Socrates himself would be inconceivable without the Sophists since he is one of them.Socrates is given major prominence. Plato, Aristotle, and all of Hellenistic philosophy are deeply impregnated with his words and spirit.The teachings of the Minor Socratics are interpreted as one-sided reductions of the pluralistic values of Socratic thought and as anticipations of some issues that explode later in the Hellenistic Age.There are two appendices. The first concerns Orphism and contains a series of documents indispensable for the comprehension of some aspects of pre-Socratic and Platonic thought. The second explains the key to understanding the message of the Greeks--the message of "theorein".

  • Hellenistic Philosophies and the Preaching of the Resurrection (Acts 17:18, 32)
    HELLENISTIC PHILOSOPHIES AND THE PREACHING OF THE RESURRECTION (ACTS 17:18, 32) by N. CLAYTON CROY Decatur, GA The Acts of the Apostles traces, somewhat sporadically, the advance of Christian missions from Jerusalem through Judea and Samaria, to Syria, Asia Minor, Greece, and ultimately to Rome, the political cen­ ter of the Mediterranean world. But long before the narrator reaches the great capital city, he describes the Gospel's encounter with certain pagan schools of thought in a Greek polis which in some respects could claim to be the cultural center of the Mediterranean world, Athens. This city's fame as the showpiece of Greek democracy had dimmed by the NT era, but Athens could still claim to be an important center of archi­ tecture, art, and philosophy. The dimension of philosophy is the chief concern of this paper. In Acts 17:16-34 Luke offers his account of Paul's brief missionary experience in Athens. The centerpiece of this passage is Paul's sermon before the Areopagus (vss. 22-31). This sermon's skilful composition starts with an acknowledgement of pagan piety, moves deftly through natural revelation, faint allusions to Jewish ideas and a quotation of Hellenistic poetry, and culminates with a message of eschatological judg­ ment highlighting the role of Christ and the significance of his resur­ rection.1 Such a combination of topoi and technique, along with the perception that Luke is here presenting a paradigm of Paul's mission­ ary preaching to Gentiles, has rightfully elevated this passage to one of celebrated status. With fame comes the attention of many expositors.

  • The Tübingen School
    chapter 14 The Tübingen School Vittorio Hösle Among so many interpretative approaches to Plato, as far as I can see, only one has been named after the town where it was developed: the Tübingen School.1 On the one hand, this is certainly due to the fact that the approach did not convince the whole community of Plato scholars; in fact, it has remained rela- tively isolated and was met, particularly in the Anglo-American world, mainly with skepticism if not outright hostility. On the other hand, the toponymic designation is an honor: unlike, say, the analytic approach to Plato, the new approach did not spread diffusely among many people but was the achieve- ment of a handful of scholars who worked as colleagues in the same small German university town, a town the importance of which for the development of early German Idealism and historical-critical theology is known across the world. The originality of the approach is thus comparatively much higher; and although originality is no warrant of truth, bold new conceptions deserve admiration even from those who do not accept them. At the end of his long critical review of the work of Krämer that inaugurated the school—a review to which I will return—Gregory Vlastos called attention to those entirely admirable qualities which make this book a remark- able performance: vigor of argument, boldness of conception, breadth 1 It is sometimes called the “Tübingen-Milan School”, since Giovanni Reale (1931–2014), who taught at the Università Cattolica in Milan, further developed the ideas of Krämer and Gaiser; his book Per una nuova interpretazione di Platone (Reale 1984) is the most exhaustive pre- sentation of Plato’s philosophy taking into account the unwritten doctrines.

  • Moral Transformation in Greco-Roman Philosophy of Mind
    To our parents John and Esther Lee and Nam Soon Kwon for their love, prayers, and unfailing support Institue adulescentem iuxta viam suam, etiam cum senuerit, non recedet ab ea. Proverbs 22:6 Preface This project has undergone several changes since its first inception as a doctoral dissertation accepted by Fuller Theological Seminary in 2002 under the title “Greco-Roman Philosophy of Mind and Paul.” When the dissertation was first accepted into the WUNT II series, Professor Jörg Frey, then and current editor, suggested saving the material on Paul for another book and expanding the remainder on Greco-Roman philosophy of mind in two ways by: 1) adding a section on the role of the divine in moral progress for each philosophy, and 2) enlarging the analysis on Diaspora Judaism into separate chapters. Little did I know that these revisions would evolve into an almost two-decades long project where sections expanded into chapters, and major parts of the book expanded into separate works. This present book, Moral Transformation in Greco-Roman Philosophy of Mind, is a stand-alone and foundational work which maps out the moral milieu of the Apostle Paul and his Diaspora Jewish contemporaries by describing the ethical systems of, and reconstructing models of moral transformation for, Platonism and Stoicism. It ends with a Retrospect and Prospect that compares the two systems as theoretical poles and outlines the spectrum they create along which other systems can be assessed. A separate companion work under a new title will be published later that reconstructs the moral transformation systems of Epicureanism and Diaspora Judaism.

