Eduard Zeller suggested2 that Eudemus’ Physics was an abridgement of the Aristotelian treatise, compiled by Eudemus for his own lectures when he left the Lyceum and set up his own school in Rhodes. We can not I think prove this; but it seems plausible enough. It is clear that Eudemus followed the sequence of Aristotle’s discussion closely; Simplicius used Eudemus’ order of treatment to argue that the sixth book of Aristotle’s Physics was rightly regarded as following on the fifth (Eud. fr. 98W). [Introduction, p. 107]

When Aristotle died, having chosen Theophrastus as his successor, Eudemus returned to Rhodes where it appears he founded his own school. His contributions to logic were significant: he took issue with Aristotle concerning the status of the existential \"is,\" and together with Theophrastus he made important contributions to hypothetical syllogistic and modal logic. He wrote at length on physics, largely following Aristotle, and took an interest in animal behavior. His histories of geometry, arithmetic, and astronomy were of great importance and are responsible for much of what we know of these subjects in earlier times.Volume 11 in the series Rutgers Studies in Classical Humanities is different in that it is composed entirely of articles that discuss Eudemus from a variety of viewpoints. Sixteen scholars representing seven nations have contributed essays to the volume. A special essay by Dimitri Gutas brings together for the first time the Arabic material relating to Eudemus.

n earlier work, Bernard R. Goldstein and the present author have intro- duced a procedural rule for historical inquiry, which requires that one take pains to establish the credibility of any citation of ancient thought by later writers in antiquity through a process of veriªcation. In this paper, I shall apply what I call the Rule of Ancient Citations to Simplicius’ interpretation of Aristotle’s remarks in Meta . 8, which is the primary point of departure for the modern understanding of Greek planetary theory. I ªrst sketch several lines of argument that lead me to conclude that Simplicius’ interpretation should not be accepted because it assumes a concern with planetary phenomena unknown to the Greeks before the late 2nd and early 1st centuries bc. Then, after showing that there is a fairly well deªned range of readings of Aris- totle’s remarks more in keeping with what we actually know of astronomy in the 5th and 4th centuries bc, I conclude that neither Aristotle’s report about the Eudoxan and Callippan accounts of the celestial motions nor Simplicius’ interpretation of this report is a good starting point for our understanding of early Greek planetary theory.

Much Ado About 'Nothing":μηδέν and το μη έόν in ParmenidesK.R. SandersIt is, to my knowledge, a universally accepted assumption among con-temporary commentators that μηδέν, 'nothing', and το μη έόν, 'what-is-not', function as synonyms in Parmenides' poem.1 In this paper, I focus primarily on the central role this supposed semantic equivalence playsin arguments supporting an emendation in line 12 of fragment B8. Despite this scholarly unanimity regarding the synonymy of these two Greek terms and the popularity of the emendation, I contend that we canmake the best sense of Parmenides' argument in this and the surround-ing lines precisely by retaining the manuscript reading and recognizingthe difference in meaning between 'nothing' and 'what-is-not'. This claim, of course, also has broader implications for the interpretation of Parmenides' poem generally.

Simplicius, On Epictetus’ Handbook 1–26, 2002

[Simplicius'] moral interpretation of Epictetus is preserved in the library of nations, as a classic book, most excellently adapted to direct the will, to purify the heart, and to confirm the understanding, by a just confidence in the nature both of God and man.' Edward Gibbon 'This book, written by a "pagan" philosopher, makes the most Christian impression conceivable. The betrayal of all reality through morality is here present in its fullest splendour - pitiful psychology, the philosopher is reduced to a country parson. And Plato is to blame for all of it! He remains Europe's greatest misfortune!' Fredrich Nietzsche Of these two rival reactions the favourable one was most common. Epictetus' Handbook on ethics was used in Christian monasteries, and Simplicius' commentary on it was widely available up to the nineteenth century. The commentary gives us a fascinating chance to see how a pagan Neoplatonist transformed Stoic ideas, adding Neoplatonist accounts of theology, theodicy, providence, free will and the problem of evil. This translation of the Commentary on the Handbook is published in two volumes. This is the first, covering chapters 1-26; the second covers chapters 27-53. [offical abstact]

