Aristotle

Autor Aristotle
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 feb 2017
This new collection of Aristotle's political writings provides the student with all the necessary materials for a full understanding of his work as a political scientist. Not only does it offer an unusually lucid and accessible account of The Politics, it also shows the relation between this and his studies as a constitutional historian. Only one of Aristotle's many constitutions - The Constitution of Athens -has survived and this is now presented here alongside The Politics so that the student can appreciate both the empirical and the theoretical aspects of Aristotle's political science. This expanded Cambridge Texts edition contains an extensive guide to further reading and an index of names with biographical notes, in addition to a revised and extended introduction. Presentation of The Politics and The Constitution of Athens in a single volume will make this the most attractive and convenient student edition of these seminal works currently available.

Recenzii

"[Aristotle: Complete Works] is a successor of sorts to the so-called Oxford Aristotle, edited by Jonathan Barnes and published in 1984. As Barnes notes in the introduction to that work, most of the translations in that volume were completed between 1908 and 1930. . . . So, it seems entirely fitting that the massive project of translating all the extant works of Aristotle be revisited after, for the most part, more than a hundred years. 
      "There are many ways, large and small, that the Hackett Aristotle differs from and surpasses the Oxford Aristotle. The Hackett Aristotle does not contain the dubious and spurious works attributed to Aristotle in the Berlin Academy edition of the Greek texts by Immanuel Bekker (1831) whereas the Oxford Aristotle does. The editors, however, promise to include these in a future companion volume. Apart from this, the [Hackett Aristotle] volumes contain a detailed table of contents, including the major subject divisions of each of the works; a substantial (79 pages) introduction to Aristotle and the Aristotelian corpus by Christof Rapp; a catalog of the lists of works attributed to Aristotle in antiquity cross-referenced to what is now taken as the standard list of Diogenes Laertius; an expansive and welcome annotated glossary of terms (134 pages); a convenient table of weights and measures; and an annotated index of all the names and places mentioned in the corpus.
     "Most of the major works of Aristotle are translated by Reeve himself, based on previous single volume translations he has published with Hackett. The division of labor between the two editors is given in the Preface as follows: ‘C.D.C., Reeve established the norms of translation and edited the translations not credited to him, ensuring—among other things—that they follow these norms. Pavlos Kontos was responsible for the final editing of all the translations and for ensuring their accuracy and correctness. Everything else was a joint responsibility.'
     "Reeve et al. have committed themselves to making Aristotle more accessible to the contemporary English-speaking audience than does Barnes and the other authors of the Oxford Aristotle. I think readers will appreciate the ample paragraphing in the former compared to sometimes page-long paragraphs in the latter. In addition, Reeve presents what seems to me a more vivid and direct colloquial English than does his predecessors.
     "As one would expect, these translations, almost all of which were produced by senior Aristotle scholars, and having benefited by their authors’ own revisions and support from many critical and experienced eyes, are highly reliable.
     "[T]hese two volumes constitute a notable achievement. The forthcoming translation of the dubia and spuria is eagerly awaited."
—Lloyd P. Gerson, University of Toronto, in Ancient Philosophy
