In this volume, the first comprehensive book in English about
Epicurus, existing data on the life of the ancient philosopher is
related to the development of his doctrine. The result is a
fascinating account that challenges traditional theories and
interpretations of Epicurean philosophy. Professor DeWitt
demonstrates the fallacy of centuries of abuse of Epicurus and the
resulting distortion of most discussions of Epicureanism that
appear in standard philosophical works. Of major significance to
students of philosophy and theology are the findings that show the
importance of Epicureanism as a source of numerous Christian
beliefs.
