Areas of special interest to Fortenbaugh are Peripatetic philosophy, New Comedy and ancient rhetoric. For the most part his recent publications have concerned Theophrastus, Aristotle's pupil and head of the Peripatos, but there are articles on other Peripatetics of the Hellenistic period, on the rhetorical theory of Aristotle and Cicero, and on Peripatetic theories of laughter.

Professor Fortenbaugh is the founder and director of Project Theophrastus and the editor of the series Rutgers University Studies in Classical Humanities.
