This contribution by Riccardo Chiaradonna aims to reconstruct the reading of Aristotle's Categories 5 by Alexander of Aphrodisias within the context of his exegesis of the treatise. Chiaradonna argues that Alexander was responding to an older particularist or extensionalist reading of the Categories, likely developed by Boethus of Sidon, and that Alexander's interpretation retains certain aspects of Boethus' exegesis while also integrating the ontology of the Categories with that of Aristotle's Metaphysics. Chiaradonna focuses on a well-known section of Simplicius' commentary on the Categories, in which Simplicius opposes three partial interpretations of the subject (ousia) of the Categories and defends a tripartite doctrine of the subject that he attributes to Boethus and Alexander. Chiaradonna concludes that Alexander's reading of the Categories is essentialist or intensionalist, and that it aims to integrate the semantics of the treatise with his ontology of immanent natures. He argues that Alexander viewed individuals as first substances by nature rather than only for us, and that his semantic reading of the Categories is closely tied to his essentialist ontology.

This text discusses the reception of Aristotelian theology by Michel of Ephesus and some Neoplatonic authors. Michel is known for his commentaries on Aristotle's works, particularly the Ethics, which he wrote at the request of Princess Anne Comnène. Michel's personal tone and spirituality in his commentaries, particularly his invocation to Christ at the end of his commentary on the Ethics, may have been influenced by his teacher, Jean Italos, who was condemned for heresy in 1082 for accepting the Platonic Model of Ideas as real. Michel's praise of his teacher revolves around the Aristotelian concept of God as pure intellection, intelligible by rational souls, and the possibility for humans to participate in this Intellection.

This article explores the problem of how perceptibility can arise in a Platonic universe where causes are always immaterial. Dualistic accounts that posit irreducible differences between the res extensa and the res cogitans fail to explain the existence of the material world, which the Neoplatonists endorse as a monistic system where every possible part of the universe is ultimately produced by the First Principle. Proclus provides a subtle answer to this problem by arguing that perceptibility is not something matter has out of itself, but is the effect of a gift of the Demiurge. The ten gifts of the Demiurge are given in the third book of Proclus' Commentary on the Timaeus, with perceptibility being the first gift that determines the lower part of the cosmos, i.e., the corporeal realm. This article argues that perceptibility is not the effect of quantity as such but of the presence of qualities in the bulk that moulds it into the four primordial elements, and it ultimately brings the sensible realm back to intelligible causes.

This text explores the place of Physics in the history of philosophy, specifically its role within the philosophical tradition and its relationship to preceding thinkers. The author discusses how Simplicius classifies Physics systematically and places it within the historical context of philosophical inquiries into nature, aiming to situate Aristotle in relation to his predecessors. Simplicius follows two models, Aristotle's Metaphysics Book Α and Proclus' Commentary on Timaeus, to develop his perspective on the history of philosophy. Aristotle traces the successive discovery of principles and causes in natural philosophy, highlighting the significance of material principles and introducing the concept of a cause in relation to the eternal motion. Proclus, on the other hand, presents a systematic history of philosophy based on the study of types of causes, distinguishing three stages of nature philosophy. The first stage includes pre-Platonic philosophers who focused on material causes, the second involves post-Platonic philosophers who considered both material and formal causes, and the third features Plato, who introduced transcendent causes like the Intellect, Ideas, and the Good. Proclus considers Plato as the culmination of this historical development, surpassing the contributions of Aristotle. Simplicius agrees with the three-stage classification, with Plato as the third moment. However, he sees Aristotle's work as more rigorous and precise in examining causes, particularly in discussing material and formal causes and the significance of the first mover in Physics VIII. Simplicius considers Plato's contributions more principled, while Aristotle's work represents a more scientific approach to physics. In summary, the text explores the historical development of philosophical inquiry into nature, emphasizing Plato's and Aristotle's distinct contributions and perspectives on the study of causes and principles in the natural world.

Aristotle traces the successive discovery of principles and causes in natural philosophy, highlighting the significance of material principles and introducing the concept of a cause in relation to the eternal motion. Proclus, on the other hand, presents a systematic history of philosophy based on the study of types of causes, distinguishing three stages of nature philosophy. The first stage includes pre-Platonic philosophers who focused on material causes, the second involves post-Platonic philosophers who considered both material and formal causes, and the third features Plato, who introduced transcendent causes like the Intellect, Ideas, and the Good. Proclus considers Plato as the culmination of this historical development, surpassing the contributions of Aristotle. Simplicius agrees with the three-stage classification, with Plato as the third moment. However, he sees Aristotle's work as more rigorous and precise in examining causes, particularly in discussing material and formal causes and the significance of the first mover in Physics VIII. Simplicius considers Plato's contributions more principled, while Aristotle's work represents a more scientific approach to physics. In summary, the text explores the historical development of philosophical inquiry into nature, emphasizing Plato's and Aristotle's distinct contributions and perspectives on the study of causes and principles in the natural world.

