This book is a full study of the remaining evidence for Xenarchus
of Seleucia, one of the earliest interpreters of Aristotle. Andrea
Falcon places the evidence in its context, the revival of interest
in Aristotle's philosophy that took place in the first century BCE.
Xenarchus is often presented as a rebel, challenging Aristotle and
the Aristotelian tradition. Falcon argues that there is more to
Xenarchus and his philosophical activity than an opposition to
Aristotle; he was a creative philosopher, and his views are best
understood as an attempt to revise and update Aristotle's
philosophy. By looking at how Xenarchus negotiated different
aspects of Aristotle's philosophy, this book highlights elements of
rupture as well as strands of continuity within the Aristotelian
tradition.
