In various places of his extensive production the fifteenth-century littérateur and occultist ‘Abd al-Raḥmān al-Bisṭāmī (d. 858/1454) presents a classification of the sciences in the form of a tree. In this paper we discuss four variants of this ‘tashjīr’ representation from four different works of al-Bisṭāmī as they have come down to us in manuscripts. We compare these diagrams with one another, discuss their respective textual environments, and bring al-Bisṭāmī’s arboreal representations in line with the classification of the sciences of the Ikhwān al-Ṣafā’, their obvious source. By putting this tashjīr representation side by side with other examples of tree-shaped science classifications inside and outside the Islamic world, we seek to better assess al-Bisṭāmī’s original contribution in turning the Ikhwān’s system of organizing knowledge into a tree-shaped diagram.
在他的广泛生产的不同地方,15世纪的利特·海姆斯特和神秘主义者' Abd al-Raḥmān al-Bisṭāmī(公元858/1454年)提出了一个分类的形式的树的科学。在本文中,我们讨论了来自al-Bisṭāmī的四部不同作品的“tashjj”表示的四种变体,因为它们在手稿中流传下来。我们将这些图表相互比较,讨论它们各自的文本环境,并使al-Bisṭāmī的树状表示与它们明显的来源Ikhwān al-Ṣafā '的科学分类相一致。通过将这个tashjj (r)表示与伊斯兰世界内外的其他树形科学分类的例子放在一起,我们试图更好地评估al-Bisṭāmī将Ikhwān的知识组织系统转化为树形图的原始贡献。

El presente artículo se dirige a examinar desde lo filosófico la relación entre el concepto de estatalidad, jus belli y guerra privada a partir de la distinción de dos momentos analíticos. El primero de ellos se centra en la evolución de los conceptos filosóficos que hicieron posible la aparición del Estado soberano moderno; el segundo en el proceso de crisis que tales conceptos parecen sufrir en la actualidad. En ambos casos, la guerra privada está en el centro de la cuestión. Más precisamente, sostenemos la tesis de que la guerra privada está en el origen de la magnitud estatal y de los signos actuales de su declinación. Si el Estado moderno representó en esencia lo que llamaremos una “personificación del jus belli”, el reverso de esta tesis deviene un paso obligado en una reflexión que no sabría ceñirse al solo interés histórico dentro de su campo disciplinario. A este respecto, nuestro trabajo se mueve fundamentalmente bajo dos interrogantes, a saber: ¿el proceso de des-personificación del jus belli podría conducir a la desaparición de las diferenciaciones forjadas durante más de tres siglos? ¿La “nueva condotta” puede ser interpretada como un intento de simetrización de lo bélico ante actores que practican la guerra sin responder a una lógica estatal?

The note surveys the reception history of Robert Grosseteste's Latin translation of Aristotle's De Caelo and of Simplicius's commentary on the same treatise. It presents the analysis of previously unnoticed fragments from a second manuscript of the translation. Their discovery necessitates the revision of earlier ideas about the limited dissemination of the text. The note also confirms a neglected hypothesis about the Greek model that Grosseteste used for his translation. A late-15th-century manuscript must be considered a direct copy of Grosseteste's lost Greek codex.

Roberto Zambiasi
The article reviews in an extended and critical way Roland Betancourt, Sight, Touch, and Imagination in Byzantium, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge 2018. After putting the book in the context of contemporary scholarship on Byzantine theories of vision, the article sketches the structure and contents of the book (together with its methodology), before moving on to a critical discussion of the interpretation of some important Late Antique and Byzantine theories of vision advanced by Betancourt, especially that of Galen, together with its reception in Nemesios of Emesa and in the later Byzantine world (focusing on its relation with the Eucharistic theology and Christology of Nicholas Kabasilas). The article ends by stressing the value of Betancourt's book insofar as the wealth of material it collects will allow scholars to deepen and enrich the study of Byzantine theories of vision.

This article takes its point of departure in a puzzle in the little studied De generatione et corruptione commentary by Spanish Dominican Domingo Báñez, first published in 1585. Specifically, five times in the work, Báñez takes as his opponent an otherwise unidentified novus philosophus or novus author. Using parallel texts, I show Báñez’s novus philosophus was none other than the Jesuit Franciscus Toletus. I then trace some of the background to one of the issues on which Báñez criticizes Franciscus: the issue of whether or not human rational souls are equal to one another in terms of substantial perfection. The central place of Thomas de Vio Cajetan in the dispute between the Dominican and the Jesuit quickly becomes clear. In an appendix, I offer complete question lists of the relevant natural philosophical works by Franciscus from which Báñez quotes or paraphrases, i.e. Franciscus’s Physics, De generatione, and De anima commentaries.
本文的出发点是西班牙人多明尼加·多明戈(dominingo)在1585年首次出版的《代与腐败》(De generation et corruptionone)评论中一个很少被研究的谜题。具体地说,在作品中,Báñez有五次把一个未知的新哲学家或新作者作为他的对手。使用平行文本,我表明Báñez的新哲学不是别人,正是耶稣会士弗朗西斯·托莱托斯。然后,我追溯了一些背景,其中一个问题,Báñez批评弗朗西斯:问题是否人类的理性灵魂是平等的,在实质性的完善方面。在多明尼加和耶稣会士之间的争论中,托马斯·德·维奥·卡耶坦的中心地位很快变得清晰起来。在附录中,我提供了有关弗朗西斯的自然哲学著作的完整问题列表,Báñez引用或改写了弗朗西斯的物理,生成和动物评论。
