One peculiar feature of Golitsis’ review (BMCR 2013), apart from the fact that he does not argue for his views (which makes discussion difficult), is that I have hardly expressed any opinions he opposes, either in the book under consideration or in my 2010 article. Golitsis especially insists on dating and on chronological hypotheses. However, his “objections” are themselves open to rather severe criticisms on other grounds, especially since they deal with what I take to be crucial matters that require special care. Golitsis has, e.g., a 12th c. text (Michael of Ephesus commentary on Metaphysics Lambda) in a manuscript (Laur. 87.12) which he claims to be copied during the 11th c.; he also claims a 10th c. manuscript (Paris. gr. 1853) to be the exemplar of a 9th. c. one (Vind. phil. gr. 100). And so on and so forth. On the other hand, there is no sign he has analytically considered the main content of the book he is reviewing.

Abstract
One peculiar feature of Golitsis’ review (BMCR 2013), apart from the fact that he does not argue for his views (which makes discussion difficult), is that I have hardly expressed any opinions he opposes, either in the book under consideration or in my 2010 article. Golitsis especially insists on dating and on chronological hypotheses. However, his “objections” are themselves open to rather severe criticisms on other grounds, especially since they deal with what I take to be crucial matters that require special care. Golitsis has, e.g., a 12th c. text (Michael of Ephesus commentary on Metaphysics Lambda) in a manuscript (Laur. 87.12) which he claims to be copied during the 11th c.; he also claims a 10th c. manuscript (Paris. gr. 1853) to be the exemplar of a 9th. c. one (Vind. phil. gr. 100). And so on and so forth. On the other hand, there is no sign he has analytically considered the main content of the book he is reviewing.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
