Author:
This edition of the Arabic translation Aristotleâs De Generatione Animalium forms an addition to the Greek text, ΠεÏὶ ζῴÏν γενÎÏεÏÏ, and the medieval Latin translation. It is based on three Arabic manuscripts (Leiden Or. 166; London, British Museum Or. Add. 7511; and a Tehran manuscript of KitÄb al-ḥayawÄn), and on the Latin after-version of Michael Scotus.
Jan Brugman (1923-2004), doctorate (1960) Leiden University, was professor of Arabic language and culture at Leiden University. He made an important contribution to the field with his extensive bibliography of modern Arabic literature in Egypt (1984).
Hendrik Johan Drossaart Lulofs (1906-1998), doctorate (1943) Utrecht University, was a classical philologist and historian of philosophy. He published widely on Aristotle and Nicolaus Damascenus. He was one of the founders of the Aristotles Semitico-Latinus project.
