105 the Problem of the Genesis of Aristotle's Text FELIX GRAYEFF IE Are Informed by Strabo XIII, I, 54 and by Plutarch The Problem the Genesis Aristotle's Text of of FELIX GRAYEFF I are informed by Strabo XIII, I, 54 and by Plutarch (Sulla 26.) at thatE the works of Aristotle disappeared for least i Eo years and were, for the first time, edited in Rome by Andronicus of Rhodes, a peripatetic philosopher, of the second half of the first century B.C., i.e. approx. 2 7 5 years after the death of Aristotle. Strabo's and Plutarch's accounts are essentially identical and there is no doubt that Plutarch drew on Strabo; however, it is Plutarch who gives us the name of Andronicus, whereas Strabo only mentions Andronicus' predecessor, the grammarian Tyrannion of Amisus in Pontus, as an editor of Aristotle's manuscripts. Strabo's and Plutarch's accounts of the disappearance and re-discovery of the works of Aristotle have been variously interpreted - believed and disbelieved in parts - and it will be necessary for us to look at some of the details, especially in Strabo's account. Strabo reports that Theophrastus bequeathed his library which included Aristotle's 1 to Neleus, son of Coriscus, who took the books to his native Scepsis in the Troad. There, in the hands of Neleus' heirs, the books were neglected and later, to escape discovery by the kings of Pergamon, were buried in the ground where they lay hidden for i So years or more, sufl'ering greatly through moisture and moths. About i oo B. C. or shortly afterwards, the books were taken to Athens by Apellicon of Teos and from there, after the fall of Athens in 86 B.C., to Rome by Sulla. In Rome, the grammarian Tyrannion of Pontus, a friend of Cicero's and a great collector of books, obtained possession of the manuscripts and published them. But, Strabo says, Tyrannion's edition was full of grave errors, because Tyrannion himself filled the lacunae in the severely damaged texts, and also because he employed inferior copyists. Besides, the booksellers got hold of them and produced faulty editions. All the same, Strabo says, the publication of the manuscripts made possible a great advance over previous Aristotelian studies; for until then the works of Aristotle had not been known and, especially, the earlier peripatetics possessed the exoteric writings only, and hence could not philosophise soundly (7tpCXY[.LexTLX&Ç)but were "spinning empty hypo- theses. " Finally - and this is Plutarch's additional information - Andro- nicus of Rhodes, an Aristotelian, and presumably disciple of Tyrannion, 105 published all the manuscripts, arranging the works of Aristotle in the order in which they have come down to us and it is this edition which rescued Aristotle for posterity, and which is our Corpus Aristotelicum. This strange story, involving so important a matter as Aristotle's manuscripts, has always aroused great interest, all the more so because Strabo, who tells the story, was Tyrannion's contemporary and pre- sumably his student at one time. So his story is likely, at least partly, to be based on direct information. On the other hand, there are aspects of it which conflict with what is known otherwise. Strabo's statement, that the knowledge of Aristotle's writings had been lost for a long time and that the early peripatetics did not possess the master's writings, manifestly conflicts with the many testimonies we possess of the widespread in- fluence of peripatetic teaching throughout the centuries during which the manuscripts were supposed to have disappeared; cf. Ed. Zeller 3 II, 2 pp. 1 +8 foll. Secondly, Zeller rightly remarks that the text of Aristotle as we read it by no means bears out Strabo's story of the severely damaged moth-eaten manuscripts with their many gaps. In fact, the state of the text is comparatively good. Nevertheless, Zeller believes that the story of the burial and re-discovery of the manuscripts is essentially true, and that Aristotle's writings were known throughout the centuries from copies. But W. Jaeger 2 only accepts as true the report of the first publication of Aristotle's (own) works by Andronicus, and remarks that nothing of any significance can be elicited from the rest of the story. I think that Walter Leaf 3 excellently sums up the main im- pression a reader receives from Strabo's account. "It is to be concluded that all the main parties of the transaction - the heirs of Neleus, Apellicon and Tyrannion, - had reasons for making the most of the new material which between them they brought before the world. " We are hardly going much further in saying that the whole story is likely to be a fabrication, designed to give authenticity to the new edition of Aristotle's works prepared in Rome at first by Tyrannion and then, by Andronicus of Rhodes. Of these two, it appears that Andronicus was the real editor of Aristotle. It was he who re-established the peri- patetic school after its long eclipse, and he is mentioned as the tenth scholarch (or the eleventh, if Aristotle himself is counted) 4 of the school, 106 .

