  In late antiquity the works of Plato and Aristotle were subject to intense study, which eventually led to the development of a new literary form, the philosophical commentary. This book presents an introduction to the 'philosophy' of the commentators: their way of doing philosophy and the kind of philosophical problems they found interesting.
