  • Dio Chrysostom's Charidemus and Aristotle's Eudemus
    Dio Chrysostom’s Charidemus and Aristotle’s Eudemus Katarzyna Jażdżewska IO CHRYSOSTOM’S DIALOGUE Charidemus exhibits a rich intertextual network, and recent scholarship has D explored Dio’s interaction with Plato’s Phaedo, with Hellenistic philosophy (particularly Stoicism and Cynicism), and with consolation, λόγος παραµυθητικός.1 In this note I would like to add to the literary background of the dialogue by arguing that, so far as extant evidence allows us to judge, Dio’s Charidemus seems to have been particularly closely associated with Aristotle’s lost dialogue Eudemus in respect to format, overall character, and themes covered. Aristotle’s Eudemus was a dialogue written to commemorate Eudemus of Cyprus, a deceased friend and a member of the Academy, who died in Syracuse around 354 B.C.E.2 Ps.- Plutarch’s Consolation to Apollonius 115B (= Arist. fr.44) informs us that Aristotle’s work was known under the title Eudemus, or On the soul. We do not know who the interlocutors were; Aristotle may have been one of the speakers.3 From Cicero’s De 1 For Plato see J. Moles, “The Dionian Charidemus,” 187–210, and M. Trapp, “Plato in Dio,” 213–239, in S. Swain (ed.), Dio Chrysostom. Politics, Letters, and Philosophy (Oxford 2000); K. Jażdżewska, “Dio Chrysostom’s Charidemos: A Study,” Eos 101 (2014) 67–81, at 69–76. For consolatory topoi, M. C. Giner Soria, “Acotaciones a un diálogo consolatorio,” Faventia 12–13 (1990) 293–305.

Protréptico 8.77.3 PREFACIO Una tesis doctoral debe tratar de contribuir al avance del conocimiento humano en su disciplina, y la pretensión de que este comentario al Protréptico tenga la máxima utilidad posible me obliga a escribirla en inglés porque es la única lengua que hoy casi todos los interesados pueden leer. Pero no deja de ser extraño que en la casa de Nebrija se deje de lado la lengua castellana. La deuda que contraigo ahora con el español sólo se paliará si en el futuro puedo, en compensación, “dar a los hombres de mi lengua obras en que mejor puedan emplear su ocio”. Empiezo ahora a saldarla, empleándola para estos agradecimientos, breves en extensión pero no en sinceridad. Mi gratitud va, en primer lugar, al Cardenal Don Gil Álvarez de Albornoz, fundador del Real Colegio de España, a cuya generosidad y previsión debo dos años provechosos y felices en Bolonia. Al Rector, José Guillermo García-Valdecasas, que administra la herencia de Albornoz con ejemplar dedicación, eficacia y amor a la casa. A todas las personas que trabajan en el Colegio y hacen que cumpla con creces los objetivos para los que se fundó. Y a mis compañeros bolonios durante estos dos años. Ha sido un honor muy grato disfrutar con todos ellos de la herencia albornociana.

  • Daniel Jugrin
    Studia Philosophiae Christianae UKSW 52(2016)2 DanIel JuGrIn THE WAY OF ἈΝΆΛΥΣΙΣ: CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA AND THE PLATONIC TRADITION Abstract. In Clement of Alexandria, the three ways of knowing God appear implicitly in the form: the way of analogy, the way of negation (in the mathematical version), and the way of eminence. A basic aspect of the negation appears as an expression of Clementine criticism on anthropomorphism. The Platonic traditional model of via negativa is related to the mathematical theory of abstraction and is defined as a denial of the material things in order to reach the contemplation of God through pure mind: “we start by abstracting the surface, and we are left with the line; we abstract the line, and we are left with the point; we abstract the point, or strictly speaking the monad, and we are then precipitated into the greatness of Christ” (Stromateis V.11.71.2). Clement of Alexandria is, also, one of the authors who emphasize silence and prayer as having great importance in the knowledge process. The cessation of the activity of the senses leads to the supreme state of contemplation with a pure mind. Silence becomes, in this way, a symbol of God, and knowledge – not a matter of speaking, but of being. Keywords: Clement of Alexandria, Platonic Tradition, knowledge of God, abstractive way, analysis, aphairesis, silence 1. The geometrical method of ἀνάλυσις . 2. Via negativa and the theme of silence in Clement of Alexandria. 3. The origin of the mathematical model of via negativa. St. Justin, martyr and philosopher (103 – 165 AD), was the first Christian thinker who claimed that God can be characterized only in negative terms.1 His vision was familiar in the context of Helle- nistic Judaism: Philo of Alexandria (20 BC – 50 AD)2 had already established the ideas put forward by Justin.

  • The Appeal to Easiness in Aristotle's Protrepticus
    THE APPEAL TO EASINESS IN ARISTOTLE’S PROTREPTICUS Matthew D. Walker [Uncorrected draft. To be published in Ancient Philosophy 39 (2019). Please cite only the final published version.] Aristotle’s Protrepticus sought to exhort its audience to engage in philosophy (filosofi&a), i.e., the “acquisition and use of wisdom” (kth~si&v te kai_ xrh~siv sofi&av: 6, 40.2-3/B53; cf. 6, 37.7-9/B8).1 The Protrepticus is now lost. But work by D.S. Hutchinson and Monte Ransome Johnson (2005) has confirmed earlier speculation – initiated by Ingram Bywater (1869) – that Iamblichus preserves large passages of the work in his own Protrepticus. Hutchinson and Johnson 2018 argue that significant portions of the Protrepticus also appear in Iamblichus’ De Communi Mathematica Scientia (DCMS), and that the Protrepticus was originally a dialogue. In passages preserved in Chapter 6 of Iamblichus’ Protrepticus (at 40.15-41.2/B55- 56), Aristotle offers three linked arguments for the claim that philosophy is easy. (I number the arguments in the translation that follows.) [1] For, with no pay coming from people to those who philosophize, on account of which [the latter] would have labored strenuously in this way, and with a great lead extended to the other arts, nevertheless their passing [the other arts] in exactness despite running a short time seems to me to be a sign of the easiness about philosophy. [2] And further, everybody’s feeling at home in it and wishing to occupy leisure with it, leaving aside all else, is no small sign that the close attention comes with pleasure; for no one is willing to labor for a long time.

