This volume completes, starting from chapter 6, the commentary by
the young Philoponus on Aristotle’s Categories, of which chapters
1–5 were previously published in this series (Philoponus: On
Aristotle Categories 1–5 with Philoponus: A Treatise Concerning
the Whole and the Parts). This ancient commentary was the first
work in the Aristotelian syllabus after a general introduction to
Aristotle by the same author. It is influenced by an extant short
anonymous record of Philoponus’ teacher Ammonius’ lectures on
the same work, but Philoponus’ commentary is two and a half times
as long as that anonymous record, and includes special
contributions of Philoponus’ own, for example in philology,
Christian theology and in disagreements with Aristotle. This
English translation of Philoponus' work is the latest volume in the
Ancient Commentators on Aristotle series and makes this
philosophical work accessible to a modern readership. The
translation is accompanied by an introduction, comprehensive
commentary notes, bibliography, glossary of translated terms and a
subject index.
