Item description from seller

VII., 157 Seiten / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - altersgemäß sehr guter Zustand / very good condition for its age - PREFACE THIS sketch of the doctrines of the supreme divine power in pre-Socratic philosophy was undertaken as A the result of some studies in the origin of the Stoic doctrines of God and Pneuma (the Spirit of God), which were published in Ricerche Religiose (1926-1929). In those studies, the conclusion was reached that it was extremely difficult, if not impossible, to explain the preoccupation of Greek philosophers, from Plato to Zeno, with the problem of the true nature of the supreme divine power, if that problem had first been raised by Plato. In the nineteenth century, many scholars believed that the history of Greek philosophy presented us with a picture of two groups of philosophers, between whose activities there was scarcely any relation: the pre-Socratic philosophers were supposed to have expended their best energies upon the investigation of nature, and to have created natural science; Plato and Aristotle were supposed to have subordinated natural science to metaphysics, and to have created the science of the supreme divine reality. The activities of the first group were supposed to have culminated in the complete materialism of the Atomists. Furthermore, it was generally held that the first group had broken resolutely away from earlier Greek thought and traditions about the nature of divine power. In a period of less than three centuries, the main current of Greek thought was believed to have changed its direction twice. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…
