G. Vlastos, in Gnomon, XXV (1953), pp. 34-5, claims that he (and J. E. Raven before him) have laid to rest "the alleged corporeality of Melissean Being in the grave which contains Burnet's famous dogma of Eleatic materialism." There is a surprising finality about this claim of Vlastos', and it behooves his critics to consider whether such finality is justified. I think myself that, while Vlastos' arguments are forceful and well ex- pressed, they still fail to carry absolute conviction; and in this brief discussion I shall try to set out the reasons for my scepticism. [p. 61]

In den philosophischen Texten der späten Kaiserzeit stößt man zuweilen auf den Namen Ptolemaios, ohne daß dabei an einen Lagiden oder an den berühmten Astronomen zu denken wäre. Wie jene Zitate auf einen oder mehrere Träger dieses Namens zu verteilen seien, war eine einst viel diskutierte Frage, die dann allerdings im Anschluß an eine Vermutung W. v. Christs durch das Buch von A. Chatzis (Der Philosoph und Grammatiker Ptolemaios Chennos I = Stud. z Gesch. u. Kult. d. Altert. VII 2, Paderborn 1914) endgültig dahin beantwortet schien, es handele sich bei all diesen Ptolemaioi immer wieder um Ptolemaios Chennos aus der Zeit um 100 n. Chr., der uns durch den Auszug des Photios aus seiner καινὴ ἱστορία (cod. 190) recht gut bekannt ist. Diese Frage soll hier einer erneuten Prüfung unterzogen werden. [introduction, p. 314]

G. Pfligersdorffer has recently described the attitude of the an- cient editor, Andronicus of Rhodes, towards the final notes in Aristotle's Categories on opposites, simultaneity, priority, motion and possession-what the medievals called the postpraedicamenta. [...] The text I have proposed will still support Pfligersdorffer's argument (a) noted above-but none of the others. [p. 179, p. 185]

This article by N. B. Booth examines whether Zeno's arguments were a response to criticisms of Parmenides's principle „the One“. Despite evidence that Zeno was concerned with defending Parmenides's „One“, his arguments about plurality seem to refute the "ones" of a plurality. One possible explanation is that Zeno's arguments were used to counter criticisms of Parmenides's „One“ before he produced them. Plato's Parmenides includes a passage in which "Zeno" apologizes for his book on plurality, which has been interpreted as an answer to criticisms of Parmenides's theory, but Booth notes that Plato's characters are idealized and it is not certain that Zeno's arguments were a response to attacks. Booth looks at the arguments themselves for evidence and suggests that if some of Zeno's arguments against plural "ones" were valid against Parmenides's „One“, it would be fair to infer that they were used by hostile critics and Zeno was throwing them back in their faces.

This article deals with four almost classic problems in Anaximander. Of these the first is of comparatively minor importance, and the second is important not for what Anaximander thought but for what Aristotle thought he thought. Problem I is: Did Anaximander describe his 3 dE"repov as apX-, ? Problem 2: Did Aristotle mean Anaximander when he referred to people who postulated an intermediate substance? Problem 3: Did Anaximander think that there were innumerable successive worlds? Problem 4: What is the extent and implication of the extant fragment of Anaximander ? Appended is a brief con- sideration of the nature of Theophrastus' source-material for Anaximander; on one's opinion of this question the assessment of the last two problems will clearly depend.

Simplikios hat das Schema von Phys. 12 zweimal für die Monisten vervollständigt. Bei den Eleaten konnte er dabei Aristoteles' eigener Erweiterung im Verlauf von 12 folgen. Dieses Raster liegt nun auch in Metaph. A 5, 986 b 17 sqq. vor; insofern konnte Simplikios die auf diesen letzteren Passus zurückgehenden, das erweiterte Raster aufweisenden Auskünfte Theophrasts ohne weiteres an seine Gliederung nahtlos anfügen.

This series in the field of classics grew out of Project Theophrastus, an international undertaking whose goal is to collect, edit, and comment on the fragments of Theophrastus, Greek philosopher, Aristotle's pupil and second head of the Peripatetic School. Contributions are by international experts, and each volume will have a particular focus. Volume I is devoted to Arius Didymus, court philosopher to Caesar Augustus and author of an extensive survey of Stoic and Peripatetic ethics. Volumes II and III will concentrate on Theophrastus and disseminate knowledge gained through work on the project. Volume IV will focus on Cicero and his knowledge of Hellenistic philosophy.

