Chapter 9 of Aristotle's "On Interpretation" deals with
determinism, and here the two influential commentaries of Ammonius
and Boethius have been published together. These are crucial works,
for Ammonuis' commentary influenced the Islamic Middle Ages, while
that of Boethius was of equal importance to medieval Latin-speaking
philosophers. It was once argued that Boethius was influenced by
Ammonius, and this work aims to show that this was clearly not the
case. Ammonius draws on the fourth- and fifth-century Neoplatonists
Iamblichus, Syrianus and Proclus. He arranges his argument around
three major deterministic arguments and is our main source for one
of them, the Reaper argument. Boethius, on the other hand, draws on
controversies from 300 years earlier between Stoics and
Aristotelians as recorded by Alexander of Aphrodisias and Porphyry.
