Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. De retour a Ithaque (Odyssee XIII 102-112), Ulysse depose les presents qu'il a recus d'Alcinoos, le roi des Pheaciens, dans une grotte situee sur la cote de son ile. Se situant dans un courant d'interpretation pratiquee par des platoniciens comme Numenius, Porphyre propose une exegese allegorique de ces lignes. La grotte devient le symbole du monde sensible dans lequel l'ame humaine descendant de l'intelligible vient s'etablir pour un temps, avant de remonter vers son lieu d'origine. On se trouve alors dans un contexte ou se melent litterature et philosophie neoplatonicienne, puisque la description des peregrinations cycliques de l'ame humaine est, selon Porphyre, anticipee dans ces quelques vers de l'Odyssee, un millenaire auparavant. C'est a une lecture assionnante, guidee par les meilleurs specialistes, que nous convie cet ouvrage.

It comprises Tiziano Dorandi's comprehensive new edition of the Clearchus 'fragments', accompanied by a richly annotated English translation from Stephen White, as well as nine new studies examining key aspects of Clearchus' thought.Clearchus, from Soli on the island of Cyprus, was an Aristotelian philosopher and cultural historian active in the later fourth and early third centuries BCE.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. This edition presents a radically improved text of Diogenes Laertius' Lives of Eminent Philosophers. The text is accompanied by a full critical apparatus on three levels. A lengthy introduction lists all the manuscripts of the Lives and discusses its transmission in late antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. There is also an index of personal names, a bibliography and notes covering several features of the text and its interpretation. Professor Dorandi has used the Nachlaß of Peter Von der Mühll, for the first time in its entirety, to verify and consolidate material that he had previously gathered. This is by far the most detailed and elaborate edition which Diogenes' Lives - a unique work which has had a profound influence on European literature and philosophy - has ever received.
