The three ancient philosophical introductions translated in this
volume flesh out our picture of what it would have been like to sit
in a first-year Philosophy course in ancient Alexandria. Ammonius
(AD 445-517/26) set up a new teaching programme in Alexandria with
up to six introductions to the philosophy curriculum, which made it
far more accessible, and encouraged its spread from Greek to other
cultures. This volume's three introductory texts include one by his
student Olympiodorus and one each by Olympiodorus' students Elias
and David. Elias' Introductions to Philosophy starts with six
definitions of Philosophy, to which David adds replies to the
sceptical question whether there is such a thing as Philosophy.
Olympiodorus' text translated here is an Introduction to Logic,
which is just one of the three introductions he wrote himself.
