Description
This comprehensive introduction traces the principal doctrines of Stoic, Epicurean and sceptical traditions from 323 BC to around 200 AD, offering readers a clear pathway through three major Hellenistic philosophical schools. Rather than following individual schools chronologically, the text organises discussion by topics, revealing the underlying issues that connect and distinguish these traditions whilst preserving the coherence of each system as a whole. Hellenistic philosophers are increasingly recognised as independent thinkers rather than mere successors to Plato and Aristotle, and this study positions them within their proper intellectual context. The book provides both accessibility and scholarly depth, making it suitable for students encountering these schools for the first time as well as those seeking a more nuanced understanding of how Stoicism, Epicureanism and Scepticism addressed fundamental questions about knowledge, ethics and the good life.

Key Features

Covers Stoic, Epicurean and sceptical doctrines spanning from 323 BC to approximately 200 AD with thematic rather than chronological organisation.

Emphasises the coherence of each philosophical system whilst clarifying what different Hellenistic schools share and how they fundamentally diverge.

Presents Hellenistic philosophers as independent thinkers emerging from the intellectual shadow of Plato and Aristotle.

Organised by topics rather than individual schools to reveal underlying philosophical issues and connections.
