The papers included in this volume exemplify the variety of topics and approaches now being used to understand the polyhedral image of one of the most fascinating and long-lasting intellectual phenomena in Western history. Cornelli’s paper opens the volume by charting the course of Pythagorean studies over the past two centuries. The remaining contributions range chronologically from Pythagoras and the early Pythagoreans of the archaic period (6th-5th centuries BCE) through the classical, hellenistic and late antique periods, to the eighteenth century. Thematically they treat the connections of Pythagoreanism with Orphism and religion, with mathematics, metaphysics and epistemology and with politics and the Pythagorean way of life.Studia praesocratica ;Bd. 5.Philosophy, AncientCongressesPythagoras and Pythagorean schoolCongressesPythagorean theoremCongressesPresocratics.Pythagoras.Pythagoreanism.Philosophy, AncientPythagoras and Pythagorean schoolPythagorean theorem182/.2Cornelli Gabriele327273Macris Constantinos1196679McKirahan Richard D186661MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787763503321On Pythagoreanism3699091UNINA
