Talk:Alexander of Aphrodisias

Untitled

I'll go back and review my copy again, it has been a while, but as I learned it On The Soul was a direct commentary on Aristotle's De Anima, and not a pure original work. Although that is a bit of a funny thing to say I realize. --Domhail 07:52, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

I added Sharples commentary and translation of De Fato, and will add something of Alexander on Chance and Necessity. Cmsreview (talk) 14:48, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

"Dark Band of Alexander" around the rainbow

The dark zone between the outer edge of the (main) rainbow and the inner edge od the secondary rainbow ist namend - at least in German: "Alexanders dunkles Band": See http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_von_Aphrodisias . --Helium4 (talk) 17:31, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, and this is mentioned at Alexander_of_Aphrodisias#Influence with a link to Alexander's band. Wareh (talk) 13:23, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Which Aphrodisias?

The doubt raised in footnote 1 has now surely been put to rest by the inscription referred to in footnotes 6 and 7? --Northutsire (talk) 09:02, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Good point - might as well remove the outdated footnote, rather than leave it in the page as an example of what people once didn't know about him. Pasicles (talk) 19:23, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
