Excerpt from Aristotle's Researches in Natural Science Aristotle's researches in Natural Science are set forth in a series of his works, some of which have already received a great deal of attention, while the rest have been much neglected. Translations, with or without explanatory notes, of all these works have been produced in English, French, German, or Latin, and separate treatises or papers discussing Aristotle's researches in one or more branches of Natural Science have been published from time to time. Among such treatises and papers may be mentioned J. Muller's Uber den glatten Hai des Aristoteles, &c., Berlin, 1842, a folio volume with six plates, relating, in part, to the placental cartilaginous fishes of Aristotle; J. B. Meyer's Aristoteles Thierkunde, Ein Beitrag zur Geschichte der Zoologie, Physiologic, und alten Philosophic, Berlin, 1855; H. Aubert's Die Cephalopoden des Aristoteles, &c., Lepzig, 1862, 39 pp.; C. J. Sundevall's Die Thierarten des Aristoteles von den Klassen der Saugethiere, Vogel, Reptilien und Insekten, Stockholm, 1863; G. H. Lewes' Aristotle: A Chapter from the History of Science, London, 1864; and Dr. J. Young's paper "On the Malacostraca of Aristotle," published in The Annals and Magazine of Natural History, 1865. There are also several works and papers which incidentally give valuable assistance in the study of Aristotle's researches in Natural Science, e.g. Cuvier and Valenciennes' Histoire Naturelle des Poissons, Paris, 1828-49; J. L. Ideler's Meteorologia veterum Gr corum et Romanorum, Berlin, 1832; Spratt and Forbes' Travels in Lycia, &c., London, 1847; Hoffman and Jordan's "Catalogue of the Fishes of Greece, with Notes on the Names now in Use, and those Employed by Classical Authors," published in the Proceedings of the Academy of Sciences of Philadelphia, for 1892; D'A. W. Thompson's Glossary of Greek Birds, Oxford, 1895; and T. Gill's "Parental Care among Freshwater Fishes," published in the Annual Report of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, 1906.

Excerpt from Aristotle: A Chapter From the History of Science, Including Analyses of Aristotle's Scientific Writings Numerous and exhaustive as are the works devoted to Aristotle's moral and metaphysical writings, there is not one which attempts to display, with any fulness, his scientific researches. The only considerable treatise which touches on this ground, is strictly confined within the limits of Natural History. Although Aristotle mainly represents the science of twenty centuries, his scientific writings are almost unknown in England. Casual citations, mostly at secondhand, and vague eulogies, often betraying great misconception, are abundant; but rare indeed is the indication of any accurate appreciation extending beyond two works, the De Anima, and the History of Animals. The absence of translations is at once a cause and a sign of this neglect. Of the 15 treatises analyzed in the present volume, only the two just named have been translated.

"This is the first volume devoted to the sections of the Aristotelian Mirabilia on natural science, filling a significant gap in the history of the Aristotelian study of nature and especially of animals. The chapters in this volume explore the Mirabilia, or De mirabilibus auscultationibus (On Marvelous Things Heard), and its engagement with the natural sciences. The first two chapters deliver an introduction to this work: one a discussion of the history of the text; the other a discussion of Aristotelian epistemology and methodology, and the role of the Mirabilia in that context. This is followed by eight chapters that, together, are effectively a commentary on those sections of the Mirabilia with close connections to Aristotle's Historia animalium and to a number of Theophrastus' scientific treatises. Finally, the volume ends with two chapters on thematic topics connected to natural science running throughout the work, namely color and disease. The Aristotelian Mirabilia and Early Peripatetic Natural Science should prove invaluable to scholars and students interested in the ancient Greek study of nature, ancient philosophy, and Aristotelian science in particular"--

This book explores the dynamics of the commentary and textbook traditions in Aristotelian natural philosophy under the headings of doctrine, method, and scientific and social status. It enquires what the evolution of the Aristotelian commentary tradition can tell us about the character of natural philosophy as a pedagogical tool, as a scientific enterprise, and as a background to modern scientific thought. In a unique attempt to cut old-fashioned historiographic divisions, it brings together scholars of ancient, medieval, Renaissance and seventeenth-century philosophy. The book covers a remarkably broad range of topics: it starts with the first Greek commentators and ends with Leibniz.

Aristotle argued that in theory one could acquire knowledge of the natural world. But he did not stop there; he put his theories into practice. This volume of new essays shows how Aristotle's natural science and philosophical theories shed light on one another. The contributors engage with both biological and non-biological scientific works and with a wide variety of theoretical works, including Physics, Generation and Corruption, On the Soul, and Posterior Analytics. The essays focus on a number of themes, including the sort of explanation provided by matter; the relationship between matter, teleology, and necessity; cosmic teleology; how an organism's soul and faculties relate to its end; how to define things such as sleep, void, and soul; and the proper way to make scientific judgments. The resulting volume offers a rich and integrated view of Aristotle's science and shows how it fits with his larger philosophical theories.
