Grene, Marjorie. A Portrait of Aristotle. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1963.
Review:
“To the painter of a portrait many liberties are conceded. He may be selective and subjective, may choose his distance and angle of vision, and may decide which features are to stand out in bold relief and which are to be reduced in scale or even wholly omitted. Mrs. Grene has made the fullest use of these liberties. Some of her readers are likely to agree with her that the essential Aristotle is to be found in the biological treatises and that once we have come to know Aristotle’s forma mentis in his biological research we may recognize its manifestation also in the Metaphysics.”
Review from Isis Vol. 55, No. 3.
