On Melissus, Xenophanes, and Gorgias


On Melissus, Xenophanes, and Gorgias (Ancient Greek: Περὶ Μελίσσου, Ξενοφάνους καὶ Γοργίου; Latin: De Melisso, Xenophane, Gorgia) is a short work falsely attributed to Aristotle. The work was likely written during the 1st century CE or later by a member of the peripatetic school.

Jaap Mansfeld argues that the work's style of argumentation may have been influenced by the Pyrrhonist modes of Agrippa the Skeptic.
