiones peripateticae (1581) are one of the most com- prehensive analyses of the whole of Aristotelian philosophy to be published before Werner Jaeger s Aristoteles . The main thrust of the argument in the Discussiones is that whatever Aristotle had said that was true was not new, and that whatever he had said that was new was not true. The article shows how Patrizi proves this with respect to the Organon , and deals with the implications for the history of ancient philosophy in general implied by his stance. [Author's abstract]

Commentary  was  an  important  vehicle  for  philosophical  debate  in late  antiquity.  Its  antecedents  lie in  the rise  of rational  argumentation,  polemical rivalry, literacy,  and the canonization of texts. This essay aims to give a historical and typological outline of philosophical exegesis in antiquity, from the earliest alle­gorizing readings  of Homer to  the  full-blown “running commentary” in the  Pla­tonic tradition (fourth to sixth centuries CE). Running commentaries are mostly on authoritative thinkers such as Plato and Aristotle. Yet they are never mere scholarly enterprises but, rather,  springboards for syncretistic clarification, elaboration,  and creative interpretation. Two case studies (Galen 129-219 CE, Simplicius ca. 530 CE) will illustrate the range of exegetical tools available at the end of a long tradition in medical science and in reading Aristotle through Neoplatonic eyes, respectively.

Der  Exkurs  über  Chosroes,  Uranius  und  die  Philosophengesandtschaft  der 
athenischen  Neuplatoniker  im  Jahr  532  gestattet  einen  Einblick  in  die 
kulturellen  Kontakte  zwischen  Rom  und  Persien  im  6.  Jahrhundert.  Er  zeigt, 
daß es  im Römischen  Reich eine  weitverbreitete Kenntnis über die Renaissance 
der  Sasaniden  unter  Chosroes  gab,  auch  wenn  das  Bild  Persiens  zum  Teil 
idealisiert  wurde.  Die  philosophische  Bildung  des  Chosroes  rühmten  sowohl 
Perser  als  auch  Römer.  Der  Exkurs  demonstriert  das  breite  Interesse  an  der 
anderen  Kultur,  das  sich  besonders  bei  den  Heiden  fand.  Schließlich  ver­
deutlicht  er,  daß  sich  Persien  im  6.  Jahrhundert  zunehmend  zum  Fluchtpunkt 
für Heiden und andere Verfolgte aus dem Römischen Reich entwickelte. [conclusion, p. 156]

Unter Hinweis auf Cicero, Lucullus ( =  Academica priom II)  118 und 123, 
Tusculanae disputationes 1 18 ff.  und De nutum deorum I  25  ff.  hat Hermann 
Dieis diese Frage bekanntlich bejaht.1 Die wichtigste Stelle, auf die ich mich 
aus  mehreren  Gründen beschränke,2 ist dabei der Passus über die Prinzipien 
Luc.  118, wo der Dissens (dissensio, Luc.  117) der Philosophen von Thaies bis 
zu  Platon  und  den  Pythagoreern  kritisiert  wird.  Diels  hat  hier  ganz  auf­
fallend argumentiert.  Zum  einen  hat er, teilweise zu  Recht, hingewiesen auf 
Übereinstimmungen  zwischen  Luc.  118  und  den  entsprechenden 
Theophrastfragmenten  bzw.  Paraphrasen in Simplikios’ Kommentar zur ari­
stotelischen Physik,  die Usener und  er den Phys.  op.  zugewiesen  haben.3 Als 
nächstes  aber  hat  er Luc.  119-121  über die  stoische  Theorie  der Vorsehung 
(SVFI I 92 u. 1161) und über Aristoteles’ {Dephilos.  fr. 20 Ross) und Stratons 
(fr.  32  Wehrli)  entgegengesetzte  Auffassungen  ausgeklammert,  weil  dieses 
Stück  nicht  auf Theophrast  zurückgeführt  werden  könne.  Aus  den  nach­
folgenden  Paragraphen,  die  über  verschiedene  Ansichten  von  den 
Himmelskörpern  und  der  Erde  referieren,  hat  er  schliesslich  123  “Hiketas 
von  Syrakus,  wie  Theophrast  sagt”  {Hicetas  Syracosius,  ut ait Theophrastus 
. . . )   usw.  wieder  als  Beweis  dafür  angezogen,  dass  die  doxographische 
Übersicht zur Astronomie  aus  den  Phys.  op.  stamme.  In  der Nachfolge  Kri- 
sches  hatte  schliesslich  schon  Diels  zu  Recht  bemerkt,  dass  Ciceros 
unmittelbare Quelle ein Akademiker, wohl ein Karneadesschüler, sein müsse. 
Das Textstück über Hiketas (auch abgedruckt Vorsokr.  51.1) hat er als Phys. op. 
fr.  18  aufgenommen  {DG  492-3).  Es  ist  dies  der  einzige  Cicerotext  in  der 
betreffenden  Dielsschen Sammlung. [Introduction, p. 133]