This article refers to the rationality of affirmations and negations appearing in the philosophies of Descartes and Voltaire who can be treated as followers of previous traditions that separated these two modes of articulating rationality, including the traditions of antiquity. These modes became somewhat of a rule first for Socrates, and later for his disciple, Plato. However, Descartes and Vol- taire slightly modified those traditions in order to adjust the rationalities they wrote about to the needs and expectations of their contemporaries. Voltaire negated, among other things, the rationali- ty of Descartes’ philosophy, but there were also a significant number of critics before him who expressed similar opinions, such as Leibniz or Kant.

  • Is Plato a Dualist?
    IS PLATO A DUALIST? VICTOR ALEXANDRU PRICOPI Abstract: Generally, Plato is seen as a monist philosopher. But this fact is true only if we take in account his written works. Since the Tübingen School reveals the importance of Plato’s inner-Academic teachings, the Plato monism is questionable. In this paper we try to find out if Plato is a dualist. We will see that, according to his successors, Plato spoke about two first supreme principles: the One and the indefinite Dyad. Moreover, some Modern scholars have proved that those teachings aren’t contradictory to Plato’s dialogues. In that case, the answer to our question will be positive. Keywords: Plato, dualism, unwritten teachings, Dyad, first principles PLATO’S UNWRITTEN TEACHINGS AND THE TÜBINGEN SCHOOL There are different interpretations of Plato’s philosophy, but since the 50’s of the last century Tübingen School of interpretation began to impose 1 . This kind of interpretation starts with the works of Hans Joachim Krämer and Konrad Gaiser, along with the researches of scholars like Heinz Happ, Thomas A. Szlezák, Vittorio Hösle, Jürgen Wippern, and Jens Halfwassen, or Giovanni Reale. Another kind of scholars who are affiliated to the Tübingen School of interpretation, but a little bit different then it is that represented by W. K. C. Guthrie, J. N. Findlay, Julia Annas or John Dillon. The most famous adversary of the idea that Plato had unwritten teachings is Harold Fredrik Cherniss. His opinion is that Aristotle had merely misunderstood the Platonic dialogues. The main arguments in favor of Plato’s oral teachings are: the criticism of writing in the Phaedrus, indirect tradition that speaks about theories that cannot be found in Plato’s dialogues, the dialogues make reference beyond text, the Seventh Letter attests Plato’s esoteric doctrine, also Aristotle attests Plato’s Unwritten doctrines (agrapha dogmata).

  • The Net in the Sea: a Note to Plotinus' En. IV 3(27).9.34–44
    Graeco-Latina Brunensia 24 / 2019 / 2 https://doi.org/10.5817/GLB2019-2-16 The Net in the Sea: A Note to Plotinus’ En. IV 3(27).9.34–44 Sonja Weiss (University of Ljubljana) Abstract In Plotinus’ first treatise, On the Problems of the Soul, the comparison of the cosmic body float- ČLÁNKY / ARTICLES ing in the soul to a net in the sea is simple enough, at least at first glance. While most of the translators and experts have no doubts that the net in this metaphor stands for the body and the sea for the soul, a few of them are doubtful as to whether the analogy is as self-evident as it seems. This is particularly true of the second part of the metaphor, casting the universal soul as the sea, and thus presenting a striking contrast to the prevalent symbolism of the sea and water in general. The uncertainty of this Plotinian image leads us to investigate two relevant philosophical concepts, namely flux and infinity, which in Plotinus are applied to very different contexts: the former is generally related to the fluctuating nature of the sensible world, but is also present in the image of the One as inexhaustible spring. Similarly, we have a concept of infinity applied to the ungraspable bodiless matter on the one hand, as well as to the limitless power of Being on the other. I believe that Plotinus, refusing to be limited by the established meaning of the current philosophical imagery, is consciously using these ambiguities to refine his arguments, possibly as a polemic against rival philosophical doctrines.

