The Quimbra Commentaries

The Quimbra Commentaries, a significant publishing venture of early modern philosophy, created in the 16th century by Jesuit Geronimo Nadal, relieved students from taking notes by providing extensive texts covering works of Aristotle. Published in eight volumes from 1592 to 1606, the commentaries focused on Aristotle's writings and adopted a humanist approach, addressing philological questions alongside the original Greek text.