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)

This volume, dedicated to the scholar Leendert G. Westerink, comprises 16 articles across two main areas of his research interests: Neo-Platonic and Byzantine studies. The six Neo-Platonic articles explore subjects such as manuscript histories, philosophical debates, and influences of figures like Porphyry, Iamblichus, and Proclus. Notably, Father Saffrey investigates an anonymous commentary on Parmenides, while other authors delve into Neo-Platonic mathematics, hymns, and commentaries on Aristotle’s discussions of reason.

The ten Byzantine studies articles cover a diverse range of historical and cultural insights. Topics include Byzantine letter-writing practices, with George Dennis highlighting humor in personal correspondence, and Cyril Mango examining the collapse of St. Sophia. Further articles focus on figures such as Psellus, Patriarch Cosmas, and fourteenth-century scholar Georgios Karbones, alongside explorations of political and religious tensions in the Ionian Islands under various European rulers.

Westerink, comprises 16 articles across two main areas of his research interests: Neo-Platonic and Byzantine studies. The six Neo-Platonic articles explore subjects such as manuscript histories, philosophical debates, and influences of figures like Porphyry, Iamblichus, and Proclus. Notably, Father Saffrey investigates an anonymous commentary on Parmenides, while other authors delve into Neo-Platonic mathematics, hymns, and commentaries on Aristotle\u2019s discussions of reason.\r\n\r\nThe ten Byzantine studies articles cover a diverse range of historical and cultural insights. Topics include Byzantine letter-writing practices, with George Dennis highlighting humor in personal correspondence, and Cyril Mango examining the collapse of St. Sophia. Further articles focus on figures such as Psellus, Patriarch Cosmas, and fourteenth-century scholar Georgios Karbones, alongside explorations of political and religious tensions in the Ionian Islands under various European rulers.

In this article, the author discusses the impact of Plotinus, a philosopher of the late ancient period, on the development of philosophical thought, including the creation of falsafa and its influence on philosophy in the Middle Ages. D'Ancona Costa explores Plotinus' Platonism and his incorporation of the doctrines of other philosophers, especially Aristotle, into his teachings. She examines Plotinus' key doctrines, including his understanding of soul, intelligible reality, and the Forms, and how they influenced the development of falsafa. The article also discusses the Neoplatonic model of philosophy as a systematic discipline, covering topics from logic to theology, and how it impacted the study of philosophy in the Middle Ages. Ultimately, the article argues that an understanding of the roots of falsafa in the philosophical thought of Late Antiquity is essential for a proper understanding of the development of philosophy.

Inspired by Greek philosophical works and the indigenous ideas of Islamic theology, Arabic philosophers from the ninth century onwards put forward ideas of great philosophical and historical importance. This collection of essays, by some of the leading scholars in Arabic philosophy, provides an introduction to the field by way of chapters devoted to individual thinkers (such as al-Farabi, Avicenna and Averroes) or groups, especially during the 'classical' period from the ninth to the twelfth centuries. It also includes chapters on areas of philosophical inquiry across the tradition, such as ethics and metaphysics. Finally, it includes chapters on later Islamic thought, and on the connections between Arabic philosophy and Greek, Jewish, and Latin philosophy. The volume also includes a useful bibliography and a chronology of the most important Arabic thinkers.
