Series:
Philosophia Antiqua, Volume: 124
This collection of essays highlights Ancient, Byzantine and Medieval developments in the discussion of scientific method and argument in the comment(arie)s on Aristotle’s
Posterior Analytics and related methodological passages in the Aristotelian corpus. Despite the importance of these discussions, the larger part of the commentary tradition on the
Posterior Analytics still remains uncharted. The contributors to this volume identify and explore three important strands of interpretation, viz. (1) the reception of Aristotle’s logic of inquiry and theory of concept formation in
Posterior Analytics II 19; (2) the influence of the
Posterior Analytics on the evaluation of metaphysics as a science; and (3) the reception of Aristotle’s theory of demonstration, definition, and causation in
Posterior Analytics book II.

Studies in Ancient Philosophy
Editor-in-Chief:
F.A.J. de Haas
Philosophia Antiqua is the leading series specializing in books on Ancient Philosophy, covering the entire history of the subject from the Presocratics through Plato, Aristotle and the Stoics to the Neoplatonists of late Antiquity. The series has recently tended to emphasize areas that once used to be under-represented in the literature, for example Hellenistic philosophy, the skeptical tradition, Galen and other non-Platonist authors of later Antiquity, but this merely reflects a shifting focus in the field and is not a matter of deliberate policy. The over-riding concern of the series is to promote scholarship of the highest quality and originality, publishing work specifically oriented towards texts (editions, commentaries, translations), but also monographs, including both those that offer new readings of familiar – or less familiar – texts and those that explore the intersections between ancient and modern topics and approaches. Volumes are published in English, French and German. The series includes edited volumes that show a clear and coherent focus, but does not normally host Festschriften or Memorial volumes.
The series published an average of three volumes per year over the last 5 years.

Fragen zur Wechselwirkung von 'Musica' und 'Philosophia' im Mittelalter
Editor:
Hentschel
The medieval term
musica was used in a broader sense than the modern term
music. As a subject of the Quadrivium,
musica was a mathematical subject in its own right, which is foreign to modern musical thinking. As part of philosophy,
musica figured within a manifold network of sciences (e.g. Astronomy, Natural Philosophy) which since ca. 1200 were taught properly in the Faculty of Arts.
Containing articles by specialists in medieval music and philosophy, this volume highlights aspects of the emergence and theory of knowledge, and the appearance of more aesthetic conceptions of music.
