Baltussen, H 2000 Philosophia antiqua, 0079-1687 ( Serie ) Boston : Brill 9789004321113 | BRILL9789004321113 Abstract

This study of Theophrastus' much neglected De sensibus offers a new interpretation of the treatment of the Presocratic and Platonic views on sense perception, and provides new insight into Theophrastus' exegetical procedure by using Peripatetic dialectic as a heuristic tool.
