Aristotle is generally considered as a philosopher whose authority characterized the Middle Ages. However, in the sixteenth century alone, more works on Aristotle than throughout the preceding 1000 years were produced. Moreover, the medieval Latin translations were supplanted by new texts. Thus, the entire corpus was made accessible in contemporary Latin before 1600. The whole of Aristotle's oeuvre was subjected to the philosophical reorientation of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries; eventually the new readings of his works influenced contemporary thought. In thirteen articles, the authors discuss the changing interpretations of Aristotle's works and his influence in various disciplines, from Dante to the seventeenth century.

This review is from: Renaissance Readings of the Corpus Aristotelicum: Papers from the Conference Held in Copenhagen 23-2 (Renssance Studier, 9.) (Paperback)
The essays in this collection are mostly in English with two in Italian. They are well edited and represent readable discussions of the impact upon studies of Aristotle during the Renaissance revival of new sources for Greek commentaries of the Philosopher and the Greek text without the intervention of Averroes.
