The translation presented here of the Mushaf as-suwar (The Book of Pictures) into English is its first translation into a European language. It is the result of careful, repeated, distillation work over a period of twenty years, encouraged by Dr. M.-L. von Franz.The text is a dialogue between the teacher Zosimos and his beloved student Theosebeia, explaining to her the symbolic meaning of the alchemical work.The unique contribution of this text is its 42 pictures, mostly colored, that Zosimos has drawn for Theosebeia. These pictures are, as is demonstrated in the introduction written by Theodor Abt, the earliest alchemical pictures known, and they are the source of the picture series given in the Rosarium and of the Mutus Liber. The whole dialogue is the earliest known psychological dialogue concerning transference and counter-transference.

Consacrées à l’histoire de l’aristotélisme après Aristote, les dix-neuf études qui composent ce recueil sont le fruit de recherches publiées entre 1995 et 2004 et, pour deux d’entre elles, inédites à ce jour. Chacune présente la découverte de documents anciens (byzantins, arabes ou latins) encore inconnus, qui jettent une nouvelle lumière sur la transmission de l’héritage aristotélicien dans les domaines de la logique, de la physique et de la cosmologie. Ces études sont organisées autour de trois grands thèmes : l’œuvre du plus grand commentateur d’Aristote, Alexandre d’Aphrodise (début du IIIe siècle), l’Université d’Alexandrie à la fin de l’Antiquité (Ve-VIe siècles) et la transmission des textes entre Byzance et l’Italie. Avec Alexandre, dont une série de textes inconnus, en grec et en arabe, sont ici exhumés pour la première fois, se produit l’achèvement du processus d’organisation des écrits d’Aristote : le système des écrits du Philosophe a vocation à devenir adéquat au système du Monde ; avec l’Université d’Alexandrie, et en particulier Jean Philopon, ce sont les premiers craquements dans l’édifice qui se font entendre et là encore, de nouveaux documents grecs et arabes permettent de mieux apprécier la portée exacte des divergences ; avec la transmission de Byzance à l’Italie, un chapitre majeur de l’histoire des textes philosophiques est abordé, indispensable pour comprendre les modalités des appropriations du patrimoine aristotélicien par les médiévaux latins, du XIIe au XVe siècle. Ce livre est un ouvrage fondamental pour tous les historiens de la philosophie grecque, byzantine, arabe et médiévale.

Arab painting, preserved mainly in manuscript illustrations of the 12th to 14th centuries, is here treated as an artistic corpus fully deserving of appreciation in its own terms, and not as a mere precursor to Persian painting. The book assembles papers by a distinguished list of scholars that illuminate the variety of material that survives in scientific as well as literary manuscripts. Because of the contexts in which the paintings appear, a major theoretical concern is, precisely, the relationship of painting to text. It rejects earlier scholarly habits of analysing paintings in isolation, and proposes the integration of text and image as a more satisfactory framework within which to elucidate the characteristics and functions of this impressive body of work.
