Clarendon Press Aristotle on Perception Clarendon Aristotle Series
Book SynopsisStephen Everson presents a comprehensive new study of Aristotle''s account of perception and related mental capacities. Recent debate about Aristotle''s theory of mind has focused on this account, which is Aristotle''s most sustained and detailed attempt to describe and explain the behaviour of living things. Everson places it in the context of Aristotle''s natural science as a whole, showing how he applies the explanatory tools developed in other works to the study of perceptual cognition. Everson demonstrates that, contrary to the claims of many recent scholars, Aristotle is indeed concerned to explain perceptual activity as the activity of a living body, in terms of material changes in the organs which possess the various perceptual capacities. By emphasizing the unified nature of the perceptual system, Everson is able to explain how Aristotle accounts for our ability to perceive not only such things as colours and sounds but material objects in our environment. This rich and broad-ranging book will be essential reading not only for students of Aristotle''s theory of mind but for all those concerned to understand the explanatory principles of his natural science. ''No part of Aristotle''s psychological theory has been of greater interest to scholars over the past few years than his account of perception. . . . this excellent book . . . will appeal to Aristotelian scholars and philosophers of mind alike . . . Everson manifests a thorough understanding of much of the literature on Aristotle''s psychological theory and displays a talent for offering sophisticated arguments that are informed by the conceptual possibilities demarcated in both ancient and modern philosophy . . . Everson has presented a rich and insightful critique of a thesis which has had significant impact upon contemporary discussions of Aristotle''s psychological theory. Further, in offering ths critique, he has avoided many of the snares and entanglements to which others have fallen prey.'' John E. Sisko, Oxford Studies in Ancient PhilosophyTrade ReviewHis treatment of perception as one case of Aristotle's general explanation of natural change, including mental changes, is a very fruitful one. * Richard Wallace, Greece and Rome *although it is a tough read, it is rich and rewarding. * Robin Waterfield, Heythrop Journal *E's discussion is philosophically refined: and his reader is expected to have a nodding acquantaince with various notions in contemporary philosophical psychology ... The book is good enough to deserve detailed criticism. Indeed, I am not sure that I have read a better book on Aristotle's psychology. I enjoyed it, and I learned from it. It is rare that such things can be said about a book on ancient philosophy. * Jonathan Barnes, The Classical Review *Spiritualists and materialists alike will learn from reading this book. * Allan Siverman, Ancient Philosophy 19, 1999 *Table of ContentsINTRODUCTION; 1.

Clarendon Press The Ethics of Philodemus
Book SynopsisVoula Tsouna presents a comprehensive study of the ethics of the Epicurean philosopher Philodemus, who taught Virgil, influenced Horace, and was praised by Cicero. His works have only recently become available to modern readers, through the decipherment of a papyrus carbonized by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. Tsouna examines Philodemus'' theoretical principles in ethics, his contributions to moral psychology, his method, his conception of therapy, and his therapeutic techniques. Part I begins with an outline of the fundamental principles of Philodemus'' ethics in connection with the canonical views of the Epicurean school, and highlights his own original contributions. In addition to examining central features of Philodemus'' hedonism, Tsouna analyses central concepts in his moral psychology, notably: his conception of vices, which she compares with that of the virtues; his account of harmful or unacceptable emotions or passions; and his theory of corresponding acceptable emotionsTrade ReviewReview from previous edition A fine book on important and challenging texts. I am grateful for the substantial benefits she has provided to scholars of Epicureanism. * Polis: The Journal for Ancient Political Thought *an immensely valuable basis for further work on Philodemus. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *Table of ContentsAcknowledgements ; Abbreviations ; Preface ; 1.

Oxford University Press Plato
Book SynopsisThe Laws is Plato''s last and longest dialogue. Although it has been neglected (compared to such works as the Republic and Symposium), it is beginning to receive a great deal of scholarly attention. Book 10 of the Laws contains Plato''s fullest defence of the existence of the gods, and his last word on their nature, as well as a presentation and defence of laws against impiety (e.g. atheism). Plato''s primary aim is to defend the idea that the gods exist and that they are good - this latter meaning that they do not neglect human beings and cannot be swayed by prayers and sacrifices to overlook injustice. As such, the Laws is an important text for anyone interested in ancient Greek religion, philosophy, and politics generally, and the later thought of Plato in particular. Robert Mayhew presents a new translation, with commentary, of Book X of the Laws. His primary aim in the translation is fidelity to the Greek. His commentary focuses on philosophical issues (broadly understood to incluTrade ReviewReview from previous edition The Laws is rewarding reading and offers a great vista of Plato's last political and philosophical thoughts ... Out of its twelve books, Book 10 is, philosophically, the most important one. Robert Mayhew's volume is a valuable resource for those interested in this book, especially for those who are first time readers of the Laws. * Catalin Partenie, Rhizai *This is a book that anyone seriously interested in Plato's Laws will want to consult ... a clear, useful, and judicious examination of a too-long neglected text. I have no doubt that it will both stimulate new interest in Laws 10 and provide a sturdy foundation for further study of it. * Nathan Powers, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *this book will prove to be eminently useful to students and scholars * James Wood, POLIS *Table of ContentsPreface ; Introduction ; Translation ; Commentary ; Textual notes ; Bibliography ; Index locorum ; General index
