Conceptualising Concepts in Greek Philosophy
Plutarch
Plutarch sets out to do justice to Plato’s philosophy as a whole, its doctrines as well as its skeptical aspect, but also to defend it from its critics and rivals, Epicureans and Stoics. Plutarch’s Platonic exegesis relies mainly on the Timaeus, which he interprets literally, maintaining that the world has come about from two principles, the demiurge (accounting for order and unity) and the indefinite dyad (accounting for disorder and multiplicit…
The Philosophy of Early Christianity
This new edition introduces the reader to the philosophy of early Christianity in the second to fourth centuries AD, and contextualizes the philosophical contributions of early Christians in the framework of the ancient philosophical debates. It examines the first attempts of Christian thinkers to engage with issues such as questions of cosmogony and first principles, freedom of choice, concept formation, and the body–soul relation, as well as la…
Pseudo-Aristotle: De Mundo (On the Cosmos)
De mundo is a protreptic to philosophy in the form of a letter to Alexander the Great and is traditionally ascribed to Aristotle. It offers a unique view of the cosmos, God and their relationship, which was inspired by Aristotle but written by a later author. The author provides an outline of cosmology, geography and meteorology, only to argue that a full understanding of the cosmos cannot be achieved without a proper grasp of God as its ultimate…
Pseudo-Aristotle
Proof by Assumption of the Possible in Prior Analytics , 1.15; How Not to Blend Modal Frameworks
The present paper aims to show that the reconstruction of the formal framework of the proofs in Pr. An. 1.15, as proposed by Malink and Rosen 2013 (‘Proof by Assumption of the Possible in Prior Analytics 1.15’, Mind, 122, 953-85) is due to affront a double impasse. Malink and Rosen argue convincingly that Aristotle operates with two different modal frameworks, one as found in the system of modal logic presented in Prior Analytics 1.3 and 8-22, an…
Aristokles of Messene
Aristokles of Messene is a little‐known Peripatetic of imperial times (he is probably to be dated in the early first century ce ). In his work On Philosophy , preserved in fragments, Aristokles is critical of materialism, relativism, and skepticism, which is advocated mainly by the Eleatics, the Skeptics, the Epicureans, and the Cyrenaics, while he stresses the value of Platonic and Aristotelian philosophy. Aristocle's profile comes close to that…
The Aporetic Tradition in Ancient Philosophy
Ancient philosophers from an otherwise diverse range of traditions were connected by their shared use of aporia - translated as puzzlement rooted in conflicts of reasons - as a core tool in philosophical enquiry. The essays in this volume provide the first comprehensive study of aporetic methodology among numerous major figures and influential schools, including the Presocratics, Plato, Aristotle, Plutarch, Alexander of Aphrodisias, Academic scep…

Early Christian Philosophers on Aristotle
The Philosophy of Early Christianity
George Karamanolis shows that early Christian thinkers, following the example of classical philosophy, developed a highly sophisticated method of philosophical thinking by means of which they constructed some of the most fundamental doctrines of Christianity. The book examines the character of early Christian philosophy and goes on to place the development of this philosophy in its cultural and historical context. The core of the book deals thema…

Plato and Aristotle in Agreement?
This book breaks new ground in the study of later ancient philosophy by examining the interplay of the two main schools of thought, Platonism and Aristotelianism, from the first century BC to the third century AD. From the time of Antiochus and for the next four centuries, Platonists were strongly preoccupied with the question of how Aristotle’s philosophy compared with the Platonic model. Scholars have usually classified Platonists into two grou…

Plethon and Scholarios on Aristotle
With Plethon and Scholarios the scenery for a heated philosophical debate was set. Scholarios’ student, Matthew Kamariotes, will write against Ple- thon, while Theodore Gazes will be equally critical of him. Plethon’s views also found support. Michael Apostoles responds to Gazes with a brief treatise in which he criticizes Aristotle’s views on substance. This prompted Gazes’ cousin, Andronikos Kallistos, to write in defence of Gazes, advocating A…
