Description

Explore the evolution of language and the mind through this scholarly study of the late Hellenistic and early Imperial periods (B.C. 50 - A.D. 300). This book by Routledge examines the development of linguistic theories found in the works of theologians and philosophers connected to Ancient Alexandria. As Judaism and Christianity grew within the cultural centers of the Roman Empire, Alexandria became a primary site for philosophical activity. This text investigates how these religious and philosophical movements shaped the understanding of language. It provides a necessary connection between the study of Later Greek philosophy and the writings of the Church Fathers. Readers will gain insight into the relationship between language and thought during a period of significant intellectual change. This work serves as a resource for those studying the history of philosophy, ancient linguistics, and the religious developments of the Roman Empire.
