Download or read book Outlines From Plato an Introduction to Greek Metaphysics Classic Reprint written by Frederick Percy Long and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines From Plato, an Introduction to Greek Metaphysics The author, however, admits that his original design was not to illustrate Plato. It was rather to put into Greek dress the more permanent problems of Metaphysics in all ages, and to show that the questions which to-day divide philosophers were most of them raised and debated years ago by the Greeks, with all the additional power and lucidity that their unrivalled language lent them. Such an object proved subsequently to be chimerical and, having determined to draw his illustrations of these problems from the writings of Plato, the compiler was gradually obliged to limit himself to a rudimentary exegesis of Plato. That this contains very likely many serious defects he is well aware, but he trusts that they are not of sufficient moment seriously to mislead beginners.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines From Plato, an Introduction to Greek Metaphysics This selection of passages is primarily intended for students of the Oxford school of Literae Humaniores, but the compiler hopes that it may also be found useful by any others who are commencing their study of Plato, on its metaphysical or logical side. Some slight experience of teaching, coupled with his own recollection of early days, has convinced him that merely to give pupils a list of references to parallel passages, bearing on any particular point under discussion, is in most cases quite inadequate. And yet no single dialogue, not even one so comprehensive as the Republic, can be understood without a knowledge of much contained elsewhere; and to know all about one involves knowing something about all. The author, however, admits that his original design was not to illustrate Plato. It was rather to put into Greek dress the more permanent problems of Metaphysics in all ages, and to show that the questions which to-day divide philosophers were most of them raised and debated years ago by the Greeks, with all the additional power and lucidity that their unrivalled language lent them.

The author illustrates their ideas on art and beauty by close reference to their texts and finds a profound similarity which unites them, revealing many of their differences to be complementary aspects of an essentially similar viewpoint.

Download or read book Aristotle s Metaphysics in English Latin and Ancient Greek written by Aristotle and published by . This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a trilingual edition of Aristotle's Metaphysics. Each paragraph has an English, Latin and (original) Ancient Greek rendition. Students of Classics or anyone interested in ancient philosophy and languages should find in this trilingual edition an a helpful device to approach Aristotle original Greek. The English translation is David Ross' (1908), and the Latin comes from William of Moerbeke's medieval translation. At the end of the volume readers can find an outline of Ancient Greek grammar in tables and graphic explanations. parenthetically, William of Moerbeke's translation was commissioned by Thomas Aquinas, who wanted a Latin rendition as close as possible to the original Greek. As a result, the Latin version does violence at times to the normal Latin syntax, but is very useful for language learning when read in parallel with Aristotle's original text.
