About the Author
Dimitri Gutas, PhD (1975) in Arabic and Islamic Studies, Yale University, is Professor of Arabic at Yale. He has published on the medieval Graeco-Arabic translation movement and its lexicography, the transmission of Greek philosophical texts into Arabic, and Arabic philosophy.
Review
"Gutas has brought his thorough knowledge of this period and movement to bear on one short philosophical text that has already attracted the scrutiny of Greek and Arabic scholars alike, although hardly in the comparative detail and practical usefulness evident in this present work." By Adam McCollum, in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2011.11.31
"La richesse de l'édition en fait un ouvrage susceptible de s'adresser à un public plus large qu'il n'y paraît, par delà les seuls spécialistes d'Aristote et de Théophraste. Le glossaire grec-arabe, par exemple, se révélera utitle tant aux traducteurs des textes grecs qu'aux spécialistes de philosophie arabe médiévale. L'étudiant anglophone y lira une traduction accessible. Tout ceux enfin qu'intéresse la métaphisique en général retrouveront un de ses hauts lieux d'élaboration." Gweltaz Guyomarc'h, in Revue philosophique de Louvain 1/2012
