About this product

Product Information

The De incessu animalium forms an integral part of Aristotle's biological corpus but is one of the least studied Aristotelian works both by ancient and modern interpreters. Yet it is a treatise where we can see, with some clarity and detail, Aristotle's methodology at work. This volume contains a new critical edition of the Greek text, an English translation, and nine in-depth interpretative essays. A general introduction that focuses on the explanatory strategies adopted by Aristotle in the De incessu animalium plus a historical essay on the reception of this work in antiquity and beyond open the volume. No other work of this kind has been published in any modern language.

Reviews
'There is much to learn from ... this volume, on both large and small issues of Aristotle's biology. All contributors are to be commended - especially Andrea Falcon, who seems to have done the lion's share of the work, both as a contributor and as an editor of this splendid book.'