  • Walter Nicgorski: Cicero on Aristotle and Aristotelians 35 and the Teachings of the Peripatetic School Founded by Aristotle
    WALTER NICGORSKI Cicero on Aristotle and Aristotelians ABSTRACT: Set against tendencies in the Renaissance and later political theory to see Cicero in tension with Aristotle, this research essay reports the results of a close study of all of Cicero’s texts that bear on his reading, understanding and assessment of Aristotle and the Peripatetic school. The essay necessarily attends to Cicero’s sources for his encoun- ter with Aristotle and affirms, with some qualifications, Cicero’s overall continuity with the moral and political thought of Aristotle. KEYWORDS: Aristotle, Cicero, Socrates, Theophrastus, Peripatetic, New Academy, Rhetoric, Stoic, Dialogues, Virtue, Equality, Petrarch. [M]y philosophical writings differing very little from Peri- patetic teachings, for both I and those men wish to follow in the Socratic and Platonic tradition… (Cicero, De Officiis I. 2) cicero was rome’s “best Aristotelian”. (dante)1 The authority of the American Declaration of Independen- ce rests in part on its drawing from “elementary books of public right as Aristotle, Cicero, Locke, Sidney, etc.” (Tho- mas Jefferson, 1824/1973. 12) This research essay provides the basis, in cicero’s own writings, to see his moral and political thinking as a significant Roman manifestation of political Aristo- telianism. It examines closely his assessment of Aristotle’s political legacy and the necessary preliminary topic of cicero’s sources for understanding Aristotle 1 This was dante’s judgement according to A. E. Douglas (1965, 162) and Paul Renucci (1954, 331). A seemingly different claim made by the 20th century scholar Ernest Fortin (1996, 33) was that cicero and Varro are “Plato’s roman disciples.” WALTER NICGORSKI: CICERO ON ARISTOTLE AND ARISTOTELIANS 35 and the teachings of the Peripatetic school founded by Aristotle.

    Université de Sherbrooke Faculté des lettres et sciences humaines Département de philosophie et d’éthique appliquée La justification de l'éclectisme : Galien médecin et philosophe Par Jérémie Hébrard Sous la direction de Benoît Castelnérac Sherbrooke Juillet 2020 Résumé : L’enjeu de ce mémoire tient en quelques mots : restituer à Galien la place qui lui convient au sein de l’histoire de la philosophie. Les préjugés entourant l’œuvre du médecin de Pergame ainsi que son agnosticisme avoué lui ont souvent valu la réputation d’être un penseur sans grande profondeur qu’on pouvait négliger sans préjudice. La richesse de son témoignage, dont les philosophes ont fait peu de cas jusqu’à assez récemment, se révèle pourtant indispensable pour reconstituer la transition entre la philosophie post-hellénistique vers l’Antiquité tardive. Si la tâche peut paraître herculéenne, on aurait pourtant tort de s’en détourner sous ce prétexte, et notre modeste contribution s’avère un pas dans la bonne direction. Dans ce mémoire, je me propose de revoir l’immense œuvre de Galien à la lumière de son attitude éclectique, qui cimente sa pensée en dépit de la pluralité des thèmes qu’elle englobe. Cette recherche plaide donc pour une interprétation renouvelée de la relation de Galien à la philosophie en cherchant d’abord à montrer comment les courants de pensée qu’il côtoyait ont influencé sa pensée, mais également comment il s’est affranchi du dogmatisme des écoles philosophiques. Sa relation avec le scepticisme de la Nouvelle Académie y est également abordée dans notre traduction inédite de son traité Du meilleur enseignement.

  • Chapter Five
    chapter five SUMMARY Theophrastus, Aristotle’s pupil and second head of the Peripatetic School, wasapopularteacher.Heissaidtohavehadroughly,students (.). He was also a prolific writer. The catalogue of Theophrastus’ writ- ings preserved by Diogenes Laertius in his Life of Theophrastus lists c. titles (.–). His surviving works include two multi-book treatises on botany, eight scientific opuscula, a short work on first principles (the so-called Metaphysics), a doxographical work on sense-perception and the Characters. Aside from the last, none of Theophrastus’ writings on ethical topics has survived intact, so that we must turn to secondary sources in order to gain knowledge of Theophrastus’ teachings on ethics. These sources (those that are printed in the text-translation volumes as against those that are listed in the apparatus of parallel texts) number . Some belong to the Roman Republic, while others belong to the Empire and the Middle Ages. Some source authors wrote in Greek, but there are also Latin and Arabic sources; even one in Italian. Moreover and most important, the sources vary greatly in their reliability. Late collections of excerpts and sayings must always be approached with caution, but even earlier, respected authors like Cicero and Plutarch may write in ways that are misleading. Each source author needs to be evaluated not only in regard to general reliability but also in regard to particular assertions in particular contexts. Most likely Diogenes’ catalogue of Theophrastean writings derives from the work On Theophrastus byHermippusofSmyrna(ndhalfofthe rd cent. bc). The catalogue divides into five lists plus two addenda. The lists probably represent different purchases by the library in Alexandria.
