Along with five other types of introductions (three of which are translated in the Ancient Commentators on Aristotle volume Elias and David: Introductions to Philosophy with Olympiodorus: Introduction to Logic) it made Greek philosophy more accessible to other cultures. These introductions became standard in Ammonius' school and included a popular set of five or more definitions of philosophy, some of them drawn from commentaries on quite different works. Ammonius' lecture expounded the most celebrated and discussed previous introduction written by Porphyry 200 years earlier, which was devoted to five main technical terms of Aristotle's logic. Ammonius was sympathetic to Porphyry because they both sought to harmonise the views of Plato and Aristotle with each other, arguing in different ways that the two philosophers did not disagree about the nature of universals. Porphyry's introduction was a hugely influential work for centuries after its composition, and this commentary by Ammonius served to maintain its position at the centre of later schools of philosophy. This English translation of Ammonius' 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. 588 0 Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on September 13, 2019). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 00 Porphyry,|dapproximately 234-approximately 305.|tIsagoge |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no98124862|vEarly works to 1800.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001366 600 00 Aristotle.|tCategoriae|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/nr96035857|vCommentaries|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001404|vEarly works to 1800. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001366 600 00 Porphyry,|dapproximately 234-approximately 305.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81124456 600 00 Aristotle.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79004182 600 07 Porphyry,|dapproximately 234-approximately 305.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1802571 600 07 Aristotle.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/29885 630 07 Categoriae (Aristotle)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1357313 630 07 Isagoge (Porphyry)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1356577 650 0 Philosophy, Ancient.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85100861 650 7 Philosophy, Ancient.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1060860 655 7 Commentaries.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423723 655 7 Early works.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411636 700 1 Chase, Michael,|d1959-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2006111230|etranslator. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aChase, Michael.|tAmmonius: Interpretation of Porphyry's Introduction to Aristotle's Five Terms.|dLondon : Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, ©2019 |z9781350089228 830 0 Ancient commentators on Aristotle.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n86717704 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2231023|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
