Description

Explore the origins of the universe with Ancient Greek Cosmogony from Bristol Classical Press. This work provides the first detailed and comprehensive account of ancient Greek theories regarding how the world began. Spanning the period from 800 BC to 600 AD, the text traces the evolution of thought from early creation myths to the complex cosmogonies developed by major Greek and Roman thinkers. Readers will examine the historical debate between Greek philosophical cosmogony and early Christian views. The book examines how Greek thinkers formulated perennial philosophical problems and provided scientific answers that shaped history. It includes studies on the atomists, who argued that our world was just one among many worlds. This is an essential resource for those studying the history of science and ancient philosophy.
