    Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - A key personality in the collection and reworking of the classical philosophical sources for a non-specialized, yet cultivated audience, the orator and philosopher Themistius (317-389) is a case in point for the study of the transmission of Ancient Philosophy to later eras. He consciously set for himself the goal to present Aristotle's doctrines in a simplified manner, thus providing a powerful model for the inculturation of Greek philosophy in other linguistic areas and religious landscapes. Themistius and the Power of Words, with its twin focus on Themistius' thought and on the impact of his ideas on Arabic and Latin-speaking areas, provides a survey of Themistius' distinctive position and a balanced view of his intellectual deeds, both as an orator and as an Aristotelian scholar. In doing so, it explores topics such as Themistius' philosophical interpretation of the nature and role of the First Cause, the Law and the order of the cosmos, the human mind, and the human assimilation to God from the point of view of a cross-analysis of historical, literary, and philosophical aspects. This book shows that Themistius' philosophical interpretations and 'original' developments, and their legacy are better understood against the background of the rise of a new conception of philosophy in what we label nowadays 'Late Antiquity'.…

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. English summary: This festschrift honors Henri Hugonnard-Roche, one of the preeminent scholars of the transmission of knowledge between languages in late Antiquity. Examining intellectual and philosophical transfer and translation from Greek to Syriac to Arabic to Latin, the studies reflect the rich world of medieval intellectual translation across linguistic and religious boundaries. French description: La circulation du savoir philosophique a travers les traductions du grec au syriaque, du grec a l'arabe, du syriaque a l'arabe, de l'arabe au latin forme, depuis un siecle et plus de recherches savantes, un domaine scientifique a part entiere. Ce volume reunit des specialistes des disciplines du domaine voulant rendre hommage a un collegue dont l'activite a ouvert une voie, Henri Hugonnard-Roche. Specialiste de la transmission du grec au syriaque de la logique aristotelicienne, Henri Hugonnard-Roche a montre par ses recherches la continuite entre la philosophie de l'Antiquite tardive et la pensee des chretiens de langue syriaque d'un cote, des savants musulmans ecrivant en arabe, de l'autre. Reunis souvent par ce que Werner Jaeger avait autrefois designe comme la portee oecumenique de l'Antiquite classique , des musulmans et des chretiens faisant partie d'un cercle philosophique se penchaient, dans la ville de Bagdad au Xe siecle, sur le texte d'Aristote. Leur Aristote etait souvent celui de l'Antiquite tardive: l'Aristote de l'ecole neoplatonicienne d'Alexandrie que les intellectuels de la Syrie chretienne avaient deja rencontre quelque quatre siecles auparavant et qu'ils avaient traduit, en meme temps que Galien, et parfois commente. Des noms presque inconnus comme celui de Sergius de Resh'ayna (mort en 536) commencent dans nos manuels a en cotoyer d'autres bien plus connus, comme celui de Boece, grace aux recherches de Henri Hugonnard-Roche. Ce volume, par la variete des langues qui s'y entremelent, des traditions de pensee qu'il fait fusionner, par l'acribie des contributions et le caractere novateur des editions de textes et des etudes ponctuelles qu'il contient, temoigne du rayonnement international du savant auquel il est offert, et de l'effervescence du domaine de recherche auquel il a si grandement contribue.

    Couverture souple. Condición: Neuf. NA2982, PC471-2, 1.045, 9782711625758. La circulation du savoir philosophique à travers les traductions du grec au syriaque, du grec à l'arabe, du syriaque à l'arabe, de l'arabe au latin forme, depuis un siècle et plus de recherches savantes, un domaine scientifique à part entière. Ce volume réunit des spécialistes des disciplines du domaine voulant rendre hommage à un collègue dont l'activité a ouvert une voie, Henri Hugonnard-Roche. Spécialiste de la transmission du grec au syriaque de la logique aristotélicienne, Henri Hugonnard-Roche a montré par ses recherches la continuité entre la philosophie de l'Antiquité tardive et la pensée des chrétiens de langue syriaque d'un côté, des savants musulmans écrivant en arabe, de l'autre. Réunis souvent par ce que Werner Jaeger avait autrefois désigné comme «la portée oecuménique de l'Antiquité classique», des musulmans et des chrétiens faisant partie d'un cercle philosophique se penchaient, dans la ville de Bagdad au Xe siècle, sur le texte d'Aristote. Leur «Aristote» était souvent celui de l'Antiquité tardive : l'Aristote de l'école néoplatonicienne d'Alexandrie que les intellectuels de la Syrie chrétienne avaient déjà rencontré quelque quatre siècles auparavant et qu'ils avaient traduit, en même temps que Galien, et parfois commenté. Des noms presque inconnus comme celui de Sergius de Resh'ayna (mort en 536) commencent dans nos manuels à en côtoyer d'autres bien plus connus, comme celui de Boèce, grâce aux recherches de Henri Hugonnard-Roche. Ce volume, par la variété des langues qui s'y entremêlent, des traditions de pensée qu'il fait fusionner, par l'acribie des contributions et le caractère novateur des éditions de textes et des études ponctuelles qu'il contient, témoigne du rayonnement international du savant auquel il est offert, et de l'effervescence du domaine de recherche auquel il a si grandement contribué.…

