[97] The well known story regarding the concealment of Aristotle’s library by his heir, Neleus of Scepsis, and its restoration by Apellicon, is faithfully related by Strabo, Geograph., ix. In this passage Strabo states, that before the restoration of the library by Apellicon, there were but few of Aristotle’s works in the hands of the peripatetic philosophers, and these principally his exoteric works. But that the treatise “On the History of Animals” was an exoteric work, can admit of no question. This is confidently maintained by the learned Schneider in the prolegomena to his edition of this work. Indeed, as he suggests, there is no good reason for doubting that the treatise “On the History of Animals” had been published by Aristotle in his lifetime. (Epimetrum, ii.) See also Buhle’s dissertation prefixed to his edition of Aristotle’s works. I need scarcely add that, it being thus shown that all the most learned authorities on the literature of Aristotle’s works are agreed that the History of Animals, in which is contained this disputed fragment on the veins, was published before the time when the Hippocratic Collection is supposed to have been made, M. Littré’s conclusions on this head must fall to the ground.
