This volume presents a panorama of Syriac engagement with
Aristotelian philosophy primarily situated in the 6th to the 9th
centuries, but also ranging to the 13th. It offers a wide range of
articles, opening with surveys on the most important philosophical
writers of the period before providing detailed studies of two
Syriac prolegomena to Aristotle's Categories and examining the
works of Hunayn, the most famous Arabic translator of the 9th
century. Watt also examines the relationships between philosophy,
rhetoric and political thought in the period, and explores the
connection between earlier Syriac tradition and later Arabic
philosophy in the thought of the 13th century Syriac polymath Bar
Hebraeus. Collected together for the first time, these articles
present an engaging and thorough history of Aristotelian philosophy
during this period in the Near East, in Syriac and Arabic.
