Peripatetic Philosophy in Context (eBook, ePUB)

Knowledge, Time, and Soul from Theophrastus to Cratippus

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book deals with some Aristotelian philosophers of the Hellenistic Age, ranging from Theophrastus of Eresus to Cratippus of Pergamum. The problem of knowledge, the question of time, and the doctrine of the soul are investigated by comparing these Peripatetics' views with Aristotle's philosophy, and above all by setting their doctrines within the broader framework of post-Aristotelian and Hellenistic philosophies (the Old Academy, Epicureanism, and Stoicism).

Rezensionen

"To my mind, this book is an excellent contribution to the study of Peripatetic philosophy in the Hellenistic age; it is carefully argued and abounds with fine analyses of the sources. Furthermore, because the issues discussed were central for other philosophers of the age as well as those in the Peripatos, it can be fruitful reading for scholars who are interested in Hellenistic philosophy in general."
