The Commentary on the Categories by Abū l-Farağ ibn aṭ-Ṭayyib is an important representative of the Aristotelian tradition in Arabic culture. Formally based on late antique commentaries on Aristotle's Categories, it provides the last example of the learned tradition still alive in eleventh-century Baghdad. The introduction offers a general survey of the commentaries on Aristotelian Categories , from the first Greek texts to the Arabic version featured here. The life and works of Ibn aṭ-Ṭayyib are also discussed. Systematic comparison with surviving Greek commentaries and a series of thematic studies elucidate the author´s method. The critical edition of ibn aṭ-Ṭayyib's Commentary is accompanied by a detailed summary, which facilitates its use by readers unfamiliar with the Arabic language.

Cleophea Ferrari, Ph.D. (2001) in Classics, Arabic Philology and Philosophy, Bochum University, has published several essays on the transmission and impact of Greek philosophy in Arabic culture, e.g. in Aristotele e i suoi esegeti neoplatonici (2004) and in the Storia della filosofia nell´Islam medievale (ed. C. D´Ancona, 2005).
