| One of the arguments in Aristotle's On the Heavens propounds that the world neither came to be nor will perish. This volume contains the pagan Neoplatonist Simplicius of Cilicia's commentary on the first part of this this important work. The commentary is notable and unusual because Simplicius includes in his discussion lengthy representations of the Christian John Philoponus' criticisms of Aristotle along with his own, frequently sarcastic, responses. This is the first complete translation into a modern language of Simplicius' commentary, and is accompanied by a detailed introduction, extensive explanatory notes and a bibliography.

| 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] |

| Während Aristoteles’ De anima Seele als Lebensprinzip des körperlichen Wesens definiert, ist sie für die neuplatonischen Kommentatoren dieser Schrift eine geistige, vom Körper trennbare Größe, die sich auf sich selbst zurückwenden kann. Die Studie untersucht, wie die Ausleger Johannes Philoponos, Priskian von Lydien (Pseudo-Simplikios) und Stephanos von Alexandrien (Pseudo-Philoponos) mit dieser Problematik umgingen. In einem ersten Teil werden die philosophischen Konzeptionen der einzelnen Kommentare je für sich dargestellt und historisch eingeordnet. Deren Wert für die De anima-Interpretation wird ebenso diskutiert wie die Identität ihrer Autoren und das Verhältnis des Philoponos zu seinem Lehrer Ammonios. Der zweite Teil ist die erste philosophische Rekonstruktion von Priskians Konzeption des Selbstbezugs der Seele, die als detaillierteste antike Darstellung des menschlichen Selbstbewusstseins gelten kann. Plotins Überlegungen zur Selbsterkenntnis des Geistes werden so auf die menschliche Person übertragen, dass diese sich konstituiert, indem sie um die Wiedergewinnung ihrer ursprünglichen Identität als geistiges Wesen ringt. Um dies zu erläutern unterscheidet Priskian mehrere Formen des Selbstbezugs und setzt sie in Beziehung zueinander. [authors abstract] |

Plotins \u00dcberlegungen zur Selbsterkenntnis des Geistes werden so auf die menschliche Person \u00fcbertragen, dass diese sich konstituiert, indem sie um die Wiedergewinnung ihrer urspr\u00fcnglichen Identit\u00e4t als geistiges Wesen ringt. Um dies zu erl\u00e4utern unterscheidet Priskian mehrere Formen des Selbstbezugs und setzt sie in Beziehung zueinander.

| Depuis la première édition de ce livre, Diogène d'Apollonie, un des derniers "physiciens" présocratiques, longtemps dévalorisé par la réputation d' "éclectique" que H. Diels avait attachée à son nom dans un article de 1881, a suscité un regain d'intérêt. Cette seconde édition d'un ouvrage qui reste à ce jour le seul commentaire exhaustif des fragments et des témoignages de Diogène, a été revue et corrigée, mais elle prend aussi en compte, dans une série d'ajouts marqués comme tels, les travaux parus au cours des vint-cinq années écoulées. Le livre retrace l'histoire de la transmission des fragments de Diogène, analyse les positions de la critique moderne depuis l'article séminal de F. Schleiermacher (1811), et offre, pour chacun des douze fragments et des quelques trente-six témoignages, dont un nouveau classement est proposé, une analyse visant à reconstruire la logique de l'original perdu. Quatre des Notes additionnelles abordent des problèmes spécifiques, qui requéraient un traitement séparé. Une cinquième, en anglais, offre une présentation synthétique de l'interprétation ici défendue, qui situe l'importance de Diogène dans son rapport à Anaxagore et à sa doctrine de l' "intellect".

| Cet ouvrage s'inscrit dans la série des travaux que le Centre de Recherche Philosophique de l'Université de Lille III consacre à l'étude des cosmologies grecques. Après le système classique d'Empédocle et la réflexion critique d'Epicure à l'époque hellénistique, on s'intéresse ici à un penseur charnière, le dernier représentant de l' "ancienne physique".La notoriété de Diogène d'Apollonie est faible, au-delà du cercle restreint des spécialistes du Ve siècle grec. Ce tard venu n'a pas le renom d'Anaximandre ou d'Empédocle, ni celui de Démocrite, dont il est contemporain. Et pourtant, sa pensée n'est pas seulement l'ultime avatar d'une lignée dont il serait au fond indigne. Elle représente au contraire une forme d'achèvement, offrant une solution possible, dans le cadre du paradigme cosmologique hérité, au problème, laissé ouvert par le système d'Anaxagore, du mode d'action de "l'intellect" (νούς) dans le monde. La pertinence et la spécificité de la démarche, qui induit une doctrine de l'immanence, ressortent clairement quand on la confronte avec la célèbre critique d'Anaxagore menée par Socrate au nom de la téléologie dans le Phédon de Platon, et qui signe l'arrêt de mort de la spéculation présocratique.

