The commentary on Aristotle's "On Generation and Corruption" (Kitab al-kawn wa-l-fasad, lat. De generatione et corruptione) by Ibn Bagga has attracted scant attention so far. This happened primarily for two reasons. The first one is the complicated nature of the Aristotelian text, which addresses a number of key notions in Aristotle’s physics, but at a high level of abstraction. The second reason is that Ibn Bagga's commentaries in general have been eclipsed in subsequent scholarship by the commentaries of Averroes (Arabic: Ibn Rusd). Nevertheless, the importance of Ibn Bagga's commentaries in Averroes' thought is undeniable. The latter extensively quotes from Ibn Bagga's works, adopts his ideas or rejects them. More importantly, Ibn Bagga's commentary is interesting in its own right, inasmuch as it quite often, instead of merely following Aristotle, presents different examples and develops ideas of its own.
The extant parts of Ibn Bagga's commentary are preserved in two manuscripts and comprise a consecutive exposition of the contents of the two books of De generatione et corruptione. The present critical edition provides for the first time a study of the structure of the commentary from the available witnesses. It reproduces the original in such a way that the reader will be able not only to assess the judgments made by the editor but also to reconstruct the two source manuscripts from the edited text.
Despite its importance in the history of Ancient science, Menelaus' Spherics is still by and large unknown. This treatise, which lies at the foundation of spherical geometry, is lost in Greek but has been preserved in its Arabic versions. The reader will find here, for the first time edited and translated into English, the essentials of this tradition, namely: a fragment of an early Arabic translation and the first Arabic redaction of the Spherics composed by al-Māhānī /al-Harawī, together with a historical and mathematical study of Menelaus' treatise. With this book, a new and important part of the Greek and Arabic legacy to the history of mathematics comes to light. This book will be an indispensable acquisition for any reader interested in the history of Ancient geometry and science and, more generally, in Greek and Arabic science and culture.

This book offers for the first time a comprehensive study of the reception and reworking of the Peripatetic theory of the soul in the Kitab al-Nafs (Book of the Soul) by Avicenna (d. 1037). This study seeks to frame Avicenna’s science of the soul (or psychology) by focusing on three key concepts: subject, definition, and activity. The examination of these concepts will disclose the twofold consideration of the soul in Avicenna’s psychology. Besides the ‘general approach’ to the soul of sublunary living beings, which is the formal principle of the body, Avicenna’s psychology also exhibits a ‘specific orientation’ towards the soul in itself, i.e. the human rational soul that, considered in isolation from the body, is a self-subsistent substance, identical with the theoretical intellect and capable of surviving severance from the body. These two investigations demonstrate the coexistence in Avicenna’s psychology of a more specific and less physical science (psychologia specialis) within a more general and overall physical one (psychologia generalis).
Описание: The series is devoted to the study of scientific and philosophical texts from the Classical and the Islamic world handed down in Arabic. Through critical text editions and monographs, it provides access to ancient scientific inquiry as it developed in a continuous tradition from Antiquity to the modern period. All editions are accompanied by translations and philological and explanatory notes.
Описание: Aristotle's theory of eternal continuous motion and his argument from everlasting change and motion to the existence of an unmoved primary cause of motion, provided in book VIII of his Physics, is one of the most influential and persistent doctrines of ancient Greek philosophy. Nevertheless, the exact wording of Aristotle's discourse is doubtful and contentious at many places. The present critical edition of Ishaq ibn Hunayn's Arabic translation (9th c.) is supposed to replace the faulty edition by A. Badawi and aims at contributing to the clarification of these textual difficulties by means of a detailed collation of the Arabic text with the most important Greek manuscripts, supported by comprehensive Greek and Arabic glossaries.
