This book presents some of the most recent trends and developments
in Presocratic scholarship. A wide range of topics are covered -
from the metaphysical to the moral to the methodological - as well
as a broad a range of authors: from recognized figures such as
Heraclitus and Parmenides to Sophistic thinkers whose place has
traditionally been marginalized, such as Gorgias and the author of
the Dissoi Logoi. Several of the pieces are concerned with the
later reception and influence of the Presocratics on ancient
philosophy, an area of study important both for the light it sheds
on our evidence for Presocratic thought and for understanding the
philosophical power of their ideas. Drawing together contributions
from distinguished authorities and internationally acclaimed
scholars of ancient philosophy, this book offers new challenges to
traditional interpretations in some areas of Presocratic philosophy
and finds new support for traditional interpretations in other
areas.
