"In the long process of assimilation into Latin of the Greek and Arabic corpus of natural philosophy there was a constant tendency for earlier material to be incorporated into later and thus lose its identity. But the earlier works often persisted even though in disguised form and constituted a permanent element of our intellectual heritage. Sometimes modern scholarship has been able to rescue an earlier author from anonymity and to delineate his significance in the growth of Western thought. One such author is Alfred of Sareshel also known as Alfredus Anglicus. The rediscovery of Alfred has been the work of many scholars whose writings have shown Alfred to have been a translator from the Arabic a commentator on Aristotle's natural philosophy and the author of a treatise DE MOTU CORDIS which was incorporated into the curricula of many universities in the thirteenth century. Alfred also emerges as one of the most important and oldest witnesses for the reception of the natural philosophy of Aristotle and for the oldest Greek-La tin translations. He has been called by D. A. Callus "a forerunner of the great commentators" and CI. Baeumker asserts that his knowledge of Aristotle is unmatched by any schoolman of the early thirteenth century. The purpose of this paper is to show Alfred's role in the reacquisition of Aristotle's natural philosophy by examining his commentary on Aristotle's METHEORA to show specifically the sources for Alfred's commentary Latin Greek Arabic; and to indicate how he employed them." / Otte.

1783réf. 10489Paris: Chez la Veuve DeSaint 1783. FIRST EDITION IN FRENCH. Including half-titles approbation and privilege du Roi. Volume I with the Greek and French translations on facing pages. Contemporary tree calf some wear to joints and corners; marbled edges some light waterstains in first volume. From the library of George Milton Smith with his bookplate.`. First edition. Camus' translation of Aristotle's descriptive zoology from Greek into French is a masterpiece of scholarship. This highly esteemed translation is much sought after for its extensive erudite commentaries and profound enlightenment of comparative anatomy. Divided into two books the first volume contains Aristotle's original Greek with Camus' French translation facing. Here he documents all the various manuscripts editions and translators cited in the work. The second volume a detailed study of natural history up to the modern time contains Camus' careful observations on the commentaries of other translators. This work is of particular importance for Camus' nomenclature of those living creatures originally described in Aristotle's account. He lists all of the animals found in Aristotle works including those "fanciful and primitive" and then details the differences in terms of the modern knowledge of natural history. So great was the influence of Aristotle that his teachings and thought were accepted and enlarged upon for nearly two millennia. He was acquainted with more than five hundred species of animals and had dissected and investigated in detail at least fifty kinds ranging over the entire animal kingdom. Many of his conclusions have stood the test of time. Among them may be mentioned his descriptions of the mechanisms of locomotion of the process of digestion in ruminants of the habits of bees of the mechanism of animal reproduction; his exposition of analogous structures in living bodies; and his methods of biological classification Eimas Heirs of Hippocrates 14. Camus 1740-1804 French revolutionist was a successful advocate before the Revolution. In 1789 he was elected by the third estate of Paris to the states general and attracted attention by his speeches against social inequalities. He was named archivist to the Constituent Assembly and in that capacity he organized the national archives and classified the papers of the different assemblies of the Revolution. He was restored to the office in 1796 and became absorbed in literary work. He remained an austere republican refusing to take part in the Napoleonic regime. This scarce work was included in Thomas Jefferson's library. Chez la Veuve DeSaint unknown books

Usually attributed to Aristotle it is now thought to be the work of the peripatetic scholar and pupil of Aristotle Theophrastus.''As the author states at the end of the treatise it is intended rather to supply data for a detailed examination into the scientific theory of colour than to expound a complete thesis. He has realized that the development of colour in animals and plants depends to some extent on heat and he seems to suggest that heat and moisture are the controlling factors. It is of more value as a collection of observed facts than for any theory of the origin and development of colour in physical life'' Aristotle Minor Works Cambridge and London Loeb Classical Library 1936 p. 3.With some spotting on the title-page and some marginal tears not approaching the text but otherwise in very good condition and with large margins.
