Opis

The ancient Greek philosopher Antiphon was a contemporary of Socrates who lived in the fifth century BCE Athens. Antiphon wrote several major works, which have survived only in very fragmentary form. All that is known about these works as well as about Antiphon is included in this study. The material is translated, and its significance assessed in a detailed commentary that addresses the numerous problems raised by the fragmentary material. Antiphon's contribution to the wider history of ideas is addressed in conclusion.

Recenzje

Review of the hardback: '… a worthy addition to a famous series. The book is designed and destined to become the standard text … a foundational text which is unlikely to be superseded for many decades … we needed this book to give us a firm basis for future work.' The Heythrop Journal
