Notes:

Contains the "common" Latin translation of the Prior and Posterior analytics, the Topics and the De sophisticis elenchis. The translations have been attributed to Boethius or to a Jacobus de Venetia, but seem to be by neither. Cf. G. Lacombe, Aristoteles latinus, I, p. 45-49.

The work also includes the commentary of Lambert von Heerenberg (De Monte Domini). Lambert's work is based on the work of his predecessors at Cologne, Gerardus de Monte, Gerardus de Elten, Henricus van Gorkum and Henricus de Orsoe. Cf. C.H. Lohr, "Medieval Latin Aristotle commentaries," Traditio 27 (1971), p. 310-311.
