Living In A Disenchanted World, John Margiotta

This thesis draws on Allan Bloom and Martin Heidegger, among others, to articulate the communitarian vision of how Enlightenment philosophy has led the Western world into an age of philosophical and religious homelessness.
Aristotle On The Principles Of Perceptible Body (Gen. Corr. 2.1-3), David E. Hahm
Aristotle On The Principles Of Perceptible Body (Gen. Corr. 2.1-3), David E. Hahm
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
With his clarification of the philosophical significance of the Pre- Socratic theories of elements Aristotle completes his discussion of the principles of perceptible bodies. He had embarked on this subject with the intent of explaining the first bodies and their role as principles of genesis and destruction. Jumping off from the theories of the Ionian philosophers who first proposed simple elemental bodies as principles of change, he probed behind these to discover even more fundamental principles, one of which was anticipated by another Ionian and by his teacher Plato. These ultimate principles will become for Aristotle the foundation of all …

Anaximander And The Architects, Robert Hahn
Anaximander And The Architects, Robert Hahn
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
This essay is divided into several sections. In (B) I set out the problem of making a diagram or model of Anaximander's cosmos, then in (C) I outline the relevant fragments and testimony - for Anaximander's picture of the cosmos and its formation — from which a diagram or model might be constructed. Next, in (D) I invite the reader to reflect on the differences between plan and elevation perspectives: two ways of Imagining. In (D.l), evidence for plan and elevation perspectives in ancient Egyptian architecture is examined, and the contributing influence is considered; in (D.2) evidence for plan and …
Alexander On Form-In-Matter And The Breakdown Of Aristotle's Categories, John O. Ellis
Alexander On Form-In-Matter And The Breakdown Of Aristotle's Categories, John O. Ellis
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
My discussion is divided into six sections. In the first I provide some background to the form-in-matter problem in Aristotle; the second focusses on Alexander's solution to the problem; in the third, we consider Plotinus' contribution; in the fourth, there's brief treatment of the problem by the commentators on the Categories; and finally in the fifth section I look at what I call the 'Lucius problem' - this pertains directly to the substantial qualities doctrine, and it reveals, I suggest, how Alexander's way of solving the form-in-matter problem contributes to the breakdown of Aristotelian categories. In the sixth section …
Foundationalism, Coherentism, And Aristotle, Robin A. Smith
Foundationalism, Coherentism, And Aristotle, Robin A. Smith
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
It is the need to respond to various forms of relativism, with their nihilistic consequences for philosophy and science, that was the primary epistemological goal for Plato and Aristotle. Such a goal is a far more credible and a far more urgent one for them than the refutation of Cartesian radical skepticism, a position they do not even seem to take seriously.
Aristotle's Account Of Courage In En Iii.6-9, Howard Curzer
Aristotle's Account Of Courage In En Iii.6-9, Howard Curzer
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
I shall argue that Aristotle (a) does not limit courage to life- threatening situations on the battlefield; (b) is right to maintain that courage governs both fear and confidence; (c) applies a plausible doctrine of the mean to courage; (d) appropriately distinguishes courage from continence; and (e) does not affirm that courageous acts are overall pleasant for courageous people.

Character And Method In Plato's Republic, Mary Whitlock Blundell, Ruby Blondell
Character And Method In Plato's Republic, Mary Whitlock Blundell, Ruby Blondell
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
It is obvious enough that Plato's literary style, including his use of dramatic form and character, alters drastically along with his philosophical method. It is most economical, though not essential, to attribute these parallel changes to Plato's own chronological development. As Guthrie puts it, "Plato began by giving vivid pictures of Socrates engaged on his mission, and as he went on became more concerned to develop positive doctrines. He retains the dialogue form, but it becomes less dramatic and pictorial and he allows Socrates to indulge in uncharacteristically long discourses only punctuated by expressions of assent from the others" (HGP …

Were The Neoplatonists Itealists Or Realists?, John Bussanich
Were The Neoplatonists Itealists Or Realists?, John Bussanich
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
Although it is relatively uncontroversial to characterize all Platonists as metaphysical idealists or immaterialists, the ascription to some of them of explicit arguments for epistemological idealism is controversial and problematic. It will be necessary to consider Neoplatonic attitudes toward perception of an external material world, but also the direct intellectual "perception" of the Forms.

