Neoplatonists on Substance: The Commentary by Ammonius and Asclepius on Aristotle's Metaphysics Book 7 (Zeta)

这个项目的目标是，首先，将亚里士多德的《形而上学》第7卷(齐塔人)现存的最早的评论翻译成现代语言。这篇评论是由Tralles的Asclepius在公元6世纪写下的，尽管是基于他的老师亚历山大的Ammonius Hermeiou的一系列讲座(约435/445-517/526 C.E.)。它在很大程度上被忽视了，但这种忽视是不公平的，因为它包含了很多有趣的东西，这个项目旨在通过使更广泛的读者能够接触到它来纠正这一点。该译本(英文版)将基于M.Hayduck编辑的文本(CAG VI，2[1888])，并已委托出版于著名的古代评论家关于亚里士多德的系列。这个项目的第二个目标是对阿斯克勒庇乌斯和阿莫尼乌斯(S)关于物质的描述进行明确的研究，特别是关注新柏拉图主义对他们思想的影响。这篇文章将发表在同行评议的期刊上，并将为出版的译本提供导言和学术注释。

The goal of this project is, firstly, to provide the first-ever translation into a modern language of the earliest surviving commentary on Book 7 (Zeta) of Aristotle’s Metaphysics. This commentary was written down by Asclepius of Tralles in the 6th century C.E. though based on a lecture series by his teacher, Ammonius Hermeiou of Alexandria (c. 435/445 –517/526 C.E.). It has been largely neglected, but this neglect is unjust as it contains much of interest, and this project aims to correct this by making it accessible to a wider readership. The translation (into English) will be based on text edited by M. Hayduck (CAG VI,2 [1888]) and has been commissioned for publication in the renowned Ancient Commentators on Aristotle series. The second aim of this project is to produce a definitive study of Asclepius’ and Ammonius’ account(s) of substance, with a particular focus on the Neoplatonic influence on their thought. This account will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and will inform the introduction and scholarly annotations of the published translation.