The Aristotelian commentaries of Simplicius on the works "On the Heavens" and "Physics" would have been significantly different without the access to the commentaries of Alexander of Aphrodisias. Simplicius heavily relied on Alexander's explanations to resolve several difficulties in Aristotle's text, except in cases where Aristotle criticizes Plato. Simplicius suggests that Alexander, being a member of the Peripatetic school, may have hidden the true purpose of Aristotle's criticisms of Plato. Simplicius argues that Aristotle's critiques of Plato were made for pedagogical reasons, to protect students from misinterpreting difficult philosophical doctrines. Simplicius also criticizes Alexander's literal interpretation of Aristotle, particularly concerning the question of whether the universe has an efficient cause. The neo-Platonic system of thought, shared by Simplicius and Ammonius, aimed to preserve the Greek belief in the eternity of the universe but did so by different means than the pure Peripatetic philosophy of Alexander.

Robbert van den Berg in Chapter 13 below fi nds a rather cursory attempt by Ammonius to restore harmony between himself and Proclus on whether Aristotle recognises any names as natural, aft er having said in the fi rst two chapters of On Interpretation that spoken sounds are symbols and signs which signify by convention what is in our minds. Proclus had given an elaborate theological theory of a divine name- giver providing natural names which matched Ideas, not in their sound but in their meaning, and of expert human name- givers possessing only principles ( logoi ) derived from Ideas and projecting the logoi into their imaginations to get a natural representation. In the case of naming the gods, the result could be like the statues which accurately represent gods and (in a theory of statues closer to Iamblichus than to Porphyry as described above) receive divine illumination. Ammonius does the minimum to support his teacher’s divergence from Aristotle.

Proclus had given an elaborate theological theory of a divine name- giver providing natural names which matched Ideas, not in their sound but in their meaning, and of expert human name- givers possessing only principles ( logoi ) derived from Ideas and projecting the logoi into their imaginations to get a natural representation. In the case of naming the gods, the result could be like the statues which accurately represent gods and (in a theory of statues closer to Iamblichus than to Porphyry as described above) receive divine illumination. Ammonius does the minimum to support his teacher\u2019s divergence from Aristotle.

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. Overall, Simplicius' exegesis of Aristotle's Categories reveals the profound spiritual significance and transformative potential of philosophical studies within the Neoplatonic tradition.

This contribution by Riccardo Chiaradonna aims to reconstruct the reading of Aristotle's Categories 5 by Alexander of Aphrodisias within the context of his exegesis of the treatise. Chiaradonna argues that Alexander was responding to an older particularist or extensionalist reading of the Categories, likely developed by Boethus of Sidon, and that Alexander's interpretation retains certain aspects of Boethus' exegesis while also integrating the ontology of the Categories with that of Aristotle's Metaphysics. Chiaradonna focuses on a well-known section of Simplicius' commentary on the Categories, in which Simplicius opposes three partial interpretations of the subject (ousia) of the Categories and defends a tripartite doctrine of the subject that he attributes to Boethus and Alexander. Chiaradonna concludes that Alexander's reading of the Categories is essentialist or intensionalist, and that it aims to integrate the semantics of the treatise with his ontology of immanent natures. He argues that Alexander viewed individuals as first substances by nature rather than only for us, and that his semantic reading of the Categories is closely tied to his essentialist ontology.

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 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]

The attempt to conceptualise Aristotle’s authority and to adapt it to a Platonist perspective is the framework within which the well-known Neoplatonist harmonisation of Plato and Aristotle must be set. This does not imply, however, that after Porphyry one must envisage a flat and homogeneous scenario: rather, the specific issue of how to appropriate Aristotle’s doctrine and, consequently, of how to square Plato’s and Aristotle’s authority, becomes crucial in itself in later Neoplatonism, as Saskia Aerts shows (Chapter ). As a matter of fact, the project of harmonising Aristotle and Plato and of regarding them both as authorities – albeit to different extents – also implies dealing with all those texts and doctrines which seem to sharply contradict one another, and this requires the production of exegetical strategies and ways to balance them. This clearly emerges from Hermias’ and Simplicius’ treatment of the doctrine of the self-moving soul, a core Platonic doctrine which was severely criticised by Aristotle. Aerts shows to what extent the commitment to the joint authority of both Plato and Aristotle can lead Platonists to exegetical twists and extreme harmonising strategies: moving along the broad lines of the Middle Platonist opening to several authoritative figures, by focusing on Aristotle’s role and elevating him to a very high status these authors had to produce a new ideological framework for the management of the issue of multiple authorities.

