Our secondary goal is to try to relate Greek philosophical legacy with the posterior development of Western philosophy as well as with our modern human condition and experience.

Extractions: Faculty of Classics Faculty of Classics Faculty Index Teaching Staff Intro Philosophy Caucus Cambridge provides exceptional resources for postgraduate study in Ancient Philosophy and Ancient Science. Cambridge's Laurence Chair of Ancient Philosophy, originally created for F.M. Cornford in 1930, is the oldest Ancient Philosophy Professorship in the world. Its last four holders have been W.K.C. Guthrie, G.E.L. Owen, Myles Burnyeat, and Gisela Striker. The current Laurence Professor is David Sedley. Cambridge's range of expertise in ancient philosophy and science is so broad that virtually any research project in the field can be accommodated, in any period from Presocratic to Neoplatonist and Patristic philosophy. A wide variety of approaches and techniques may be pursued: analytic, historical, intercultural, philological, text-critical, papyrological, or interdisciplinary. The Faculty attracts numerous visiting scholars, some on extended stays of a year or more. Regular seminars are held to read Greek and Latin philosophical texts. The B Club, Cambridge's Ancient Philosophy society, holds open meetings three times a term to hear papers from invited speakers. Each May a five day colloquium is held, attracting many scholars from outside Cambridge.

FT December 2002: What Is Ancient Philosophy?

Extractions: Books In Review What Is Ancient Philosophy? What Is Ancient Philosophy? By Pierre Hadot. Translated by Michael Chase. Harvard University Press. 362 pp. $29.95. Reviewed by Benjamin Balint According to Pierre Hadot, a prominent historian of ancient thought and professor emeritus at the CollËge de France, philosophy todayspecialized, professional, and detached from lifeis but a shadow of its glorious Athenian past. But that is not the original part of his thesis. A wide array of modern minds have thought the same: Hegel lamented that philosophy is no longer practiced as a private art, as it was by the Greeks, Heidegger called for a return to the Greek grammar of being, and Kant claimed that the ancient Greek philosophers remained more faithful to the Idea of the philosopher than their modern counterparts have done. What is new in What Is Ancient Philosophy? is that its author confidently identifies Christianity as the agent of philosophys decline. In his latest book, first published in France in 1995, Hadot surveys with care the great schools of classical thoughtPlatonism, Aristotelianism>, Cynicism, Epicureanism, Stoicism, and Skepticismand argues that they share not only a drive to offer rational explanations of the world but also a conception of philosophy profoundly different from the way that discipline currently understands itself. As in his last book, Philosophy as a Way of Life , Hadot shows that unlike today, philosophers in the age of Platos Academy and Aristotles Lyceum

Extractions: S. Marc Cohen [faculty.washington.edu/ smcohen/arintro.htm] Philosophy Is Part of Daily Life If you think philosophy or, more specifically, ancient philosophy isn't for you, think again. You might be surprised at the number of borrowings from ancient philosophers you run across in daily life. From Protagoras we know that their are two sides to every question. From Diogenes Laertius we hear that appearances are deceitful. Lucretius wrote that nothing can be produced out of nothing. These are easy to understand, empirical bits of wisdom, seemingly different from that vast area of mysticism we call philosophy, but they are, nevertheless, philosophy. If we only had such limited chestnuts from Aristotle and Plato, the greatest masters of philosophy would probably be easier to know, but we don't. We have volumes discussing the meaning of life, reality, knowledge, the good, and much more.

II) Another important perspective sees esoteric traditions as undercurrents in western thought and religion. Historically, the most important early streams here are the teachings of Pythagoras and Plato and their followers. Once dominant in Greco-Roman thought, they were pushed to the margins by the rise of Christian orthodoxy.

http://ls.berkeley.edu/dept/classics/AncPhil.html

Extractions: Bernard Williams, Dept. of Philosophy 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.
Review Of Kingsley's
A Review of Peter Kingsley's ancient philosophy, Mystery and Magic. Peter Kingsley,ancient philosophy, Mystery and Magic Empedocles and Pythagorean Tradition.
http://www.cs.utk.edu/~mclennan/BA/Kingsley-rev.html

Extractions: Ancient Philosophy, Mystery and Magic Peter Kingsley, Ancient Philosophy, Mystery and Magic: Empedocles and Pythagorean Tradition. (Oxford University Press, 1995; papberback ISBN 0-19-815081-4; $24.95). Peter Kingsley has written an important book that should be high on the reading list of anyone interested in the roots of magic, alchemy and the mysteries in Western civilization. It is Ancient Philosophy, Mystery and Magic: Empedocles and Pythagorean Tradition. In the best tradition of scholarly writing, Kingsley documents all his sources, so interested readers can follow them up and form their own opinions. Reading his extensive footnotes is an education in itself; following them will keep you busy for months. (The reader will discover that reading Kingsley's journal papers, published bother earlier and later than the book, is especially rewarding.) Yet, for all his attention to detail, Kingsley is not pedantic. His text is very readable, and its snappy, almost breathless pace conveys the excitement of the exploration of a newly opened tomb, or of a mystery being solved (which is precisely what it is). Many of the connections demonstrated by Kingsley have been intuitively apparent to many of us working in the esoteric traditions, but he documents them and also reveals other, less obvious connections. His book will also familiarize a wider readership to important, but neglected earlier studies that would otherwise remain buried in an immense scholarly literature, which is often hostile to esotericism of any kind.

Extractions: Intelligent Systems And Their Societies Walter Fritz Ancient Philosophy Let us look at some of the more famous views of the world, namely Idealism, Realism, Nominalism, Materialism, Empiricism, Rationalism, and Skepticism. When reading about each one, each view of the world appears reasonable. Nevertheless, once we have read them all, we realize that they contradict each other. It seems that they cannot all be true. What happens when we review these views, considering what we now know about ISs ? (See: Intelligent Systems ) Let us be more specific. Which view would be the most appropriate for the artificial IS ? Once we have established an answer, is this view also reasonable for human beings? To do this, let us review the fundamental posture of each philosophy, by expressing that posture with our concepts , as defined in earlier pages: Idealism Realism Nominalism Materialism ... Skepticism So, what is our conclusion? We find that much is true in the ancient philosophies, and that their different points of view result mainly from vague definitions of "reality", whether this means mind only
