Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A handsome and increasingly uncommon first edition of this substantial reference work devoted entirely to the language, concepts, and writings of Aristotle. Designed as a scholarly companion for students and researchers, the volume gathers definitions, quotations, and cross-references drawn from Aristotle's corpus, with citations to the standard Bekker edition and translations by H. E. Wedeck, T. Taylor, and others. Theodore E. James contributes an informative introduction surveying Aristotle's life and intellectual development, making this an important mid-century reference for classical philosophy and the history of Western thought. Complete with bibliography and comprehensive alphabetical dictionary entries, it remains a useful research tool and an attractive shelf copy.
