4. Ancient Philosophy A simple guide to the early modern philosophers and their most influencial works. http://www.easyphilosophy.com/Ancient_Philosophy.asp

Home A-G Bacon Berkeley ... Encyclopedias Ancient Philosophy One of the problems with discussing any school of thought within a hugely diverse world is pinpointing which areas directly affected others in order to make the process easier to handle. A discussion of Western philosophy is a good example. There are about as many contributors to today's methods of Western thought as have been styles, sizes, and sales of ladies pants since philosophical thought changed to make it acceptable for ladies to wear pants. The term Western itself is often confusing. While the founding and product nations of the Western world are fairly easy to identify, there are many other countries and people which have had a direct influence on the development of schools of thought in our culture but are not considered Western. For example, most would not question the validity of the statement that our society is founded on Judeo-Christian principles. However, many forget that the Judeo tradition is at least in part an Eastern one; ancient Jewish kings knew how to decorate with words at a gathering long before the Grecian forebears had banded in cities. For the most ancient roots of Western philosophy, then, we must not look to the Classical countries but even further East, to Israel, Palestine, and even Babylon. All of these nations had a direct impact on the formulation of Western philosophy, although it would not be until the rise of the Roman Empire that these traditions became fused with those that brought us the idea of

International Catholic University Ancient Philosophy Lesson Two: Appearance and Reality (Parmenides) 1. The Enigma of Parmenides The poem of Parmenides as it has come down to us consists of a prologue and then the way of seeming and the way of being. In the prologue Parmenides establishes his credentials as someone to listen to. He tells of being swept up in a chariot to heaven where the way of truth was revealed to him. What is the way of truth? Being is being and not-being is not-being. That seems fairly clear, but what Parmenides takes this to mean is that change and multiplicity are impossible. If there were two beings, A and B, A as being A would not be B, and of course vice versa. But this is to say that what is is not, and that is an abomination, a violation of the way of truth. So, too, with change. That which changes would be what it is but not what it becomes; thus being would become non-being. On these rather abstract bases, Parmenides denies the reality of multiplicity and change. Being is one and changeless. He likens it to an utterly homogeneous sphere. It is easier to grasp the Parmenidean doctrine in the abstract than to try to visualize it. And, of course, students will soon feel uneasy about the relation between themselves and Being. There would seem to be an inescapable duality between Parmenides talking about it and the being he is talking about. But it is the negative consequences of this austere doctrine that are crystal clear. If it is true it makes nonsense of pre-Parmenidean philosophy which, if Aristotle is right, is characterized by the search for the cause or causes of change.

Cite this entry Search the SEP Advanced Search Tools ... Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Ancient Skepticism First published Wed Feb 24, 2010 [Editor's Note: The following new entry by Katja Vogt replaces the former entry on this topic by the previous author.] Ancient skepticism is most centrally about belief, not knowledge. This reflects an intuition about rationality that is deeply different from modern ideas. The ancient skeptics argue that, if we cannot confidently claim knowledge, we should hold back from any kind of truth-claim. That is, we should hold back from belief, not just from knowledge-claims. As a consequence, the ancient skeptics face puzzles about thought, belief, language, and action. How far can one abstain from belief, and still lead a life that is recognizably the life of a rational animal? 1. The Central Questions 2. Skeptical Ideas in Early and Classical Greek Philosophy 2.1 Early Greek Philosophy 2.2 Plato ... Related Entries 1. The Central Questions The core concepts of ancient skepticism are belief, suspension of judgment, criterion of truth, appearances, and investigation. Important notions of modern skepticism such as knowledge, certainty, justified belief, and doubt play no or almost no role. This is not to say that the ancients would not engage with questions that figure in today's philosophical discussions. Ancient debates address questions that today we associate with epistemology and philosophy of language, as well as with theory of action, rather than specifically with the contemporary topic of skepticism. They focus on the nature of belief, the way in which belief figures in our mental lives, and the relationship of belief to speech and action.

HOME HELP Article Bibliography ... Ancient philosophy DAVID SEDLEY Ancient philosophy The philosophy of the Greco-Roman world from the sixth century bc to the sixth century ad laid the foundations for all subsequent Western philosophy. Its greatest figures are Socrates (fifth century bc ) and Plato and Aristotle (fourth century bc ). But the enormously diverse range of further important thinkers who populated the period includes the Presocratics and Sophists of the sixth and fifth centuries bc ; the Stoics, Epicureans and sceptics of the Hellenistic age; and the many Aristotelian and (especially) Platonist philosophers who wrote under the Roman Empire, including the great Neoplatonist Plotinus. Ancient philosophy was principally pagan, and was finally eclipsed by Christianity in the sixth century ad , but it was so comprehensively annexed by its conqueror that it came, through Christianity, to dominate medieval and Renaissance philosophy. This eventual symbiosis between ancient philosophy and Christianity may reflect the fact that philosophical creeds in late antiquity fulfilled much the same role as religious movements, with which they shared many of their aims and practices. Only a small fraction of ancient philosophical writings have come down to us intact. The remainder can be recovered, to a greater or lesser extent, by piecing together fragmentary evidence from sources which refer to them.

