by Fiona Leigh (editor)

About this book

Fiona Leigh edits a collection of studies in ancient theoretical and practical philosophy based on the Keeling Memorial Lectures. The contributions revisit problems in Plato, Aristotle and Hellenistic thought through close analysis of particular texts and arguments.

Topics include agreement and justice, knowledge and belief in the Phaedo, causation, the soul in the Timaeus and the role of rules in Aristotle's ethics. Other chapters consider Stoic moral development, Cicero's approach to philosophical debate and the relationship between Stoic logic and Frege. First published as a volume in 2021, it includes a bibliography and detailed indexes.
