Christopher Gill offers a new analysis of what is innovative in
Hellenistic - especially Stoic and Epicurean - philosophical
thinking about selfhood and personality. His wide-ranging
discussion of Stoic and Epicurean ideas is illustrated by a more
detailed examination of the Stoic theory of the passions and a new
account of the history of this theory. His study also tackles
issues about the historical study of selfhood and the relationship
between philosophy and literature, especially the presentation of
the collapse of character in Plutarch's Lives, Senecan tragedy, and
Virgil's Aeneid. As all Greek and Latin is translated, this book
presents original ideas about ancient concepts of personality to a
wide range of readers.
