Description

Explore the life and intellectual contributions of Heraclides of Pontus through this scholarly work from the Rutgers University Studies in Classical Humanities. As a student of Aristotle in Plato's Academy, Heraclides held a significant position in Greek thought, even serving as head of the Academy during Plato's third trip to Sicily. This volume examines his wide-ranging interests that spanned from cosmology to ethics. Readers will find detailed discussions regarding his views on the movements of the planets and the basic matter of the universe. The text covers his unique materialistic theory of the soul, which he believed was immortal and subject to reincarnation. Furthermore, the book explores his perspectives on pleasure and his commentary on Homeric poems, much like the methods used by Aristotle. This is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history of classical philosophy and literary theory.