Forms and Concepts is the first comprehensive study of the central role of concepts and concept acquisition in the Platonic tradition. It sets up a stimulating dialogue between Plato’s innatist approach and Aristotle’s much more empirical response. The primary aim is to analyze and assess the strategies with which Platonists responded to Aristotle’s (and Alexander of Aphrodisias’) rival theory. The monograph culminates in a careful reconstruction of the elaborate attempt undertaken by the Neoplatonist Proclus (6th century AD) to devise a systematic Platonic theory of concept acquisition. |

Forms, Souls, and Embryos allows readers coming from different backgrounds to appreciate the depth and originality with which the Neoplatonists engaged with and responded to a number of philosophical questions central to human reproduction, including: What is the causal explanation of the embryo’s formation? How and to what extent are Platonic Forms involved? In what sense is a fetus ‘alive,’ and when does it become a human being? Where does the embryo’s soul come from, and how is it connected to its body? This is the first full-length study in English of this fascinating subject, and is a must-read for anyone interested in Neoplatonism or the history of medicine and embryology. |

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) |

Es k6nnte sein, daf3 bei Simplikios\r\n- dem die modernen Ausgaben zu folgen pflegen - eine neuplatonische Adaption\r\ndes parmenideischen Wortlauts vorliegt, so daf die uberlieferte Form von Parm.\r\n8, 5 fur die Ermittlung der Lehre des grof3enEleaten ausscheiden muf3te - ein fur\r\ndie Vorsokratikerforschung recht erhebliches Ergebnis. - In einer zweiten Unter-\r\nsuchung geht der Verf. dem gleichen Motiv (,Gottes ewiges Heute': der Leser der\r\naugustinischen Confessionen hat es aus dem grofartigen Lobpreis XI 13 in Erinne-\r\nrung) bei Philon von Alexandria nach, wobei sich ein belehrender Einblick in die\r\nplatonistisdhe Tradition ergibt (verwunderlich, daf3 Clemens von Alexandria nach\r\nMigne's Patrologie, Maximos von Tyros nach der alten Dibner'sdlen Ausgabe\r\nzitiert werden). Auch aristotelische und stoische Einflusse werden gepruft. W. stellt\r\nfest, daf3 die meisten Philonstellen, die man bisher im Sinn der neuplatonischen\r\nLehre von einer zeit\u00fcberlegenen Ewigkeit gedeutet hatte, anders zu erklaren\r\nsind; eine Ausnahme scheint in einer allegorischen Auslegung des Alten Testaments\r\n(zu Levit. 2, 14) vorzuliegen (de sacrif. 76). Es bleibt dabei, daf3 das weitreidiende\r\nThema in voller Klarheit erstmals in Plutarchs ob. gen. Dialog angesprochen wird;\r\ner hangt sicher mit dem seit Ende des 1. Jh. v. Chr. wieder rege gewordenen\r\nStudium des platonischen Timaios zusammen, welches in dem Kommentar des\r\nAlexandriners Eudoros, eines pythagoreisierenden Platonikers, moglicherweiseeine\r\nQuelle Plutarchs hervorgebracht hat (hier ware auf eine den Problemen des mitt-\r\nleren Platonismus gewidmete Arbeit H. Dbrrie's hinzuweisen gewesen, in: Les\r\nSourdes de Plotin, Entresiens sur L'Antiquite Classique, t. V, 1957 193 it).\" (Review, H.

Iamblichus (245-325), successor to Plotinus and Porphyry, brought a new religiosity to Neoplatonism. His theory of the soul is at the heart of his philosophical system. For Iamblichus, the human soul is so far inferior to the divine that its salvation depends not on philosophy alone (as it did for Plotinus) but on the aid of the gods and other divinities. This edition of the fragments of Iamblichus' major work on the soul, De Anima, is accompanied by the first English translation of the work and a commentary which explains the philosophical background and Iamblichus' doctrine of the soul. Included as well are excerpts from the Pseudo-Simplicius and Priscianus (also translated with commentary) that shed further light on Iamblichus' treatise. [authors abstract] |

Est-il possible de donner a la metaphysique un statut scientifique tel qu'elle soit en mesure de controler toute la realite? En particulier, est-il possible d'appliquer un tel programme a la meta-ontologie neoplatonicienne, qui pose comme principe de toute realite l'Un ineffable, au-dela de l'etre? La reponse positive a cette question se trouve au fondement de la querelle entre les neoplatoniciens sur l'architecture de la meta-ontologie. Cette etude esquisse la premiere phase de ce debat qui eut comme protagonistes les philosophes les plus affirmes du IIIe et IVe siecle apres J.C.: Plotin, Porphyre et Jamblique. Elle vise a mettre en evidence le trajet epistemique que Jamblique a parcouru. La polemique qu'il conduit contre ses predecesseurs sert ici de fil conducteur pour suivre la demarche de cette legitimation. Elle est aussi l'indice d'un programme de recherche, un paradigme implicite, qui determine la selection et la formulation des problemes philosophiques et la validite des reponses, donc aussi le choix des methodes de preuve et des procedures de persuasion. |

This study provides the first full discussion of Philoponus' excursus on matter in contra Proclum XI. 1-8 which sets out the innovative definition of prime matter as three-dimensional extension. The author argues that Philoponus' definition was motivated primarily by philosophical problems in Neoplatonism. Philoponus employs the explanation of growth, the interpretation of Aristotle's category theory and the notions of formlessness and potentiality to substantiate his definition. To conclude, the book offers an assessment of the significance of Philoponus' innovation. It is demonstrated for the first time that Plotinus' view of matter exerted considerable influence on both Philoponus and Simplicius. Moreover, the structure of Syrianus' and Proclus' metaphysics prepared the way for Philoponus' account of prime matter. [Author’s abstract] |
