<strong>THE</strong> LIFE OF ARISTfiTLE 21<br />

In the year 343 or 342 B.C. (Olymp. 109, 2),<br />

1<br />

Aristotle accepted a call to the Macedonian Court 2 to<br />

bake charge of the education of the young Alexander,<br />

bhen thirteen years old, 3 which before that had not<br />

been in the best hands. 4 The invitation probably found<br />

him in Mytilene. 5 We have no reliable testimony as to<br />

the special reasons which led Philip to think of Aristotle.<br />

6 Most unfortunately, we are almost entirely<br />

ing her a eralpa; SuiDAS and<br />

the Anon. Menag.), yet he must<br />

have treated her as his wife, and<br />

his will speaks of her with<br />

honour, provides for her, and<br />

begs his friends eiryifAeitrflai . . .<br />

Bo0y (DlOG. 13).—As to Aristotle's<br />

daughter we know from<br />

Sext. Math. (i. 258), the Anon.<br />

Menag. and Suidas s. v. 'Ap., that<br />

after Nicanor she had two husbands,<br />

Procles of Sparta, and<br />

Metrpdorus the physician; <strong>by</strong><br />

the former she had two sons who<br />

were scholars under Theophrastus,<br />

<strong>by</strong> the latter a son, Aristoteles,<br />

who was commended (being<br />

then probably young) <strong>by</strong> Theophrastus<br />

to his friends in his<br />

will. Nioomachus was brought<br />

up <strong>by</strong> Theophrastus, but died in<br />

youth (peipaicio-Kos) in battle (Aristool.<br />

ap. EUS. xv. 2, 10 ; DlOG.<br />

v. 29 ; Suidas s. v. 0e. and<br />

Nimijit., confirmed <strong>by</strong> the terms of<br />

Theophrastus' will, apud DlOG. v.<br />

51). The six books of Ethics and<br />

the work on his father's Physios,<br />

ascribed to him <strong>by</strong> Suidas, are<br />

therefore very doubtful.<br />

1<br />

This date is given <strong>by</strong> Apollod.<br />

ap. DlOG. 10, and Dionys.<br />

ut swpra. The Schol. in Arist. 23<br />

b, 47, says Aristotle was at Alexander's<br />

Court at Plato's death, but<br />

this is obviously wrong.<br />

2 Cf. Geiee, Alexander und<br />

Arist. (Halle, 1856).<br />

a<br />

Diog. says fifteen, which<br />

must be an oversight, for Apollodorus<br />

cannot be wrong in such<br />

a date (cf. Stahb, p. 85).<br />

4<br />

Plttt. Alex. c. v. ; Quintil.<br />

i. 1, 9.<br />

5 Stahr (p. 84, 105, A. 2) is<br />

not averse to the view that Aristotle<br />

first went back from Mytilene<br />

to Athens, but none of our<br />

biographers know anything of<br />

it. On the contrary, Dionys., ut<br />

swpra, expressly says he went<br />

from Mytilene to Philip. Aristotle<br />

in a fragment of a letter<br />

ap. Demetb. He Eloe. 29, 154,<br />
