"This volume sheds new light on Alexander of Aphrodisias' On Mixture and Growth as an intelligent and carefully crafted rebuttal of Stoic blending, which Alexander regarded as the closest rival of his own brand of hylomorphism. The authors explore Alexander's dialectical method and determine the precise character of the Stoic theory he attacks. The problematic notions of mutual co-extension and infinite division appear in their proper context, while the successive stages of the process of blending are carefully distinguished from the resulting state of the blend. In this perspective the discussion of growth that closes Alexander's work finds its natural place"-- Provided by publisher.

Ways into the Logic of Alexander of Aphrodisias is intended to give an overview of the logic of Alexander of Aphrodisias (fl. early Third century A.D.). Since much of what might be called Alexander's logic is simply Aristotelian logic, instead of engaging in point-by-point analysis, it takes up three themes, one from each of the main areas of traditional logic: the assertoric syllogistic, the modal syllogistic, and the area of metalogical concerns. It provides insight not only into Aristotle's logical writings themselves but also into the tradition of scholarship which they spawned: the ideas and analyses of such figures as Theophrastus of Eresus, John Philoponus and (more recently) Jan Lukasiewicz.

Der heute verlorene Kommentar von Alexander aus Aphrodisias (ca. 200 n. Chr.) zur Physik des Aristoteles ist eines der wichtigsten Werke der Antike: beeinflusste er doch als Quelle sowohl die neuplatonischen Kommentatoren zu Aristoteles (vor allem Simplikios) als auch – vermittelt durch die Zitate bei Averroes – die Naturphilosophie des Mittelalters. Die von Marwan Rashed präsentierte Erstedition und Untersuchung der nahezu 700 byzantinischen Scholien, die erst jüngst in zwei Pariser Handschriften vom Anfang des 14. Jahrhunderts (Paris. Suppl. gr. 643, Paris. gr. 1859) entdeckt wurden, erlauben eine genauere Rekonstruktion der physikalischen Lehren Alexanders und tragen zugleich zum besseren Verständnis der Geschichte des Aristotelismus und der vor-klassischen Physik bei. Auch finden sich beispielsweise neue Präzisierungen seiner Lehre von Ort und Zeit ebenso wie seines Zugangs zur Bewegung des ‚Ersten Bewegers‘. Die byzantinischen Scholien ermöglichen zum ersten Mal, die völlige Abhängigkeit des Simplikios von seinem Vorgänger festzustellen und, noch wichtiger, die Transformationen, die er an der peripatetischen Naturphilosophie unternahm, um sie mit einem gewissen Platonismus in Einklang zu bringen.
