UC125.1 (`textum moralis philosophie'):
Aristotle [384–322 BC]
L. Minio-Paluello in DSB 1. 267–81 (on tradition and influence).
Indexing Aristotle's works presents difficulties at several levels. He
wrote a great deal. The sources provide evidence at different periods for the
Greek text, multiple Latin translations from Arabic and from Greek, groupings
of individual works under familiar medieval titles, and a wide range of
pseudonymous texts. The descriptions provided by the sources are often
imprecise, especially as to which Latin translation was recorded. Since the
sixteenth century scholarly interest has focused on the Greek text rather than
on versions current in the middle ages. Only in recent decades has
Aristoteles Latinus attempted to document the Latin versions current at
different times, but its progress with editions has been slow. Recently
Aristoteles Latinus Database (ALD) has provided complementary material.
Since 1971 a separate series Aristoteles Semito-Latinus has aimed to edit
translations from Arabic. Where neither is not available, one must have
recourse either to major sixteenth-century printings of Latin (in cases where
they print the medieval versions) or to the earliest printed editions that may
themselves have been documented by our sources. The resulting index is
inevitably uneven. Thanks to Pieter de Leemans for his advice.
Ethica, tr. Robert Grosseteste
pr. Louvain 1476 (GW
2360), &c.; ed. R. A. Gauthier, AL 26/1–3 (1972–4), 141–370,
375–588 (two recensions, the second a revision by Moerbeke)).
Ethica noua (where specified) was an anonymous translation from the Greek
of Book I, circulating with Ethica uetus, a translation of Books II–III
(AL 26/2), both now attributed to Burgundio of Pisa.
