  • New Evidence on the Death of Philo of Larissa (Pherc
    New evidence on the death of Philo of Larissa (PHerc. 1021, col. 33,42 -34,7) 1. Introduction Philo of Larissa (159/58 or ca. 147 -84/83) was the last distinguished representative of the so-called sceptical Academy.1 He succeeded Clitomachus as scholarch in 110/09 BC and fled from Athens to Italy on the eve of the Mithridatic War and Sulla’s siege of Athens (88 BC). In Italy, Philo lectured on philosophy and attracted a lot of young noblemen, amongst them Cicero.2 A lot of valuable information about Philo’s life can be found exclusively in the final columns of Philodemus’ Index Academicorum (PHerc. 1021, col. 33,34). Although several improvements that could be made to the text since Dorandi’s edition (1991) have been published,3 a fragmentary passage between the report of Philo’s death and the mention of a person who obviously succeeded or deputised him during his absence continues to represent a puzzle to scholars (col. 33, 44 –col. 34,2). This is all the more regrettable if we take into consideration that the content of these lines could have a significant impact on the suggested supplements in the surrounding context and the whole syntax. In any case, the lines seem to contain a pivotal statement about either Philo or another Academic. * I am grateful to Tobias Reinhardt, Tiziano Dorandi, Holger Essler and Myrto Hatzimichali for valuable comments and suggestions. Furthermore I would like to thank Dirk Obbink for giving me the opportunity to discuss this paper in his Literary Papyrology class (Trinity term 2016, Oxford).

The 117 pages of main text are supplemented by 41 small-print pages of endnotes, altogether 314 of them, offering innumerable details from textual remarks to biblio- graphical data and, of course, various suggestions and interpretations.

From the title of the book, readers might expect a broad study on Theophrastus and his scholarly contribution, including the field for which he is most famous, viz. botany. Thus, for those interested in the history of natural sciences, it could be disappointing to find out that the book is rather a full-length treatment of Theophrastus’ Characters, which, as the sleeve-note mentions, ‘aims to locate this influential work with respect to the political and philosophical worlds of Athens in the late fourth century’. It does contain a few references to Theophrastus’ other scientific work but the focus is clearly on the Characters.2 At that, Millett’s study is a must for everyone dealing 1 The reviewer apologizes for the lateness of this review.

  • Peripatetic Epistemology After Aristotle: Theorising Knowledge from Theophrastus to Aristocles
    HAN BALTUSSEN PERIPATETIC EPISTEMOLOGY AFTER ARISTOTLE: THEORISING KNOWLEDGE FROM THEOPHRASTUS TO ARISTOCLES ABSTRACT: This paper assesses the evidence for Peripatetic epistemology after Aristotle, in particular how the Peripatetics dealt with their Aristotelian heritage. It examines the fragmentary remains of Peripatetic works between the death of Aristotle and the first century BCE. The account attempts to reconstruct some of the views in logical works and those sources which were inspired in part by Aristotle’s wide-ranging views on knowledge acquisition and justification. Apart from Theophrastus, the main figures discussed (including some of their interactions with other thinkers) are Strato of Lampsacus, Hieronymus of Rhodes, Aristo of Ceos, Critolaus, Boethus of Sidon and Aristocles of Messene. SOMMARIO: Questo articolo si occupa delle testimonianze relative all’epistemologia peripatetica dopo Aristotele; si tratterà, in particolare, di comprendere in che modo tali testimonianze affrontino l’eredità aristotelica. Il contributo, dunque, esamina i testi frammentari delle opere peripatetiche tra la morte di Aristotele e il I secolo a.C. Si tenta, quindi, di ricostruire alcune delle dottrine contenute nelle opere di argomento logico e di analizzare quegli autori che sono stati in parte ispirati dall’ampia teoria di Aristotele sull’acquisizione e sulla giustificazione della conoscenza. Oltre a Teofrasto, i principali pensatori che sono qui presi in considerazione sono Stratone di Lampsaco, Ieronimo di Rodi, Aristone di Ceo, Critolao,

    420 Arctos 54 (2020) individual inscriptions. In order to !nd out about these and other details, one has, then, to browse through the relevant chapters. "is, however, may not necessarily be a bad idea. To its credit, this book is notable for its overall lack of errors. I did observe some, however. On p.119 we !nd Egatius instead of Egnatius, and there are some misspelt names in the bibliography (e.g. “Ceccioni” instead of Cecconi, p. 392). I observed a mistaken interpretation of CIL VIII 11115 on p. 139 n. 507, where the honorand, a man of equestrian rank, is said to be the patruus of the two dedicators calling themselves imperial freedmen (Augg. lib[er]t[i]). "at would be an unusual scenario; but what we read (in l.11) is in fact not patruo (dative) but patrui (nominative), and the two freedmen are the uncles of the equestrian honorand, said to be domo Ro[ma]. As he is called L. Septimius Malchio Fortun[a]tus, one can surely conclude that his father, the brother of the freedmen, had also been an imperial freedman, namely a freedman of Septimius Severus and Caracalla and that we have here another instance of an imperial freedman’s son attaining equestrian rank. "ere are also some details I wondered about, such as the point of the observation on the clientes on p. 146 (“der Rang der clientes war o#enbar immer deutlich niedriger als der des patronus”) and the use of the term “vorchristlich”, which I think normally refers to the centuries before Constantine, in (apparently) referring to the period BC (p.

  • 4Reek Philosophy
    OUTLINES OE THE HISTORY OF 4reek philosophy BY Dr. EDWARD ZELLER TRANSLATED WITH THE AUTHOR'S SANCTION BY SARAH FRANCES ALLEYNE AND -ABBOTT tJNlVEBSITi t NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY 1S86 IN' MEMORIAM SARAH FRANCES ALLE7NE AUTHOR’S PREFACE. F or some years it has been my intention to respond to a request arising from various quarters, and add to my larger work on the Philosophy of the Greeks a short sketch of the same subject. But until the third edition of the History was brought to a conclusion I had not the leisure for the work. Sketches of thi3 kind will proceed on different lines according to the aim which is held in view. My object has been primarily to provide students with a help for academical lectures, which would facilitate preparation, and save the time wasted in writing down facts, without interfering with the lecturer’s work or imposing any fetters upon it. Hence I have made it my task to give my readers a pic­ ture of the contents of the philosophical systems, and the course of their historical development, which should contain all the essential traits— and also to put into their hands the more important literary references and sources. But as in the last points I have not gone beyond what is absolutely necessary, so in the historical account I have as a rule indicated the parts very briefly with which historical considerations of a general kind or special explanations and inquiries are connected, or in viii AUTHOR'S PREFACE. which, it seemed proper to supplement my earlier work.
