This volume contains papers and commentaries presented to the Boston Area Colloquium in Ancient Philosophy during the academic year 2007-8. The papers discuss a wide range of topics related to Plato and Aristotle. On Plato, topics include false pleasures in the "Philebus," the tripartite soul in the "Republic," and rhetoric in the "Phaedrus," and on Aristotle, the relation of the physical and psychological in "De Anima," of virtue and happiness in the "Ethics," of body and nature in the "Physics," and the role of pros hen in the "Metaphysics." One other paper argues for the Aristotelian origin of Stoic determinism.
