Several critical editions are available: L. Spengel’s Anaximenis Ars Rhetorica quae vulgo fertur Aristotelis ad Alexandrum (Turici et Vitoduri: 1844; repr. Hildesheim: 1981) gives the Greek text with a commentary in Latin, M. Fuhrmann, Anaximenes, Ars Rhetorica quae vulgo fertur Aristotelis ad Alexandrum2 (Munich: 2000), has a Greek text, and P. Chiron, Ps.-Aristote, Rhetorique a Alexandre, Bude edition (Paris: 2002), has a Greek text and a French translation and commentary. For an English translation, see E. S.
