1 Fr. 121, the opening section of Alexander's Refutation of X.'s Thesis that the Species is Prior to the Genus; first published in Arabic by A. Badawi in Aristu inda 1–Arab, Cairo, 1947; English translation and discussion by S. Pines, TAPS 51 (1961)–this is the version printed by I.P.; French translation by Badawi, La transmission de la philosophie grecque au monde arabe (Paris 1968), 143f.; German translation from an emended text based on a new reading of the MS by J. van Ess, AGP 55 (1973), 188ff. There are no substantial differences between these versions in the first paragraph, in which X.'s thesis is stated. The rest of the text, about a page in length, contains Alexander's counter-arguments and has not been reprinted by I.P.
