Commentary and Tradition

The volume collects the most important papers Pierluigi Donini wrote in the last three decades with the aim of promoting a better assessment of post-hellenistic philosophy. By focusing on the mutual confrontation with Plato s and Aristotle s texts for the development of both Aristotelianism and Platonism, Donini s papers provide the readers with an overall account of the philosophy of the commentators and argue for its importance for the history of the European thought.
