{"product_id":"simplicius-j-o-urmson-9781472558435","title":"Simplicius: On Aristotle on the Soul 1.1-2.4","description":"The commentary attributed to Simplicius on Aristotle's \u003ci\u003eOn the Soul \u003c\/i\u003eappears in this series in three volumes, of which this is the first. The translation provides the first opportunity for a wider readership to assess the disputed question of authorship. Is the work by Simplicius, or by his colleague Priscian, or by another commentator? In the second volume, Priscian's \u003ci\u003eParaphrase of Theophrastus on Sense Perception\u003c\/i\u003e, which covers the same subject, will also be translated for comparison. \u003cbr\u003eWhatever its authorship, the commentary is a major source for late Neoplatonist theories of thought and sense perception and provides considerable insight into this important area of Aristotle's thought. In this first volume, the Neoplatonist commentator covers the first half of Aristotle's \u003ci\u003eOn the Soul\u003c\/i\u003e, comprising Aristotle's survey of his predecessors and his own rival account of the nature of the soul.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
