However, no one so far has ever attempted to conduct a full analysis of the latter’s specific reception of Lucretius. The book attempts to show that Gassendi was the first to discuss almost the whole De rerum natura, as part of an ambitious project. He sought to provide a Christianized version of Lucretius’ theory or to develop an atomistic worldview “freed” from the many dangerous errors that were often imputed to atomism (impiety, debauchery, and irrationality). In particular, Gassendi developed a dialectical strategy that led him to recover a providential atomism, an Epicurean psychology that saves the immortality of the soul, and a Christian hedonism from the De rerum natura. The last goal was especially important. Gassendi here emerges as the culmination of a tradition of Christian philosophers, like Lorenzo Valla and Erasmus of Rotterdam, who have tried to merge Epicurean hedonism with the Christian religion. The volume could therefore attract both scholars of Antiquity and Renaissance/modern philosophy. It is also a rewarding reading for scholars of the reception of Latin poetry from a philosophical perspective.The book provides the first systematic reconstruction of the reception of Lucretius’ theological and ethical verses in the work of the early modern philosopher Pierre Gassendi (1592–1655). It argues that the latter was the first to "e and discuss almost the entire De rerum natura, intending to develop a modified version of Epicurean philosophy, compatible with the new science and the religious/ethical demands of Christianity.CICERO ;Volume 5.›Amicus Lucretius‹Amicus LucretiusChristianityAtomistic theology.Christian Hedonism.Lucretius.Pierre Gassendi.Christianity.230Piergiacomi Enrico1265193NjHacINjHaclBOOK996492065903316Amicus Lucretius2967051UNISA03914nam 22007575 450 991063989050332120260119103222.09783031213984(electronic bk.)978303121397710.1007/978-3-031-21398-4(MiAaPQ)EBC7165696(Au-PeEL)EBL7165696(CKB)25913948500041(DE-He213)978-3-031-21398-4(OCoLC)1363829320(EXLCZ)992591394850004120221223d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEngaging with Emotion /by Cynthia Whissell1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (271 pages)Behavioral Science and Psychology SeriesIncludes index.Print version: Whissell, Cynthia Engaging with Emotion Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023 9783031213977 Chapter 1.
