MOMBELLO, Eduardo H.. Ammonius: Commentary on the doctrine of "-onymies" in the Categories of Aristotle (Introduction, greek text, translation and notes). Nova tellus [online]. 2011, vol.29, n.1, pp.285-334. ISSN 0185-3058.

After a brief preliminary description of the ancient commentary movement relating to Aristotle's treatises, this paper provides a first translation from ancient Greek into Spanish of Ammonius' Commentary on Aristotle's Categories 1a1-15. In this commentary, the exhausted topic corresponds to technical notions of homonyms, synonyms and paronymous: decisive conceptions that to a large extent determine the comprehension of Aristotelian philosophy. The translation of the Greek is direct and literal, and includes explanatory and analytical notes which character is as much philological as philosophical.

Keywords : Ammonius; Aristotle; homonyms; synonyms; paronymous.
