Myles Burnyeat (1939-2019) was a major figure in the study of
ancient Greek philosophy during the last decades of the twentieth
century and the first of this. After teaching positions in London
and Cambridge, where he became Laurence Professor, in 1996 he took
up a Senior Research Fellowship at All Souls College, Oxford, from
which he retired in 2006. In 2012 he published two volumes
collecting essays dating from before the move to Oxford. Two new
posthumously published volumes bring together essays from his years
at All Souls and his retirement, some of which have hitherto been
unpublished. Volume 3 introduces Plato's Republic and examines his
subsequent interpretation, and shows how ancient philosophical
thinking can be applied to contemporary questions about key
philosophical and psychological topics. Volume 4 focuses on Plato's
and Aristotle's handling of important concepts in epistemology,
metaphysics and science, and introduces the early history of Greek
optics.