The Enchiridion or Handbook of the first-century Ad Stoic Epictetus was used as an ethical treatise both in Christian monasteries and by the sixth-century pagan Neoplatonist Simplicius. Simplicius chose it for beginners, rather than Aristotle's Ethics, because it presupposed no knowledge of logic. We thus get a fascinating chance to see how a pagan Neoplatonist transformed Stoic ideas. The text was relevant to Simplicius because he too, like Epictetus, was teaching beginners how to take the first steps towards eradicating emotion, although he is unlike Epictetus in thinking that they should give up public life rather than acquiesce, if public office is denied them. Simplicius starts from a Platonic definition of the person as rational soul, not body, ignoring Epictetus' further whittling down of himself to just his will or policy decisions. He selects certain topics for special attention in chapters 1, 8, 27 and 31. Things are up to us, despite Fate. Our sufferings are not evil, but providential attempts to turn us from the body. Evil is found only in the human soul. But evil is parasitic (Proclus' term) on good. The gods exist, are provident, and cannot be bought off.With nearly all of this the Stoics would agree, but for quite different reasons, and their own distinctions and definitions are to a large extent ignored. This translation of the Handbook is published in two volumes. This is the second volume, covering chapters 27-53; the first covers chapters 1-26. [offical abstact]

Xenarchus, Alexander, and Simplicius on Simple Motions, Bodies and Magnitudes, 2002

Aristotle accounted for the fundamental dynamics of the cosmos in terms of the tendencies of the various elements to distinct types of natural motions, and (in the case of the sublunary elements) to rest in their natural places. In so doing, he introduced a fifth element, the ether, with a natural and unceasing tendency to revolve, as the matter for the heavenly bodies. This paper deals with some of the objections raised to this model, and to its conceptual underpinnings, raised by Xenarchus of Seleuceia, an unorthodox Peripatetic of the 1 st century BC, and of the attempts of later philosophers to rebut them. In so doing it casts light on a little-known, but historically important and interesting, episode in the development of physical dynamics. [Author's abstract]

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]

This text discusses a critical assessment of Wehrli's edition of Eudemus of Rhodes' fragments, focusing on their relevance to physics and Simplicius' commentary on Aristotle's Physics. The author argues that Wehrli's edition, while once standard, no longer meets current standards and necessitates a new one. Simplicius' role in preserving and interpreting ancient philosophers' doctrines and the significance of Eudemus' fragments are highlighted. The paper presents additional passages from Simplicius' commentary that were not included in Wehrli's edition, suggesting the need for a broader approach to studying fragments. The value of Eudemus' clarifications for later commentators is emphasized, leading to the conclusion that a reevaluation of Wehrli's method and form is necessary for future editors of the Eudemian fragments.

When Aristotle died, having chosen Theophrastus as his successor, Eudemus returned to Rhodes where it appears he founded his own school. His contributions to logic were significant: he took issue with Aristotle concerning the status of the existential \"is,\" and together with Theophrastus he made important contributions to hypothetical syllogistic and modal logic. He wrote at length on physics, largely following Aristotle, and took an interest in animal behavior. His histories of geometry, arithmetic, and astronomy were of great importance and are responsible for much of what we know of these subjects in earlier times.Volume 11 in the series Rutgers Studies in Classical Humanities is different in that it is composed entirely of articles that discuss Eudemus from a variety of viewpoints. Sixteen scholars representing seven nations have contributed essays to the volume. A special essay by Dimitri Gutas brings together for the first time the Arabic material relating to Eudemus.

