Description
Summary:The preponderance of the evidence indicates that Richard Rufus wrote the commentary on Aristotle’s Physics I published in 2003 as well as two commentaries on the Metaphysics.

In the course of claiming that these changes do not militate against the attribution, this article addresses the general question: What are the appropriate standards for an attribution?\n4207 \n4207
