Aristotle, Parmenides and Becoming God
With all the new translations and textbooks coming out on the list lately, I haven’t had a chance to blog about our monograph publishing for a while. But the steady stream of cutting-edge scholarship publishing in our various monograph series continues apace and I am delighted to be able to tell you about not one, not two, but three new titles recently published in the Continuum Studies in Ancient Philosophy series. Techne in Aristotle’s Ethics by Tom Angier (University of Kent) argues for the importance of the concept of ‘techne’ in constructing a new understanding of Aristotle’s moral philosophy. Parmenides, Plato and Mortal Philosophy by Vishwa Adluri (Hunter College, CUNY) explores Parmenides’ philosophy and its influence on Plato and other later thinkers through philosophical and literary analysis. And Becoming God by Patrick Lee Miller (Duquesne University) offers a lucid presentation of the first and most influential attempts to weave together philosophical thought on God, reason and happiness in early Greek philosophy. All three titles are available to preview below. Enjoy!
