Aristotle Categoriae et Liber de Interpretatione.

One of Aristotle's logic treatises, this text is published in the Oxford Classical Text series.

The surviving textual tradition of the Topics and Elenchi down to A.D. 1503 includes, as far as we know: Greek texts: a small papyrus fragment, c. A.D. 100; over a hundred Greek manuscripts, from c. A.D. 900 onwards; the Aldine ‘editio princeps’, A.D. 1495; commentaries, paraphrases, and scholia; notably: Alexander of Aphrodisias on Top., c. A.D. 200; John Italos on Top. 2–4, 11th century; Michael of Ephesus on EL, 11th century; Sophonias on EL., c.,. A.D. 1300; Leo Magentenus on Top., (...) 14th century. (shrink)

Burent's and Robin's collations of W differ for the text of the Phaedo in about 130 readings of a more than orthographical interest.✝ A new inspection of the manuscript has shown that Robin very often corrected Burnet, but added some twenty mistakes. The actual readings of W and of its second handW2 are given in the following list; each of them is followed, after a colon, by Burnet's and Robin's misreadings. The Stephanus numeration refers to Burnet's edition.

The Latin versions of Aristotle's Categoriae have never received much attention from the editors of the Greek text. J. Th. Buhle and Th. Waitz availed themselves of Latin texts, but in a very unsatisfactory way; and since them the Latin field has remained unexplored throughout the last hundred years, in which both Hellenists and Orientalists have done much to increase our knowledge of the textual tradition of the Categ. It is the purpose of these pages to give a summary account (...) of the Latin tradition and to contribute to a revision of the Greek text by a collation of Boethius' recently discovered translation with the best printed Greek and Oriental sources.
