He quotes at length from \u003ci\u003eMelissus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eParmenides\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eZeno,\u003c\/i\u003e sometimes from their original works but also from later writers from Plato onwards, drawing particularly on Alexander's lost commentary on Aristotle's \u003ci\u003ePhysics\u003c\/i\u003e and on \u003ci\u003ePorphyry\u003c\/i\u003e. Much of his approach is just scholarly, but in places he reveals his Neoplatonist affiliation and attempts to show the basic agreement among his predecessors in spite of their apparent differences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume, part of the groundbreaking \u003ci\u003eAncient Commentators on Aristotle\u003c\/i\u003e series, translates into English for the first time Simplicius' commentary, and includes a detailed introduction, extensive explanatory notes and a bibliography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePamela Huby\u003c\/b\u003e is former Senior Lecturer at the University of Liverpool, UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eC.C.W.