  • The Route of Paul's Second Journey in Asia Minor
    Tyndale Bulletin 67.2 (2016) 217-246 THE ROUTE OF PAUL’S SECOND JOURNEY IN ASIA MINOR IN THE STEPS OF ROBERT JEWETT AND BEYOND Glen L. Thompson and Mark Wilson ([email protected] and [email protected]) Summary Robert Jewett, in his 1997 article on Paul’s second journey, explored the geographical dimensions of Paul’s travel in north-west Asia Minor as described in Acts 16:6-8.1 His focus was to investigate thoroughly the road ‘down to Troas’ mentioned in verse 8. This study will not only renew that investigation from Dorylaeum where Jewett began it,2 but will also look at the earlier stages of the journey that began at Antioch on the Orontes. In so doing, it will examine the textual and material evidence that provides knowledge of the region’s road system. Regarding this route, Johnson observes: ‘Although endless scholarly discussion has been devoted to determining the precise route Paul took … it is in fact unsolvable.’3 Despite such a pessimistic perspective, hodological research in north-west Asia Minor in recent decades has provided fresh data to aid in evaluating alternative proposals for Paul’s 1 Robert Jewett, ‘Mapping the Route of Paul’s “Second Missionary Journey” from Dorylaeum to Troas’, Tyndale Bulletin 48.1 (1997), 1-22.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT Literary evidence on Lysimachus reveals a series of images which may say more about contemporary or later views on kingship than about the actual man, given the intrusion of bias, conventional motifs and propaganda. Thrace was Lysimachus* legacy from Alexander's empire; though problems posed by its formidable tribes and limited resources excluded him from the Successors' wars for nearly ten years, its position, linking Europe and Asia, afforded him some influence, Lysimachus failed to conquer "all of Thrace", but his settlements there achieved enough stability to allow him thoughts of rule across the Hellespont, in Asia Minor, More ambitious and less cautious than is often thought, Lysimachus' acquisition of empire in Asia Minor, Macedon and Greece from c.315 BC to 284 BC reflects considerable military and diplomatic skills, deployed primarily when self-interest demanded rather than reflecting obligations as a permanent member of an "anti-Antigonid team".

  • Lost Geography: the Geographical Fragments of Daës of Colonae, Democles of Phygela and Dionysius of Chalcis1
    Lost Geography: The Geographical Fragments of Daës of Colonae, Democles of Phygela and Dionysius of Chalcis1 Daniela Dueck Introduction Greek and Roman sources do not offer a clear definition of gewgrafiva, and it was never even an independent scholarly discipline.2 Geographical themes appeared in almost every literary genre and works devoted to geographical issues were written in prose or verse, discussed the world as a whole or a region within it or dealt with either concepts or calculations. Scientists, mathematicians, astronomers, historians, philosophers, poets and travellers — all could produce written records discussing geographical issues. The following collection includes fragments containing geographical data by authors of varied identity and intellectual orientation. It has long been recognized, even if not declared outright, that the Geography of Strabo is an encyclopedic compilation. It is neither arranged thematically nor does it include an organized catalogue, as opposed, for instance, to the Historia Naturalis of Pliny the Elder.3 However, it is definitely a collection of numerous items of information on a wide range of topics pertaining to the entire world known at the time (first century BCE). Strabo himself sets the standards for good geographical writing: its author must have acquired a broad range of learning (polumaqiva), and his proposed audience must have had an encyclopedic training (ejgkuvklio" ajgwghv) (1.1.12; 1.1.22). The Geography is therefore a work that warrants being called encyclopedic because it includes copious and diversified data. The encyclopedic nature of the compilation, as well as its variety, are reflected in many modern studies that do not deal specifically with Strabo, yet often cite his work on very specific points.