Aerts shows to what extent the commitment to the joint authority of both Plato and Aristotle can lead Platonists to exegetical twists and extreme harmonising strategies: moving along the broad lines of the Middle Platonist opening to several authoritative figures, by focusing on Aristotle\u2019s role and elevating him to a very high status these authors had to produce a new ideological framework for the management of the issue of multiple authorities.

From Xenocrates to Proclus, from the sceptical shift to the re-establishment of dogmatism, from the Mosaic of the Philosophers to the Neoplatonist Commentaries, the construction of authority emerges as a way of access to the core of the Platonist tradition.

The classification of physical theories by the number of principles 
involved goes back to Aristotle, Physics  1.2; in a less formal way to 
Plato, Sophist 242cd; and perhaps even further to the period of the 
Sophists.1 It is still echoed in modem text-books on the Presocratics. 
What is perhaps less familiar is that, naturally enough, this approach 
was not in antiquity confined to the Presocratics. The present paper is 
concerned with ancient attempts to apply such an analysis to one no­
table successor of the Presocratics, namely Plato. It is greatly indebted 
to the work of scholars expert in the field, notably John Dillon and 
Harold Tarrant; but I hope that it may present familiar material in a new 
perspective,  and, even if its main conclusion is highly speculative, 
stimulate further thought and debate on a period of the history of philosophy which, with some notable exceptions, has been too little studied 
as yet in English-speaking countries at least. [pp. 67 f.]

Through his long struggle with the fragments of Posidonius, Kidd has done more than any other scholar of ancient philosophy to dispel the myth of \"Pan-Posidonianism.\" He has presented a clearer picture of the Posidonius to whom we may have access. The Passionate Intellect is both a Festschrift offered to Professor Kidd and an important collection of essays on the transformation of classical traditions.\r\n\r\nThe bulk of this volume is built around the theme of Kidd's own inaugural lecture at St. Andrews, \"The Passionate Intellect.\" Many of the contributions follow this theme through by examining how individual people and texts influenced the direction of various traditions. The chapters cover the whole of the classical and late antique periods, including the main genres of classical literature and history, and the gradual emergence of Christian literature and themes in late antiquity.\r\n\r\nMany of the papers naturally concentrate on ancient philosophy and its legacy. Others deal with ancient literary theory, history, poetry, and drama. Most of the papers deal with their subjects at some length and are significant contributions in their own right. The contributors to this collection include key figures hi contemporary classical scholarship, including: C. Carey (London); C. J. Classen (Gottingen); J. Dillon (Dublin); K. J. Dover (St. Andrews); W. W. Fortenbaugh (Rutgers); H. M. Hine (St. Andrews); J. Mansfeld (Utrecht); R. Janko and R. Sharpies (London); and J. S. Richardson (Edinburgh). This book will be invaluable to philosophers, classicists, and cultural historians.

Das Prinzip der Harmonisierung verschiedener Traditionen in den neuplatonischen Kommentaren zu Platon und Aristoteles ist ein entscheidender Aspekt für das Verständnis der in der Spätantike und im Mittelalter entwickelten Philosophie. Philosophische Kommentare waren in dieser Zeit die vorherrschende Form der philosophischen Produktion, die jedoch ein gewisses Maß an Fachwissen voraussetzt. Die jüngste Anerkennung der Bedeutung der antiken Kommentare wurde durch das von Richard Sorabji initiierte Projekt, sie ins Englische zu übersetzen, angeregt. Das Prinzip der Harmonisierung ist der Schlüssel zum Verständnis der neuplatonischen Kommentare und des Grundes, warum sie verwendet wurden, um ihre Philosophie auszudrücken. Perkams stell die Bedeutung der Harmonisierung im Neuplatonismus und demonstriert ihre Auswirkungen anhand einiger Passagen aus neuplatonischen Kommentaren zu Aristoteles' De anima. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die Harmonisierung sich aber als ein fruchtbarer philosophischer Ansatz erwiesen hat, der wesentlich zur Entwicklung des philosophischen Wissens beigetragen hat.
