Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stoic Moralists, and the Christians, in the First Two Centuries: Being the Donnellan Lectures for the Year 1879-80, Preached in the Chapel of Trinity College, Dublin IN sending forth a Second Edition of this little book, I desire to mention that I have learned with much satis faction that many of the National School Teachers of the country have received it very kindly. Their appreciation of my notice of some of the great labourers in the schools of morals and philosophy, showed a sympathy with these subjects in a position very different, indeed, from that of the ancients, but still connected with youth and the formation of character. Such a Spirit in the teacher of an elementary school would probably, I would conceive, diffuse itself among his scholars; and its spread, I cannot but think, would be of far greater value to the youth in their after-life, than many of the subjects of his school course, on which he laboured very diligently and properly to earn result fees. Seeing the admitted failure of the ancient moralists, we are on the way, I trust, to value the vantage ground from which, in more favoured times, the principles of life and conduct may be taught.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highlighting the place of Stoic teaching in early Christian thought, an international roster of scholars challenges the prevailing view that Platonism was the most important philosophical influence on early Christianity.

  • Pages : 344 pages

Download or read book One True Life written by C. Kavin Rowe and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking, cross-disciplinary work of philosophy and biblical studies, New Testament scholar C. Kavin Rowe explores the promise and problems inherent in engaging rival philosophical claims to what is true. Juxtaposing the Roman Stoics Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius with the Christian saints Paul, Luke, and Justin Martyr, and incorporating the contemporary views of Jeffrey Stout, Alasdair McIntyre, Charles Taylor, Martha Nussbaum, Pierre Hadot, and others, the author suggests that in a world of religious pluralism there is negligible gain in sampling from separate belief systems. This thought-provoking volume reconceives the relationship between ancient philosophy and emergent Christianity as a rivalry between strong traditions of life and offers powerful arguments for the exclusive commitment to a community of belief and a particular form of philosophical life as the path to existential truth.
