        Abstract
        Sergius of Reshaina (d. 536) is a major figure in the history of the Syriac reception of Aristotle’s logic. He studied philosophy and medicine in the late 5th century in Alexandria with the famous Ammonius Hermeiou, whose lectures formed the basis for Sergius’ main philosophical work, his extensive Commentary on the Categories. In this treatise, Sergius adapted for his Christian audience the Alexandrian educational model and exegesis of Aristotle logical writings and in this way influenced subsequent centuries of Aristotelian studies in Syriac.
         
        Sergius von Reshaina (gest. 536) ist eine Hauptfigur in der Geschichte der syrischen Rezeption der Aristotelischen Logik. Er studierte im späten 5. Jahrhundert in Alexandrien Philosophie und Medizin bei dem berühmten Ammonius Hermeiou, dessen Vorlesungen die Grundlage für Sergius' philosophisches Hauptwerk, seinen umfangreichen Kommentar zur Kategorienschrift, bildeten. In diesem Traktat passte Sergius das alexandrinische Bildungsmodell und die Exegese der logischen Schriften des Aristoteles für sein christliches Publikum an und beeinflusste auf diese Weise die nachfolgenden Jahrhunderte der aristotelischen Studien in syrischer Sprache.