  • Farewell to Freedom:A Western Genealogy of Liberty
    CHAPTER 2 The Christian World Until the Threshold of Modernities 2.1 – Christianities Before the Papal Revolution Though Philo’s short treatise ‘Every good man is free’186 does not seem particularly original, it is a veritable compendium of Stoic and Neoplatonist ideas, which are composed187 with the author’s 186 The original title is Περὶ τοῦ πάντα σπουδαίον ελεύθερον εἶναι [Peri tou panta spou- daion eleutheron einai]; in Latin, Quod Omnis Probus Liber Sit. This work is properly only the second part of a larger one: Philo himself alludes to the title of the first and missing half, Περὶ τοῦ δοῦλον εἶναι πάντα φαῦλον [Peri tou doulon einai panta phaulon], Every bad man is a slave. In Philo, Philo, vol. 9, F. H. Colson trans. (London: Heinemann, 1941), 1–101. 187 Here I am using the operation of composition in the sense that Deleuze and Guat- tari give to the French term agencement. By conjoining Greek philosophy and Jewish Scriptures, Philo does not simply construct a new interpretation of both of them, but he produces a new theoretical object. See Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, Mille How to cite this book chapter: Baldissone, R 2018 Farewell to Freedom: A Western Genealogy of Liberty. Pp. 37–63. London: University of Westminster Press.

Hence, when Philo quotes Sophocles: ‘God is my ruler, and no mortal man,’188 he means the god of the Bible. Whilst after two millennia of Christianities we no longer notice this shift, Philo’s writings immediately precede early Christian texts, and subsequent Christian authors are eager189 to follow Philo’s appro- priation of classical culture.190 For example, Eusebius makes an ample excerpt of the essay,191 and Ambrose paraphrases it without quoting its author.192 Plateaux: Capitalisme et schizophrénie, 2 (Paris: Éditions de Minuit, 1980), 10.

  • Marital Celibacy in the Cappadocians and Augustine
    IS EVERYBODY DOING IT? MARITAL CELIBACY IN THE CAPPADOCIANS AND AUGUSTINE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Sandy Lynn Haney December 2014 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Vasiliki M. Limberis, Advisory Chair, Department of Religion Dr. Jeremy Schipper, Department of Religion Dr. Elizabeth S. Bolman, Department of Art History Fr. Allan Fitzgerald, O.S.A., Director of the Augustinian Institute and member of the Department of Theology and Religious Studies, Villanova University Dr. C. Christopher Soufas, External Reader, Department of Spanish and Portuguese ii © Copyright 2014 by Sandy Lynn Haney __________________________ All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Sources from the late antique and Byzantine eras attest that some Christian spouses adopted marital celibacy, or married persons’ abstention from sexual intimacy, as an ascetic practice. The prevalent scholarship on marital celibacy has all too often read later practices of marital celibacy into earlier texts, due to scholars’ tendency to universalize ascetic practice. This study endeavors to dismantle such universalizing by demonstrating the differences among four church fathers’ approaches and attitudes toward marital celibacy, assuming neither the popularity of the practice nor the immediate affirmation of its necessity for marital ascetic piety. The dissertation explores the theme of marital celibacy in the works of four of the most influential men of the late fourth and early fifth centuries—Gregory of Nazianzus, Gregory of Nyssa, Basil of Caesarea, and Augustine of Hippo—through a careful analysis of various sources, from funeral orations to hagiographies, to sermons to dogmatic treatises, to letters and to monastic rules.

  • Plato Bibliography 2010-2011 by Luc Brisson, CNRS Paris
    Plato Bibliography 2010-2011 by Luc Brisson, CNRS Paris Bibliographie Platonicienne 2010-2011 par Luc Brisson, CNRS Paris Plato Bibliography 2010-2011 This bibliography, based on a Lustrum-type model, consists of two lists: a list of the editions and translations of Plato's works, and a list of studies on Plato and his works, arranged according to the alphabetical order of their author's name. These lists are preceded by a complete directory of sources – periodicals, proceedings, studies in honor of and collections – enabling the reader to precisely locate all listed articles. This bibliography does not, however, include commentaries, a directory of critical reviews nor an analytical Index. Nonetheless, I trust that in its present state this work will prove useful to the readers of the Études platoniciennes. My goal was twofold: to establish the most complete and accurate list of works, published in 2010 and 2011 on Plato and his works; and to take into account all those earlier studies not mentioned in the bibliographies previously published in this journal . I hope these directions in English will simplify the use of this bibliography produced in French. I would like to express my gratitude to Sébastien Grignon, who allowed me to consult the proofs of volume 80 of l'Année Philologique, to Tomoko Hatano, who provided me with a bibliography of works on Plato published in Japanese for 2010- 2011, and to Dimka Gocheva, who gave information on Bulgarian publications. I would also like to thank Michael Chase, Michel Christiansen and Wilfried Kühn for checking the accuracy of the references; and Dimitri El Murr, Richard Dufour, and Michel Narcy for helping to find documents.
