The commentary of John Philoponus (6th century AD) on the opening three chapters of \u003ci\u003eMeteorology \u003c\/i\u003eis here translated for the first time into English by Dr Inna Kupreeva, building on the work of L.G. Westerink. Philoponus, who today is increasingly respected as a philosopher in his own right, here engages critically with Aristotle's views about the building-blocks of our world, its size and relationship to other heavenly bodies, and reception of warmth from the sun. The translation in this volume is accompanied by a detailed introduction, extensive commentary notes and a bibliography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philoponus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1472558219\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472558213\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/10\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.31d","brand":"Philoponus","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44169853108479,"sku":"9781472558213","price":51.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03515fe1-6aa0-4ebc-bd04-1584075b1961.jpg?v=1689655302","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/philoponus-philoponus-9781472558213","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
