内容説明・目次
内容説明
" . . . a critical edition based on the three known manuscripts, and translation of a gnomologium entitled Mukhtar min kalam al-hukama' al-arba`a, which contains sayings ascribed to Pythgagoras, Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. Parallel versions from closely related gnomologia have been collated and noted in the apparatus. In the next section, a commentary on each individual saying and parallel versions in a large number of Arabic texts, both published and manuscript, are noted and discussed. [ . . . ] The Greek originals are, as far as they could be found, quoted and discussed within the tradition of Greek gnomologia." (from a review in Journal of Near Eastern Studies, volume 37, no.2)
The book includes the Arabic text of the gnomologium, and an English translation, on facing pages.
A paperback reprint of the original 1975 book, with a new Foreword, and with errata and corrections.
