“This Companion does a good job of introducing
students to the study of ancient philosophy…This book will
give students a sense of what working in the area of ancient
philosophy involves and may encourage them to develop some of the
requisite skills themselves rather than simply furnish another
source for regurgitation.” (The Classical Review, Vol
58 No. 1 2008)
–Daniel Devereux, University of Virginia
"[T]he Companion draws together a wealth of material, presented in accordance with the most recent scholarly standards for the interpretation of ancient philosophical texts. The Companion will be an excellent source-book for students interested in the study of ancient philosophy, as well as for scholars who are rethinking their views on well-known problems by considering the new perspectives offered." (Bryn Mawr Classical Review)
"A Companion to Ancient Philosophy is an extremely valuable aid for those interested in the study of ancient philosophy. The articles, written by leading figures in the field, provide the reader with a clear picture of the state of contemporary scholarship on all aspects of philosophy in the ancient world."–Daniel Devereux, University of Virginia
"This is an essential book not only for its information content,
but equally importantly, for its elucidation of research
methodology. It offers something fresh and original even to those
who have studied the field for a lifetime."
–Enrico Berti, Università degli Studi di
Padova
