This volume contains an edition, together with a translation and a
commentary, of those parts relating to Aristotle's "Meteorologica
in Barhebraeus' "Butyrum sapientiae (Cream of Wisdom), the major
philosophical work of the thirteenth-century Syriac prelate and
polymath.
"Butyrum sapientiae, though based mainly on Ibn S?n?'s "Kit?b
al-if?? (Book of Healing), draws on a number of other sources. The
detailed analysis of the text provided in this volume casts some
important light on the manner in which Greek science and philosophy
were transmitted in the Orient and as such will be of interest to
scholars both of the Classical and Islamic world. The philological
analysis of the text will be of interest to scholars of Syriac
language and culture.