In this essay, Frans A.J. de Haas explores the commentary tradition on Aristotle's Physics, focusing on the first chapter, which is considered pivotal for Aristotelian natural philosophy. The chapter sets the stage for Aristotle's principles of science and the method of scientific inquiry. However, the twenty-two lines of the chapter have not lived up to these high expectations, leading to a bewildering variety of interpretations in the commentary tradition. The essay aims to understand the development of the commentary tradition and the factors that influenced the various interpretations. De Haas presents a method of charting a commentator's philosophical environment to explain their modifications of Aristotle's doctrine. He examines the interpretation of Physics 1.1 by Themistius, an influential ancient commentator. De Haas identifies several factors that may explain Themistius' specific interpretation, such as the assumption of a deductive method in physics, the influence of Theophrastus' logical analysis, and Alexander's proposal of the coherence of all sciences. Themistius introduces the topic of universal concepts, which leads to discussions about the priority of universals in Aristotle's writings. The essay concludes that understanding the dynamics of the ancient commentary tradition allows us to recognize the influence of earlier interpretations in later commentators. This realization highlights the importance of carefully considering the original context and intentions of Aristotle's work to avoid misinterpretations in subsequent commentaries.

Thomas' Neoplatonic Histories: His following of Simplicius, 2002

Following Simplicius, Thomas set up the Platonic and Aristotelian philosophical viae as complementary oppositions each of which contributed to the truth. Thomas also followed Simplicius in discerning differences between the hermeneutic methods of the two great schools. He reproduced the history of philosophy of Simplicius as soon as he had his commentaries, agreed with many of his conciliating judgments, and used the same reconciling logical figures. He does not identify himself as a Peripatetic or as a Platonist. However, when he agrees that Aristotle’s way of reasoning, per viam motus, to the existence of separate substances is manifestior et certior, he is sitting in judgment with, not against, Simplicius. For both the sixth and the thirteenth century commentators, Plato and Aristotle are assimilated to each other in various ways, and the real possibility of any beginning except that from the sensible is excluded. Thomas’ hermeneutic is that of the Platonic tradition in late Antiquity – Thomas certainly thought that the truth was veiled under poetic and symbolic language and judged this to be essential for revealing the truth to humans. Consistently with this approach, in the exposition of the De Caelo, Aquinas goes so far with Simplicius as to find “something divine (fabula aliquid divinum continet)” in the myth that Atlas holds up the heavens.106 He would seem, thus, to be on his way to the reconciliation of religious as well as of philosophical traditions. If this should, in fact, be his intent, Thomas would be following Simplicius and his Neoplatonic predecessors in their deepest purposes. This Christian priest, friar, and saint would have placed himself with the “divine” Proclus among the successors of Plato. [Conclusion]

In  late  antiquity,  as  in  all  other  periods,  philosophy had  the  power  to 
change  a person’s  choice  of life  and  scale  of values.  The  ‘shakers’  of my 
title are people who  passed on  this sort of impact to others.  Philosophy, 
including  Platonist  philosophy,  also  addressed  the  intellectual’s  relation 
to  contemporary  society.  If that  society  was  incurably  misguided,  then 
the philosopher might have no option except to leave it. In late antiquity, 
some took this option, and they are my ‘movers’. Both the ‘shakers’ and the 
‘movers’ need to be understood in terms of the philosophy they professed, 
but  a sufficient  understanding  of their  actions  does  not  require  a deep 
analysis of their deepest thoughts. They are within a historian’s grasp, and 
so I will discuss individuals, their texts and contexts without a close reading 
of particular arguments. [Introduction, p. 19]

Much Ado About  'Nothing":μηδέν and το μη  έόν in ParmenidesK.R. SandersIt is, to my knowledge, a universally  accepted assumption among con-temporary commentators that μηδέν, 'nothing', and το μη  έόν, 'what-is-not',  function  as synonyms in Parmenides' poem.1 In this paper, I focus primarily  on the central  role this supposed semantic equivalence playsin  arguments  supporting  an  emendation  in  line  12  of  fragment  B8. Despite this scholarly unanimity regarding the synonymy of these two Greek terms and the popularity of the emendation, I contend that we canmake the best sense of Parmenides' argument in this and  the surround-ing lines precisely by retaining the manuscript reading and recognizingthe difference   in meaning between 'nothing' and 'what-is-not'. This claim, of  course, also  has  broader implications for  the  interpretation of Parmenides' poem generally.

