Taurus of Beirut : The Other Side of Middle Platonism, Paperback / softback Book

Taurus of Beirut : The Other Side of Middle Platonism Paperback / softback

Part of the Issues in Ancient Philosophy series

Paperback / softback

Description

This volume is the first monograph devoted to the philosophy of Taurus of Beirut, and provides a long-awaited analysis of his texts and their first English translation.

Through close examination of the extant witnesses, Petrucci gives a new account of Middle Platonism based on a fresh approach to the theological and cosmological view of Taurus.

In this way, the book contributes substantially to the debate on Post-Hellenistic Platonism from the point of view of both exegetical methods and philosophical doctrines, and offers a starting point for a new understanding of many aspects of ancient thought.
