Description:
The essays collected in this volume provide an introduction to Ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, from the Pre-Socratics (6th and 5th century BCE) through Plato (429-347 BCE) and Aristotle (384-322 BCE) up to and including the Hellenistic period (322 BCE. to the third century CE).
Review Quotes: "A companion in the best sense of the word, Kirkland and Sanday's volume invites us to tarry with and encounter anew the philosophers of antiquity. Careful, rigorous, even provocative, the essays collected here show us what it means to think with the ancients." -Emanuela Bianchi, author of The Feminine Symptom: Aleatory Matter in the Aristotelian Cosmos
