Philosophy in the Ancient World: An Introduction_an intellectual
history of the ancient world from the eighth century B.C.E. to the
fifth century C.E., from Homer to Boethius_describes and evaluates
ancient thought in its cultural setting, showing how it affected
and was affected by that setting. The greatest philosophers
(Parmenides, Plato, Aristotle, Augustine) and cultural figures
(Homer, Euripides, Thucydides, Archimedes) and a number of lesser
ones (Hesiod, Posidonius, Basil) receive careful description and
evaluation. Philosophy in the Ancient World is ideally suited as a
supplement for undergraduate courses in Ancient Philosophy and the
History of Philosophy in the West.
