Galen and the World of Knowledge
ISBN: 9780521767514 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Galen is the most important medical writer in Graeco-Roman antiquity, and also extremely valuable for understanding Graeco-Roman thought and society in the second century AD. This volume of essays locates him firmly in the intellectual life of his period, and thus aims to make better sense of the medical and philosophical 'world of knowledge' that he tries to create. How did Galen present himself as a reader and an author in comparison with other intellectuals of his day? Above all, how did he fashion himself as a medical practitioner, and how does that self-fashioning relate to the...

Routines and Orgies: The Life of Peter Cundill, Financial Genius, Philosopher, and Philanthropist
ISBN: 9780773544727 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Peter Cundill (1938-2011) was highly regarded as one of the greatest value investors of his time, but he was also a teacher and mentor who was generous with his knowledge and shared the wealth of his experience with many aspiring investors. He was taken with Aldous Huxley's words that the "rhythm of human life is routine punctuated by orgies," and spent his life shaking off the quotidian tasks that dulled thought and striving for the excitement of new experiences. Supported by four decades of Cundill's meticulously kept daily journals, which are intimate, frank, self-admonishing, and...

Virtue, Norms, and Objectivity: Issues in Ancient and Modern Ethics
ISBN: 9780199264384 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For much of the twentieth century it was common to contrast the characteristic forms and preoccupations of modern ethical theory with those of the ancient world. However, the last few decades have seen a growing recognition that contemporary moral philosophy now has much in common with its ancient incarnation, in areas as diverse as virtue ethics and ethical epistemology. Christopher Gill has assembled an international team to conduct a fascinating exploration of the relationship between the two fields, exploring key issues in ancient ethics in a way that highlights their conceptual...

Personality in Greek Epic, Tragedy, and Philosophy: The Self in Dialogue
ISBN: 9780198152323 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is a major study of conceptions of selfhood and personality in Homer and Greek Tragedy and Philosophy. The focus is on the norms of personality in Greek psychology and ethics. Gill argues that the key to understanding Greek thought of this type is to counteract the subjective and individualistic aspects of our own thinking about the person. He defines an "objective-participant" conception of personality, symbolized by the idea of the person as an interlocutor in a series of psychological and ethical dialogues.

Naturalistic Psychology in Galen and Stoicism
ISBN: 9780199556793 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 450 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is a study of the psychological ideas of Galen (AD 129-c.210, the most important medical writer in antiquity) and Stoicism (a major philosophical theory in the Hellenistic and Roman periods), which Galen discussed extensively. Christopher Gill's main topics are psychology and bodily form, psychological functions, especially reason and emotion, and the therapy of emotions, and his aim is to provide both an informative scholarly discussion and an original analysis of this material. He claims that the two theories are complementary in ways not recognized in antiquity and that the...

The Person and the Human Mind: Issues in Ancient and Modern Philosophy
ISBN: 9780198244608 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This collection of essays explores analogous issues in classical and modern philosophy that relate to the concepts of person and human being. A primary focus is whether there are such analogous issues, and whether we can find in ancient philosophy a notion that is comparable to "person" as understood in modern philosophy. Essays on modern philosophy reappraise the validity of the notion of person, while essays on classical philosophy take up the related questions of what being "human" entails in ancient ethics and psychology, and whether we should regard ourselves as, essentially, human or...

Marcus Aurelius: Meditations, Books 1-6
ISBN: 9780199694839 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Christopher Gill provides a new translation and commentary on the first half of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, and a full introduction to the Meditations as a whole. The Meditations constitute a unique and remarkable work, a reflective diary or notebook by a Roman emperor, that is based on Stoic philosophy but presented in a highly distinctive way. Gill focuses on the philosophical content of the work, especially the question of how far it is consistent with Stoic theory as we know this from other sources. He argues that the Meditations are largely consistent with Stoic theory--more than has...

The Structured Self in Hellenistic and Roman Thought
ISBN: 9780199564378 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Christopher Gill offers a new analysis of what is innovative in Hellenistic - especially Stoic and Epicurean - philosophical thinking about selfhood and personality. His wide-ranging discussion of Stoic and Epicurean ideas is illustrated by a more detailed examination of the Stoic theory of the passions and a new account of the history of this theory. His study also tackles issues about the historical study of selfhood and the relationship between philosophy and literature, especially the presentation of the collapse of character in Plutarch's Lives, Senecan tragedy, and Virgil's Aeneid.
