from Thales to Aristotle

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Long renowned as one of the clearest and best introductions to ancient Greek philosophy for non-specialists, W.K.C Guthrie's The Greek Philosophers offers us a brilliant insight into the hidden foundations of Greek philosophy - foundations that underpin Western thought today. Guthrie unpacks the ideas and arguments of Plato and Aristotle in the light of their predecessors rather than their successors and highlights the achievements of thinkers such as Pythagoras. Combining philosophical insight and historical sensitivity, The Greek Philosophers offers newcomers a brilliant introduction to the greatest thinkers in ancient Greek philosophy.
