The book examines whether the internal dynamics of this philosophical school allowed for a unity of Peripatetic thought, or a fundamental tension between philosophical creativity and the notions of core teachings and canonisation. The book discusses the major philosophical preoccupations of the Peripatetics, interactions with Hellenistic schools of thought, and the shift in focus among Greek philosophers in a changing political landscape. It is the first book of its kind to provide a survey of this important philosophical tradition. 410 0$aAncient philosophies. 606 $aPeripatetics 606 $aPhilosophy, Ancient 615 0$aPeripatetics. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Ancient. 676 $a185 676 $a185 700 $aBaltussen$b Han.$0616752 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155136203321 996 $aThe peripatetics$92295937 997 $aUNINA
