Else Distinguished University Professor of Classical Studies at the University of Michigan. This wide-ranging conversation covers Richard Janko's research on the Derveni Papyrus, Europe's oldest surviving manuscript from the 4th century BCE and the most important text relating to early Greek literature, science, religion and philosophy to have come to light since the Renaissance. This carefully-edited book includes an introduction, Discovering the Past, and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter. Howard Burton was the Founding Director of Canada's Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. He holds a PhD in theoretical physics and an MA in philosophy. This book is part of an expanding series of 100+ Ideas Roadshow conversations, each one presenting a wealth of candid insights from a leading expert in a focused yet informal setting to provide a uniquely accessible window into frontline research and scholarship that wouldn't otherwise be encountered through standard lectures and textbooks.Ideas Roadshow Conversations Philosophy, AncientPhilosophy, Ancient.180Burton HowardMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828734203321Derveni papyrus989875UNINA