    Condición: NEW. Pisa: Edizioni ETS, 2022 9788846764560 Philosophica 285 809 276 p. : ill. col. b/n, indice, biografia ; 24 cm. Fra i problemi perenni dell'aristotelismo sta la teoria dell'intelletto, che dall'antichità ad oggi continua ad essere oggetto di dibattito. Come un organismo vivente, l'aristotelismo ha subito molte modifiche e così anche l'interpretazione della dottrina dell'anima. Un retore filosofo del IV secolo, Temistio, ne ha elaborata una così longeva da raggiungere la Spagna musulmana del XII secolo e l'Europa latina del XIII. Per Averroè e per Tommaso d'Aquino, in modi diversi, Temistio è una voce autorevole nella comprensione del De Anima di Aristotele. Questo libro descrive la posizione di Temistio e mette in luce la forza di suggestione dei suoi contenuti. Ne emerge un pensiero vivo, che proprio nel confronto con la riflessione medievale rivela il suo carattere peculiare: è leggendo il De Anima con le soluzioni di Plotino a portata di mano che Temistio ha costruito la propria alternativa alla noetica del più grande maestro della storia dell'aristotelismo greco, Alessandro di Afrodisia. Poiché questo libro verte sulla recezione medievale di Temistio almeno tanto quanto su Temistio stesso, è corredato dalla prima traduzione della versione araba della parafrasi (relativamente alla dottrina dell'intelletto) e dalla traduzione di una tra le parti del Commento grande di Averroè sul De Anima in cui il debito verso Temistio è più evidente. Questo segmento della storia dell'aristotelismo fornisce elementi utili all'analisi di un tema filosofico sempre aperto: lo statuto della facoltà. …

Noi vediamo in Atene, intorno all'anno 330, Aristotele con Callippo e Polemarco ancora affaticarsi per adattare le sfere omocentriche di Eudosso alle proprie teorie fisiche dell'universo. Cinquanta o sessant'anni dopo, Aristarco di Samo proclama al mondo, come ipotesi probabile, il sistema astronomico che poi fu detto di Copernico! Ma vi ha di più. Il grandioso concetto non trova terreno adatto a mettere profonde radici; e quasi subito dopo annunziato, scompare. Per quali cause, ed in qual modo è ciò avvenuto? Ecco i quesiti a cui ho voluto cercare una risposta. (G. Schiaparelli, Origine del sistema planetario eliocentrico presso i Greci, 1926). Gli studi raccolti in questo volume riguardano il plurisecolare processo di esegesi e trasformazione delle opere di Aristotele sul cosmo e sul mondo sublunare, dalle scuole di età imperiale e tardoantica ai commenti medievali. Attraverso le traduzioni di opere autentiche, di opere spurie, di commenti tardoantichi, i filosofi della classicità araba e del Medioevo latino si sono formati l'idea che Aristotele avesse costituito un sistema completo del sapere, fondato su procedimenti dimostrativi e sulla subordinazione delle scienze: in quelle fisiche, il De Caelo è sussunto sotto la Fisica, le Meteore sotto il De Caelo. È il cosmo pre-moderno che così si delinea, e la storia della scienza non ha ancora smesso di esplorarne i problemi e l'influenza.…

    Hardback, 302 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English.*new ISBN 9782503581644. Summary This is the first book length examining closely Themistius' philosophical thought and his understanding of Aristotelian philosophy. Themistius, well known as an eloquent orator and political personality of Constantinople during the fourth century ad, is an influential commentator on works of Aristotle. By assessing both of these aspects of Themistius' intellectual accomplishments, the present work explores and contextualizes his thought in both his paraphrases of the works of Aristotle and in his orations. Themistius' interpretation of Aristotelian thought, deeply influential in both the Arab and Latin worlds, and his strategy for teaching Aristotle, even outside the professional schools of philosophy, are major foci of this study. In particular, this work explicates Themistius' understanding of the nature and causality of the First Principle, of the cosmic order, and of the human soul and intellect. It argues that Themistius' approach reflects not only the systematization imparted by Alexander of Aphrodisias to the doctrines of Aristotle, but also the increasing, though oftentimes silent, influence of Plotinus. This is evident in the consideration of the three philosophical issues of God, cosmos, and soul analysed in Themistius, which reveal the preponderance of Plotinus' philosophy reflected in the Themistian orations. Concomitantly, it explores how Themistius' teachings proved decisive in the medieval understanding of Aristotle both among Arabic and Hebrew readers, as well as in the universities of Latin Europe. As such, this study challenges our understanding of philosophy in fourth-century Constantinople. TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface, by R.C. Taylor Introduction Chapter 1. Themistius.

    Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. A key personality in the collection and reworking of the classical philosophical sources for a non-specialized, yet cultivated audience, the orator and philosopher Themistius (317389) is a case in point for the study of the transmission of Ancient Philosophy to later eras. He consciously set for himself the goal to present Aristotles doctrines in a simplified manner, thus providing a powerful model for the inculturation of Greek philosophy in other linguistic areas and religious landscapes. Themistius and the Power of Words, with its twin focus on Themistius thought and on the impact of his ideas on Arabic and Latin-speaking areas, provides a survey of Themistius distinctive position and a balanced view of his intellectual deeds, both as an orator and as an Aristotelian scholar. In doing so, it explores topics such as Themistius philosophical interpretation of the nature and role of the First Cause, the Law and the order of the cosmos, the human mind, and the human assimilation to God from the point of view of a cross-analysis of historical, literary, and philosophical aspects. This book shows that Themistius philosophical interpretations and original developments, and their legacy are better understood against the background of the rise of a new conception of philosophy in what we label nowadays "Late Antiquity".
