This book, translated from the French, offers a synthesis of modern research devoted to Simplicius’s life and to three of his five commentaries : On Epictetus’Handbook, On Aristotle’s De anima, On Aristotle’s Categories. Its biographical part brings to light the historical role played by this Neoplatonic philosopher. Born in Cilicia, Asia Minor, he studied in Alexandria and Athens and apparently ended his life teaching in Syria on the frontier between the Byzantine and Sassanide Empires.His role was that of a mediator between the Greco-Roman world and philosophy and Syriac philosophy, which would feed Arabic philosophy at its beginning.The second part of the book, devoted to doctrinal and authorship issues, also deals with the underlying pedagogical curriculum and methods proper to Neoplatonic commentaries, which modern interpretation all too often tends to neglect in studies on Simplicius and other Neoplatonists.

Ce livre explore la méthode et l'interprétation du Sophiste par Simplicius, en tant qu'elles illustrent l'exégèse néoplatonicienne tardive et entraînent une restauration de la lettre du texte. À partir d'un corpus issu des commentaires (largement inédit en français), Marc-Antoine Gavray reconstruit la lecture de Simplicius et la met en regard avec celles de Plotin, de Proclus et de Damascius. Il en ressort une exégèse attentive, digne d'accompagner le lecteur moderne dans sa compréhension de Platon.

Simplicius' commentary on Aristotle's "Categories" falls into two parts. First, it examines the six categories dealt with in chapter 9 of "Categories", namely acting, undergoing, being in a position, when, where, and having. Secondly, it examines the so-called "Postpraedicamenta" consisting of chapter 10-15, which treat four kinds of opposition (relatives, contraries, possession, and privation, affirmation and negation), along with priority, simultaneity, movement and (again) having.
