Note 609 — Chapter IX · BRUNO IN THE HISTORY OF PHILOSOPHY
Reading edition
Historia Ventorum, Ellis and Spedding, ii, p. 51; cf. Nov. Org. ii. 12. The source of the Mount Athos legend is certainly Aristotle’s Problemata (xxvi. 39), while that for Olympus is either Solinus, or more probably Bruno, in the Cena de le Cenere (Lag. 167. 13). Bruno, on his part, refers to Alexander of Aphrodisias; it is not to be found, however, in Alexander’s commentary upon the Meteorologica (E. and S. refer to Ideler, i. 148).
