 "description": "Historical theses from Many and One, the authorship notebook and The First Draft holding that the Platonic, Aristotelian and Theophrastan corpora are one body divided by name, and that the divisions are editorial: Andronicus's genuine/spurious partition and his πίνακες, and the single lot of books sold to Apellicon. The page reads ancient legitimacy as standing rather than paternity and sets the esoteric/exoteric partition as an Alexander story told at the seam where corpus meets empire. What Syllogizing Can Divide names the production model as one self-dividing maker, dividing the corpus where De anima III.5 divides mind, and leaves open tests on the ghost catalogues and on epigraphic items not yet held.",
