This is a study of the psychological ideas of Galen (AD 129-c.210,
the most important medical writer in antiquity) and Stoicism (a
major philosophical theory in the Hellenistic and Roman periods),
which Galen discussed extensively. Christopher Gill's main topics
are psychology and bodily form, psychological functions, especially
reason and emotion, and the therapy of emotions, and his aim is to
provide both an informative scholarly discussion and an original
analysis of this material. He claims that the two theories are
complementary in ways not recognized in antiquity and that the
combination of their ideas would have produced a powerful account
of psychology that still merits the attention of modern readers.
