Aristotle's treatise "De Memoria" is close to theories of memory in the British empiricist tradition. Because of its richness of detail it serves as a good introduction to the topic. This book, first published in 1972, provides a translation of the text which is more faithful to the original than previous ones, together with extensive introduction, summaries and commentary. It has never been superseded. For this second edition of the book, Richard Sorabji has provided a substantial new introduction, taking account of scholarly debate over the intervening thirty years, particularly on the role of mental images in the imagination.

'Sorabji has produced a first class book on an important topic. All Aristotelians, and anyone with an interest in any aspect of memory, will be in his debt...' - Jonathan Barnes, Isis 'Anyone concerned with Aristotle's psychology, theory of mind or rhetoric, anyone interested in mnemonic systems, and anyone trying to work out for himself a theory of memory, should read Aristotle's treatise On Memory, with the comments by Richard Sorabji.' - Anthony Preus, International Studies in Philosophy 'Sorabji's book is a sample of the care, intelligence and subtlety that the Anglo-Saxon philosophers do not hesitate to invest in such enterprises... The notes seem to leave no detail, no textual difficulty unilluminated.' Jacques Brunschwig, Revue de Metaphysique et de Morale
