and Notes:
Title and imprint from colophon.

Printed in double columns with commentary surrounding the text.
In most instances the translation of the text which is in numbered sections is the "new" translation from the Arabic; the unnumbered is directly from the Greek. The works on logic are the translation by Boethius; the Ethica, Politica and Economica are translated by Leonard de Arezzo and also include his commentary.
