Abstract
In 1554 the Sevillian humanist Sebastián Fox Morcillo published in Basilea his In Platonis Timaeum Commentarium, where he compiles, from the Antiquity, the Platonic exegetic tradition. Our paper centres upon one ofthe members ofthis tradition, the middle platonic Alcinous, whose treatise Didaskalikos is used by Fox Morcillo as a source for the interpretation of this platonic dialogue.
