Four related themes in Greek thought are examined in this book: (1)
personality and self, (2) ethics and values (3) individuals and
communities, and (4) the idea of nature as a moral norm. Although
the focus is on Greek philosophy (the Presocratics, Plato,
Aristotle, and the Hellenistic period), links between philosophy
and literature or the wider culture are also explored. The book
combines a survey of recent scholarship on these topics with the
author's own interpretations. It can be used by students or
teachers of classical studies or philosophy as an introduction to
key themes and issues in Greek ethics or psychology. One aspect of
the subject given special emphasis is the relationship between
ancient and modern ideas on the issues treated here. The book
closes with a selective bibliography on modern work on Greek
philosophy.