In this paper I shall be discussing two topics; firstly, whether Theophrastus followed Aristotle in holding that the heavens were made of a substance, the ether, distinct from the four sublunary elements, or whether as some have argued he held that the heavens were made of fire; and secondly the exact interpretation of certain technical terms of astronomy attributed to Theophrastus.

The most important ancient writing on the history of European 
thought was  the  Physical  Opinions of  Theophrastus.1 In  this 
work of  sixteen  or  eighteen books Theophrastus gave  for  the  first 
time a systematic treatment of earlier views on the main problems of 
science and philosophy. Its  influence in  antiquity is  attested  by  the 
frequency and respect with which it  was referred to by  later ancient 
writers. But  its unique position was not  fully appreciated by modern 
scholars  until Usener2 collected  the fragments  of it and Diels 
scrutinized these  fragments in  relation  to  the  large  body  of  other 
doxographical writings. Diels  proved that  these  writings,  far  from 
being isolated and independent, were virtually all  derived directly or 
indirectly from the Physical  Opinions.3 This  fact has  been of  great 
consequence for the evaluation of  both the  doxographers and Theo- 
phrastus.  Statements of  such writers as  Aetius  have  been  invested 
with the full authority of Theophrastus, and, on the other hand, this 
authority has  seemingly been enhanced by  the  very  number of  the 
doxographers who accepted it.  When a  report has  been traced back 
to the Physical Opinions, scholars have been satisfied that it has been 
traced to  an  "unimpeachable source" and  that  it  "must have  been 
based on direct acquaintance" with the original Presocratic writing. [p. 85]

In the list of Theophrastus’ works on rhetoric and poetics as given in 
the new collection under 666 FHS&G one finds twenty-four items, 
some of them (2 and 17) subdivided into (a) and (b). Most of these titles 
come from the list of Theophrastus’ works in Diogenes Laertius 5.42- 
50. In all but five cases (2, 6,17, 22 and 23, the last two on comedy and 
on the ludicrous respectively), Diogenes is our only source for them. 
The responsible editor, W. W. Fortenbaugh, also refers to several titles 
of works which other scholars had placed in the group of rhetorical trea­
tises, but his classification is different. This variation is explained by the 
fact that Diogenes’ list does not give any indication of the type of work 
to which any title belongs, which leaves scholars free to devise their 
own arrangement.In what follows I will discuss the place or the wording of a few titles, 
and especially that of 17b, thereby focusing on the nature and contents 
of 683 FHS&G. The editors have declined to arrange the fragments ac­
cording to known works (cp. vol. I, pp. 7-8). Nevertheless, I will argue, 
even by their arrangement of the titles they  sometimes  suggest too 
much, or too little. [Introduction, p. 67]

Theophrastus was Aristotle's pupil and second head of the Peripatetic School. Apart from two botanical works, a collection of character sketches, and several scientific opuscula, his works survive only through quotations and reports in secondary sources. Recently these quotations and reports have been collected and published, thereby making the thought of Theophrastus accessible to a wide audience. The present volume contains seventeen responses to this material.

There are chapters dealing with Theophrastus' views on logic, physics, biology, ethics, politics, rhetoric, and music, as well as the life of Theophrastus. Together these writings throw considerable light on fundamental questions concerning the development and importance of the Peripatos in the early Hellenistic period. The authors consider whether Theophrastus was a systematic thinker who imposed coherence and consistency on a growing body of knowledge, or a problem-oriented thinker who foreshadowed the dissolution of Peripatetic thought into various loosely connected disciplines. Of special interest are those essays which deal with Theophrastus' intellectual position in relation to the lively philosophic scene occupied by such contemporaries as Zeno, the founder of the Stoa, and Epicurus, the founder of the Garden, as well as Xenocrates and Polemon hi the Academy, and Theophrastus' fellow Peripatetics, Eudemus and Strato.

The contributors to the volume are Suzanne Amigues, Antonio Battegazzore, Tiziano Dorandi, Woldemar Gorier, John Glucker, Hans Gottschalk, Frans de Haas, Andre Laks, Anthony Long, Jorgen Mejer, Mario Mignucci, Trevor Saunders, Dirk Schenkeveld, David Sedley, Robert Sharpies, C. M. J. Sicking and Richard Sorabji. The Rutgers University Studies in Classical Humanities series is a forum for seminal thinking in the field of philosophy, and this volume is no exception. Theophrastus is a landmark achievement in intellectual thought. Philosophers, historians, and classicists will all find this work to be enlightening. [author's abstract]

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]