Fortune, which Democritus so disparaged, had the last laugh on the 
laughing philosopher when through the fragmentation of his work it 
obscured a cardinal principle of the atomist system, necessity. Or would 
Democritus have called this the fatum libellorum? At any rate, the 
obscurity of this principle is immediately apparent, both in the ancient 
doxographical tradition and in modern scholarship. Without endorsing 
any of the views which variously identify necessity with some one 
characteristic of the atoms, their weight or aboriginal motion, or with the 
void they move in,x one can yet attempt to undo the identification of 
necessity with the famous "whirl" of the atoms2 and to see necessity as a 
single concept of which the causal operation in the system is uniform. 
Even Zeus was subject to necessity, and one might think of Democritus as 
refining and systematizing an ancient belief, in the same way that in 
making r6 'povev  physical he subscribed, says Theophrastus, to a "most 
antique opinion," to which all the poets and sages adhered... [p. 342]

A  few  years  before  her  death,  Frances  Yates  began  her  lecture  to  a 
meeting  of  the  Society  for  Renaissance  Studies  with  the  emotional 
announcement that knowledge of the Neo-Platonic and  Hermetic tra
ditions  had  been  suppressed.  While  some  took  her  seriously,  I  was 
sceptical.  Yet  there  is  textual  evidence  that  she  was  not  wrong  after 
all.  The suppression  began  almost immediately among those opposed 
to  the concordism1  of Ficino  or  Pico,  but  in this essay I will focus on 
reactions to this tradition  in the second half of the  sixteenth century. [p.317]

Neoplatonic Elements in the "de Anima" Commentaries, 1976

Most scholars who refer to the Greek commentators for help in the 
understanding of  difficult  Aristotelian texts  seem  to  expect 
straightforward scholarly treatment  of  their problems.2 Not 
infrequently they are disappointed and complain about the irrelevance 
of the  commentary they  read, or inveigh against the incompetence of 
the  commentators.3 Only  Alexander is  generally exempt  from such 
censure,  and  that  in  itself  is  significant.  For  he  is  the  only  major 
commentator whose work survives in  any  considerable quantity who 
wrote before Neoplatonism. Shortly after Alexander the kind of thought 
that  is  conveniently described by  this label came to  dominate Greek 
philosophy, and nearly all pagan philosophy and philosophical 
scholarship was  pursued  under  its influence,  if not  by  its active 
adherents. It  is the purpose of this paper to argue that  these facts are 
not  trivial  items  of  background interest,  but  are  fundamental to  a 
proper assessment of  the  later  commentators' opinions on  points  of 
Aristotelian scholarship. [p. 64]

Neoplatonic Interpretations of Aristotle on "Phantasia", 1977

The  ancient commentaries on Aristotle have for the most part 
remained in that strange kind of no-man's land between Classical 
and Medieval studies that even now holds so  many of the productions 
of  later  antiquity. On  the whole it would be  true  to  say  that  students 
of  Neoplatonism?for the commentators were usually Neoplatonists 
?prefer to occupy themselves with openly Neoplatonic writings. 
Modern Aristotelian scholars, on the other hand, tend to take very 
little account of the opinions of their ancient predecessors. In this 
way they differ from the Medie  vals, both Christian and Moslem: as 
is well known, Aquinas instigated the translation of many of these 
commentaries by his fellow Dominican, William of Moerbeke, while a 
century before, Averroes, the greatest of the Arabic commentators, 
had made ample use of at least the earlier Greek expositions. [Introduction, p. 242]

In this volume, the relationships between two of the most vital currents in Western thought are examined by a group of nineteen internationally known specialists in a variety of disciplines—classics, patristics, philosophy, theology, history of ideas, literature. The contributing scholars discuss Neoplatonic theories about God, creation, man, and salvation, in relation to the ways in which they were adopted, adapted, or rejected by major Christian thinkers of five periods: Patristic, Later Greek and Byzantine, Medieval, Renaissance, and Modern.

The studies collected in this book are all concerned with aspects of the Platonic tradition, either in its own internal development in the Hellenistic age and the period of the Roman Empire, or with the influence of Platonism, in one or other of its forms, on other spiritual traditions, especially that of Christianity.
