Summary:

This volume is the first complete critical edition of Peter of Auvergne?s 'Questiones super I-VII libros Politicorum'. The 'Questiones' was produced at the Faculty of Arts of Paris sometime between late 1291 and 1296 and is the earliest surviving commentary in question form on Aristotle?s 'Politics'. As the introduction explains, the 'Questiones' was philosophically innovative and became the most influential question-commentary on the 'Politics' in the Middle Ages. The volume also includes a critical edition of an earlier oral report (reportatio) of Peter?s teaching on Books I-II and part of III which became the basis for those sections of the 'Questiones'.0This volume is of interest to scholars of medieval philosophy and the history of political thought and is a reference point for future research on the medieval reception of Aristotle?s 'Politics' and medieval Aristotelian practical philosophy more broadly.
