Abstract

The Catasterisms of Eratosthenes (276–194 BCE) contain two references to Aristotle, each including a title: Περὶ τῶν ζῴων (no. 34) and Περὶ θηρίων (no. 41). Editors of collections of Aristotle-fragments have included either or both of these references, but there has been little agreement over which lost work this material might come from. This note offers a fresh assessment of these two passages and concludes that the Aristotle-reference in Cat. 34 refers to passages in the Historia animalium, whereas the lost Zoïka is the most likely (but far from certain) source of the reference in Cat. 41.

论埃拉托斯特尼《卡塔斯特斯论》中的亚里士多德：对可能来源的评估

埃拉托色尼（Eratosthenes，公元前 276-194 年）的 Catasterisms 中有两处提到亚里士多德，每处都包括一个标题：Περὶ τῶν ζῴων（第 34 号）和Περὶ θηρίων（第 41 号）。亚里士多德片段集的编辑们曾将其中的一个或两个参考文献收录其中，但对于这些材料可能来自哪部失传的作品却鲜有一致意见。本说明对这两个段落进行了全新的评估，并得出结论：Cat.34 中的亚里士多德参考文献指的是《历史》中的段落。34 中的亚里士多德参考文献指的是《动物史》中的段落，而失传的《佐伊卡》最有可能是 Cat.41.

期刊介绍： Classical Philology has been an internationally respected journal for the study of the life, languages, and thought of the Ancient Greek and Roman world since 1906. CP covers a broad range of topics from a variety of interpretative points of view. CP welcomes both longer articles and short notes or discussions that make a significant contribution to the study of Greek and Roman antiquity. Any field of classical studies may be treated, separately or in relation to other disciplines, ancient or modern. In particular, we invite studies that illuminate aspects of the languages, literatures, history, art, philosophy, social life, and religion of ancient Greece and Rome. Innovative approaches and originality are encouraged as a necessary part of good scholarship.
