Cloth with dustjacket. Etat : Gut. XV, 271 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag berieben, minimale Randläsuren, Buchrücken ausgeblichen, Kopfschnitt angeschmutzt, Bleistiftanmerkung auf Vorsatz / dust jacket rubbed, minimal edgewear, spine faded, top edge soiled, pencil annotation on endpaper. - This collection of nine original essays is addressed to the growing number of philosophers, classicists, and intellectual historians who are interested in the development of Greek thought after Aristotle. The books particular concern is the réévaluation of philosophy in the period from about 50 B.C. to A.D. 200. The intellectual climate of this time has been dismissively designated eclectic, a term suggesting uncritical assemblage of divergent doctrines by thinkers who lacked originality and analytical acumen. These essays explore the meaning and history of eclecticism in the context of ancient philosophy and seek to provide more accurate descriptions of the work of such philosophers as Cicero, Philo of Alexandria, Plutarch, and the Neopythagoreans. They explore the distinctive character of intellectual enquiry at this timethe criterion of truth, the creative imagination, and the antecedents of our modern notion of the will. Collectively, these essays serve to dismiss the term eclecticism in its perjorative sense as a characterization of the philosophy of this period. What emerges as preoccupations of the period are the creative use of the intellectual tradition, the extension of philosophy into literary and scientific study, and the rational foundations of orthodoxy and heterodoxy. Thus the books findings will be useful to anyone interested in the cultural history of the period. / Contents Preface vii Notes on contributors ix Abbreviations xi Chronology xiii Introduction I i.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - The Question of Eclecticism: Studies in Later Greek Philosophy offers a rigorous reexamination of a period often dismissed as intellectually stagnant--the first century B.C. to the second century A.D.--through a critical lens that challenges the pejorative connotations of the term 'eclecticism.' Traditionally regarded as an era of philosophical decline, characterized by an unoriginal blending of Stoic, Platonic, Aristotelian, and Skeptic doctrines, this collection of essays aims to redefine the intellectual vitality of the time. Rather than seeing this period as a passive transmission of earlier philosophical traditions, the contributors argue that it was marked by an active and innovative engagement with philosophical ideas, where thinkers like Cicero, Philo of Alexandria, Plutarch, and Galen sought to synthesize, refine, and apply inherited doctrines to new intellectual, ethical, and scientific inquiries. This book questions the rigid school-based categorizations that have historically shaped our understanding of Greek philosophy, demonstrating that figures often labeled as 'eclectic' were, in fact, pursuing rigorous philosophical projects. Through case studies on figures such as Antiochus of Ascalon, Aenesidemus, and Sextus Empiricus, the essays reveal how philosophical debates continued to evolve through critical appropriation rather than mere borrowing. By tracing the conceptual developments in epistemology, ethics, and natural philosophy, The Question of 'Eclecticism' sheds new light on a formative period of Western thought, illustrating how the cross-fertilization of ideas laid the groundwork for later Neoplatonism and medieval philosophy. This collection is an essential contribution to the study of later Greek philosophy, offering a nuanced perspective that rehabilitates a historically misunderstood era. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1988.…
