In a section of the corpus Aristotelicum that was not part of the standard curriculum at the medieval university, the commentary of Pietro d?Abano investigates the complex relationship between text, translation, and commentary. The eight articles in this volume provide valuable insights into the manner in which Pietro d?Abano deals with the problems of a translated text. They emphasize the idiosyncrasy of his approach in comparison to his contemporaries and successors, the particularities of his commentary in light of the habitual exegetical practices applied in the teaching of curricular texts, as well as the influence of philosophical traditions outside the strict framework of the medieval arts faculty Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and indexes Notes Contributions in English and French; contributions in English have French summaries, contributions in French have English summaries Print version record Subject Petrus, de Abano, approximately 1250-approximately 1315.
