This volume analyses in depth the reception of early Greek
philosophy in the Epicurean tradition and provides for the first
time in scholarship a comprehensive edition, with translation and
commentary, of all the Herculanean testimonia to the Presocratics.
Among the most significant scientific outcomes, it provides
elements for the attribution of an earlier date to the attested
tradition of Xenophanes' scepticism; a complete reconstruction of
the Epicurean reception of Democritus; a new reconstruction of the
testimonia to Nausiphanes' concept of physiologia, Anaxagoras'
physics and theology, and Empedocles' epistemology; new texts for
better comparing the doxographical sections of Philodemus' On Piety
with those of Cicero's On the Nature of the Gods, which update
Hermann Diels' treatment of this subject in his Doxographi Graeci.
