This volume aims to reconstruct John Philoponus's lost commentary on the third book of On the soul , in which Aristotle discusses crucial arguments in his doctrine of the intellect. The first part of the volume presents the editio princeps of numerous Greek scholia deriving from Philoponus's commentary. The second part provides a complete retroversion into Greek of sections 4-8 of De anima III, which were preserved in a Latin translation by William of Moerbeke , while the third part offers a revised edition of relevant passages from the paraphrase of De anima by the Byzantine scholar Sophonias , who used Philoponus's commentary as a primary source.
