Averroes and the Aristotelian Tradition: Sources, Constitution, and Reception of the Philosophy of Ibn Rushd (1126-1198): Proceedings of the Fourth Symposium Averroicum, Cologne, 1996

Abstract

Averroes the philosopher was the Commentator of Aristotle. In this, the project of his life coincided with the perception of his contemporary readers and with the esteem governing four centuries of European Aristotelianism. It has been the purpose of the Fourth Symposium Averroicum to contribute to a better understanding of this philosophy: both on the basis of Averroes' works and in the light of his sources. The Symposium, held in conjunction with the Sixth Editors Conference of the Averrois Opera, brought together scholars and researchers on Averroes and adjacent areas. Their contributions are presented in four section: the project of Averroes; Averroes and the Hellenistic Commentators; Averroes, the Commentator; Averroes and the Latin tradition.