International Catholic University Ancient Philosophy Lesson Three: Plato's Theory of Forms 1. The Socratic Method In the early dialogues, Socrates is often shown in the company of someone who professes to know something Socrates himself claims not to know. One of the therapeutic functions of the Socratic method is to bring out the fact that many pretend to knowledge they do not in fact have. Removing a false claim to know clears the way for a humbled pursuit of knowledge. One who says he knows what virtue is will often reply, when prodded by Socrates, to give instances of virtue. What is virtue? Well, courage is a virtue and so is temperance. And Socrates will reply that he did not ask what things we say are virtues. He wanted to know what these things possess that leads us to called them virtues. In short, Socrates wants a definition, not a list of things to which an undefined term applies. This insistence (that knowing what a thing is is not simply to be able to mention other things that share a name with it) is not made only when it is a question of types of a thing. If for example, in reply to the question "What is virtue?" I should answer, "Well, bravery is a virtue" and Socrates would continue, asking "What is courage?" and I replied by giving examples of courageous acts, he would be equally dissatisfied. What do these instances have that leads us to call them acts of bravery? We can recognize the individual things around us and notice that some of them share a common term or name. There are lots of acorns on the lawn. What is an acorn? One of those things lying on the lawn. But my mother-in-law is also lying on the lawn, and she and my wife would object to her being classified as a nut. Socrates presses his interlocutor to tell him

For More Information Photo by Genevieve Shiffrar Joint Program in Ancient Philosophy This program is offered jointly by the Departments of Classics and Philosophy. It is administered by an interdepartmental committee whose members are: John Ferrari, Department of Classics Anthony Long, Department of Classics The program is designed to produce scholars with a broad range of expertise both in philosophy and classics, with the intention of bridging the gap between the two subjects. It provides the training and specialist knowledge required for undertaking research in ancient philosophy, and at the same time equips students for scholarly work and teaching in either classics or philosophy. Those who complete the program will be qualified to work as a full member of one of these disciplines, while having developed a broad competence in the other. Students apply for admission to either of the participating departments in accordance with their qualifications and interests. They are treated accordingly as graduate students fully in either the Departnent of Classics or the Department of Philosophy. The program offers graduate students of Classics the opportunity of taking classes in philosophy as an integral part of their work. It offers graduate students of philosophy the opportunity to develop their knowledge of both classical languages, and to make a thorough study of Graeco-Roman culture. Students from the two departments will meet each other regularly both in seminars on ancient philosophical texts and in reading groups and colloquia. Seminar offerings from the two departments are designed to give students, during their years in the program, the opportunity to study a wide variety of topics, including the Presocratics, Plato, Aristotle, Hellenistic philosophy and the philosophy of later antiquity.

As we move chronologically from Xenophon to Plotinus, we go from an author who does not distinguish between the two terms, to an author who has little use for because it is so far from reality. It is in Aristotle that we find the basis for something like the modern opposition between as pure theory and as practice. Yet even Aristotle refers to or craft as itself also that is informed by knowledge of forms. In the Republic this knowledge is the indispensable basis for the philosophers' craft of ruling in the city. Picking up another theme in Plato's dialogues, the Stoics develop the idea that virtue is a kind of or craft of life, one that is based on an understanding of the universe. The relation, then, between and in ancient philosophy offers an interesting contrast with our own notions about theory (pure knowledge) and (experience-based) practice. There is an intimate positive relationship between and , as well as a fundamental contrast.

Ancient Philosophy Ancient philosophy - This page lists some links to ancient philosophy , although for Western thinkers prior to Socrates, see Pre-Socratic philosophy. In Europe, the spread of Christianity through the Roman world marked the end of Hellenistic philosophy and ushered in the beginnings of Medieval philosophy. Western philosophy - Western philosophy is a line of related philosophical thinking, beginning in Ancient Greece, and including the predominant philosophical thinking of Europe and its former colonies, and continues to this day. The concept of philosophy itself originated in the West, derived from the ancient Greek word philosophia (φιλοσοφια); literally, "the love of wisdom" (philein = "to love" + sophia = wisdom, in the sense of theoretical or cosmic insight). Aztec philosophy - Aztec philosophy was the school of philosophy developed by the Aztec Empire. The Aztecs had a well developed school of philosophy, perhaps the most developed in the Americas and in many ways comprable to Greek philosophy, even amassing more texts than the ancient Greeks (Mann, 121). Transcendence (philosophy) - In philosophy , transcendental/transcendence, has three different but related primary meanings, all of them derived from the word's literal meaning (from Latin), of climbing or going beyond: one that originated in Ancient philosophy, one in Medieval philosophy and one in modern philosophy.

Home Contact us Libraries Yale University ... Workshops Ancient Philosophy at Yale At Yale, we have a large and active research community in ancient philosophy, including three faculty specialists in the Philosophy and Classics departments and three faculty members in other departments with expertise on ancient philosophy and related areas of research. Taken together, these professors specialize in all major periods of ancient philosophy (Presocratics, Plato, Aristotle, Hellenistic Philosophy, later ancient philosophy (especially the Aristotelian commentary tradition) and all major areas of ancient philosophy (such as logic, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, philosophy of science, ethics, philosophy of religion). Yale’s Philosophy Department is known for its strength in the history of philosophy as well as for its long tradition of successful integration of history of philosophy and systematic philosophy. Such integration is exemplified by the fact that a large number of its faculty teach and pursue research in both areas. In any one year, Yale typically hosts several talks in ancient philosophy given by distinguished ancient philosophers from all over the world, sponsored by the Departments of Classics and Philosophy or by our very active Working Group in Ancient Philosophy. In addition, in recent years, a number of distinguished ancient philosophy specialists have visited at Yale for longer periods ranging from one week to a semester. Yale is also home to the Yale-King’s College London Plato Republic seminar, which takes place annually, over five days, and rotates between London and Yale.
