Sosigenes the Peripatetic (Σωσιγένης, Σωσιγένης ο Περιπατητικός) was a peripatetic philosopher living at the end of the 2nd century A.D. He was the tutor of Alexander of Aphrodisias and wrote a work on Revolving Spheres, from which some important extracts have been preserved in Simplicius's commentary on Aristotle's De caelo. He is often confused with the Roman astronomer Sosigenes of Alexandria. This article incorporates text from the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica, which is in the public domain.
