Standard stories that presented Socrates as the philosopher who simply denied the phenomenon, and Plato and Aristotle as rehabilitating it straightforwardly against Socrates, have been challenged in many different ways. Building on those challenges, this collective provides new, and in some cases opposed ways of reading well-known as well as more neglected texts. Its 13 contributions, written by experts in the field, cover the whole history of Greek ethics, from Socrates to Plotinus, through Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics (Cleanthes, Chrysippus, Epictetus).Philosophia antiqua ;v. 106.AkrasiaAkrasiaHistoryTo 1500EthicsGreecePhilosophy, AncientElectronic books.Akrasia.AkrasiaHistoryEthicsPhilosophy, Ancient.128/.3Bobonich Christopher778349Destrée Pierre947354MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455289603321Akrasia in Greek philosophy2219631UNINA
