The Poetics of Aristotle: Classic Edition (illustrated)Īristotle Collection: Nicomachean Ethics, Politics, Rhetoric, PoeticsĪristotle's Poetics: Translated and with a commentary by George Whalley (Volume 9) By including these commentaries-and his own insightful notes-along with Aristotle's own words, Taylor brings to life the works of Aristotle, as part of the living Platonic tradition, extended across the centuries.Sales Rank Publication Date Lowest New Price Second, Taylor includes extensive excerpts from the surviving Platonic commentaries on Aristotle, particularly the works of Simplicius, which are otherwise difficult or costly to obtain in English translation. Like the great writers of the ancient Neoplatonic schools, Taylor saw Aristotle as a Platonist, and so he translated and explained Aristotle from that perspective. While other translations also have their own scholarly and literary merits, they often lack the depth of Taylor’s, because the subtle truths embedded in Platonic writings are only understood after careful and profound meditation. Thomas Taylor's translations of the complete works of Aristotle-the first complete set of such translations to be produced in English-have two great advantages for the modern reader: First, Taylor works from within the Platonic tradition, of which he himself was a convinced follower.
