Rate this book
Alexander von Aphrodisias war der bedeutendste Kommentator der aristotelischen Werke der Antike. Seine Methode galt fur alle Nachfolger als massgeblich und trug ihm den Spitznamen 'der Exeget' und 'der zweite Aristoteles' ein. Der vorliegende Band enthalt den von ihm verfassten ersten der drei uberlieferten griechischen Kommentare zur Meteorologie des Aristoteles (es folgten Olympiodoros der Jungere und Johannes Philoponos), dessen Einfluss uber die mittelalterliche Philosophie (Thomas von Aquin) bis hin zur Renaissance (Alexander Piccolomineus) reicht. Von besonderem Interesse ist dabei die umstrittene Interpretation des Bruches im aristotelischen Originaltext zwischen den Buchern I-III und IV.
