Herminus

Herminus

Herminus ( _el. Ἑρμῖνος) was a Peripatetic philosopher, who lived in the first half of the 2nd century. [Lucian, "Demonax", 56.] He appears to have written commentaries on most of the works of Aristotle. Simplicius [Simplicius, "ad Arist. de Caelo", ii. 23] says he was the instructor of Alexander of Aphrodisias. His writings, of which nothing now remains, are frequently referred to by Boethius, who mentions a treatise by him, περὶ Ἑρμηνείας, as also "Analytica" and "Topica".
