Summary
This volume contains the two medieval translations of Aristotle's Rhetoric. The Translatio Vetus is anonymous (1). It seems, however, that its author belonged to the circle of Bartholomew of Messina. The most widespread translation of this work stems from William of Moerbeke (2). Once more, the editor has revealed the existence of two chronologically distinct versions in William's text, and the variant readings of the earlier version are displayed in the critical apparatus.
