The Physics and Metaphysics of Stoic Corporealism
This chapter presents the fundamental doctrines of Stoic natural philosophy. The Stoics’ conviction that nothing exists beyond nature and that reality encompasses mostly bodies—a view nowadays labeled corporealism—led them to discuss substantive metaphysical issues under the heading of physics. The chapter first examines the Stoics’s fundamental corporeal principles—god and matter—as well as the relation of these principles to the four basic elem…
Conceptualising Concepts in Greek Philosophy
Intuitions in Stoic philosophy
There is no single ancient Greek word in the surviving fragments and testimonies of Hellenistic philosophy that is directly translatable by the term ‘intuition’. But if we are in search of intuitions in the context of Hellenistic epistemology, it could be said that both the Stoics and the sceptics made use of them in their philosophical debates; for intuitions seem to be closely connected with the formation of conceptions, which were abundantly u…
Diogenes Laertius 7.134
In describing the Stoic principles, the manuscript tradition of DL 7.134 preserves readings which variously call them σώματα , ‘bodies’, or ἀσώματα , ‘incorporeals’; but the Suida quotes this passage with ἀσωμάτους , ‘incorporeal’. This paper shows that the Suida has the best reading (and that, in any case, σώματα is least likely to be right). This is not the only, or the clearest, case where the Suida can correct our text: another example consid…

Sextus Empiricus and Ancient Physics
The two books of Sextus Empiricus' Against the Physicists have not received much attention in their own right, as sustained and methodical specimens of sceptical philosophy. This volume redresses the balance by offering a series of in-depth studies on them, focusing in particular on their overall argumentative structure and on the various ways in which their formal features relate to their contents, showing how Sextus' procedures vary from one se…
Sextus Empiricus and Ancient Physics
Thought Experiments in Methodological and Historical Contexts
Episteme, etc.
Sixteen authors, including some of the most distinguished scholars of our time, present essays which together reflect the impressive scope of Jonathan Barnes's contributions to philosophy, and in particular to the study of ancient philosophy. Six are on knowledge, five on logic and metaphysics and five are on ethics.

The notion of enargeia in Hellenistic philosophy1
This paper sketches the development of the notion of enargeia from a term of ordinary language to a technical term in ancient epistemology, and in particular the shift that takes place in the understanding of this notion in Hellenistic philosophy. According to the Epicureans and the Stoics, enargeia is not a matter of subjective feeling nor conviction; it rather describes a feature of certain impressions, which by their nature are infallibly indi…
Episteme, etc
"The sixteen essays written in honour of Jonathan Barnes for this volume reflect the impressive scope of his contributions to philosophy. Six are on knowledge, five on logic and metaphysics, five on ethics. The volume ranges widely over ancient philosophy, while also finding room for for two contemporary papers on truth and vagueness. Aristotle is prominent in eight of the essays; Plato, Sextus Empiricus, the Stoics, the Epicureans, and ancient G…

Empedocles on Colour and Colour Vision
Empedocles is among the first ancient philosophers, if not the very first, not only to use colour terms as adjectives characterizing the way things present themselves to us, such as ‘white’ of white milk (31 B 33 DK: λáλá λευκóν),, but also to refer to colours as items whose explanation forms a crucial part of a proper explanation of the world of experience. One basic fact which one cannot overlook about the objects of experience is that they are…

Aristotle's Use of Examples in the Prior Analytics
This paper examines the relevance and importance of the large number of examples which Aristotle uses in his Prior Analytics. In the first part of the paper three preliminary issues are raised: First, it investigates what counts as an example in Aristotle's syllogistic, and especially whether only examples expressed in concrete terms should be considered as examples or maybe also propositions and arguments with letters of the alphabet. The second…

Topics in Stoic Philosophy
Stoicism (third century BC to second century AD) is one of the richest and most influential intellectual traditions of antiquity. Leading scholars here contribute new studies of a set of topics which are the focus of current research in this area. They combine careful analytical attention to the original texts with historical sensitivity and philosophical acuity, to provide the basis for a better understanding of Stoic ethics, political theory, l…
