About this Item

pp. 3-18. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Binding rubbed and lightly stained, author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise good and clean. - From the text: [1] For if, he says, [a] everything is always at rest when it is at a place equal to itself [.], [b] and the moving object is always [sc. at a place equal to itself] in the "now" [.], then the arrow in motion is motionless. (Aristotle, Phys. 239B5-7; for the text see Ross 657-58). [2] Zeno argues thus: [a] A moving thing moves either [A] in the place in which it is or [B] in the place in which it is not. [b] But it moves neither [A] in the place in which it is, nor [B] in the place in which it is not. Therefore, nothing moves. (Epiphanius, Adv. Haer. 3, 11; H. Diels, Doxo-graphi Graeci, 590).
