Description

Explore the complex theological doctrines of Plato through this scholarly study by Gerd Van Riel. As part of the Ashgate Studies in the History of Philosophical Theology, this book provides a detailed re-valuation of the status of Plato's gods and the connection between metaphysics and theology. This work begins with an examination of Plato's views on religion and how religion relates to morality. It investigates the unique ways Plato discusses the gods, revealing a variety of different perspectives. Readers will discover how Plato views the gods as perfect moral actors, as cosmological principles, or as celestial bodies, all while staying true to tradition. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in ancient Greek history, philosophy, and the development of theological thought. It offers a deep look into how Plato's innovative language shaped the understanding of the divine within his philosophical framework.
