Rövid leírás:

The Oxford Handbook of Roman Philosophy provides a thorough exploration of Roman philosophy as a valuable study in its own right. Topics covered include ethnicity, cultural identity, literary originality, the environment, Roman philosophical figures, epistemology, and ethics.

Hosszú leírás:
Several decades of scholarship have demonstrated that Roman thinkers developed in new and stimulating directions the systems of thought they inherited from the Greeks, and that, taken together, they offer many perspectives that are of philosophical interest in their own right. The Oxford Handbook of Roman Philosophy explores a range of such Roman philosophical perspectives through thirty-four newly commissioned essays. Where Roman philosophy has long been considered a mere extension of Hellenistic systems of thought, this volume moves beyond the search for sources and parallels and situates Roman philosophy in its distinctive cultural context.

The Oxford Handbook of Roman Philosophy emphasizes four features of Roman philosophy: aspects of translation, social context, philosophical import, and literary style. The authors adopt an inclusive approach, treating not just systematic thinkers such as Cicero and Augustine, but also poets and historians. Topics covered include ethnicity, cultural identity, literary originality, the environment, Roman philosophical figures, epistemology, and ethics.

This volume represents a magnificent treatment of a major period of European intellectual history... [It] provides a comprehensive overview of Roman philosophy, but it does much more than that. It invites a reflection on the broader nature of what Roman philosophy actually is and considers a manifold range of sources, including some more often considered literary, rather than philosophical. The volume makes a cogent argument for Roman philosophy as a distinctive phenomenon and a worthy object of study in its own right, rather than merely a poor derivative of a superior Greek original.
