Aristotle on How Animals Move : The De incessu animalium: Text, Translation, and Interpretative Essays, Hardback Book

Aristotle on How Animals Move : The De incessu animalium: Text, Translation, and Interpretative Essays Hardback

Edited by Andrea (Concordia University, Montreal) Falcon, Stasinos (University of Patras, Greece) Stavrianeas

Hardback

Description

The De incessu animalium forms an integral part of Aristotle's biological corpus but is one of the least studied Aristotelian works both by ancient and modern interpreters.

Yet it is a treatise where we can see, with some clarity and detail, Aristotle's methodology at work.

This volume contains a new critical edition of the Greek text, an English translation, and nine in-depth interpretative essays.

A general introduction that focuses on the explanatory strategies adopted by Aristotle in the De incessu animalium plus a historical essay on the reception of this work in antiquity and beyond open the volume.

No other work of this kind has been published in any modern language.