In a world which exhibits so much power and yet does so little to drive back underdevelopment, it is not to be wondered if the thinking endeavour is shrouded with the impression of being confronted with the greatest enigma, with the most disconcerting sphinx of all times. However, concerning this most pressing and controversial issue of underdevelopment, of all the disciplines which study man, philosophy is the one which until now said the least. Is this due to simple insensitiveness, or to pure neglect, or to the feeling of not being directly concerned? Whatever the reasons may be, the simple …

The Truth Of Antiphon's 'Truth', Michael Gagarin
The Truth Of Antiphon's 'Truth', Michael Gagarin
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
My intention in this paper is to explore some of the implications of the fact that the fifth century sophistic thinker Antiphon entitled his main "sophistic" treatise, published in two books. Truth (Alêtheia). As in the case of Protagoras' treatise of the same name, this title may be understood as an indication that Antiphon is responding to Parmenides' "Way o f Truth" and is affirming his own view of the truth about the world, that physis is more real or truer than nomos, or in other words, statements are true if and only if they correspond to physis, but not …
Some Ways Of Being In Plato, Allan Silverman
Some Ways Of Being In Plato, Allan Silverman
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
I propose to examine on this occasion three closely related issues in the interpretation of Plato's metaphysics, the separation of Forms, participation, and the nature of particulars. In the compass of this talk, I cannot do justice to all three of these issues, indeed probably to none of them. A fortiori, I cannot do a semblance of justice to the closely related topics of predication, both ontological and linguistic; the status of Aristotle's remarks about Plato's metaphysics and his own treatment of these issues, or the vexing problem of the development of Plato’s thinking. Nonetheless, I cannot avoid these topics. …

The Birth Of Logic, John Corcoran
The Birth Of Logic, John Corcoran
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
The last two decades have witnessed a debate concerning whether Aristotle's syllogistic is a system of deductive discourses having epistemic import exemplifying an Aristotelian theory of deductive reasoning and justifying the claim that Aristotle is the founder of logic taken as the scientific study of proof or whether, on the contrary, the syllogistic is a system of true propositions of a theory of classes justifying the claim that Aristotle is the founder of logic is taken as the scientific study of formal relations such as class inclusion. An epistemically-oriented interpretation has been contending with an ontically-oriented interpretation. This debate should …
Plato On The Souls Of Beasts, Eve Browning (Cole)
Plato On The Souls Of Beasts, Eve Browning (Cole)
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
Although Plato's emphasis on rationality and calculative reason, along with his faith in the soul's immortality, place him well to mark a clear-cut distinction between the human and the beast, that clear distinction is somewhat difficult to locate. While there is no strong evidence that Plato was inclined to attribute human-like cognitive capabilities to animals, the absence of extended textual engagements with animal cognition make this an uncertain issue. And in the moral domain, there do seem to be texts which suggest that a kind of natural virtue may be found among animals. These appear in the Laws. and are …

Nietzsche And The Future Of The University, Gary Shapiro
Nietzsche And The Future Of The University, Gary Shapiro
Philosophy Faculty Publications
Nietzsche's first generation of readers tended to see him as a thinker, philosopher or prophet of the future; he was the teacher of the superman, the transvaluator of all values, the founder of a new philosophy of the will to power. In the many discourses of the early twentieth century that are devoted in various ways to 'Nietzsche and the Future' there are obvious signs of the nineteenth century cult of progress, although interpreted divergently by social Darwinism, socialism or anarchism. Now we are more sophisticated. Those first readers saw Nietzsche as radicalizing and rewriting the modernist metanarrative (substituting the …
Division And Explanation In Aristotle's Parts Of Animals, Allan Gotthelf
Division And Explanation In Aristotle's Parts Of Animals, Allan Gotthelf
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
The nature and proper methods of logical division, διαίρεσις, are important concerns in at least four of Plato’s later dialogues, and reflections on the process may even have led Plato to a revised conception of the very nature of a Form. The place of division in Aristotle’s Topics - both in the organization of some of its materials and as the method for seeking definitions which many of the topoi are designed to regulate - suggests the importance διαίρεσις must have had in the Academy, as does the Epicrates fragment and Aristotle’s criticism of alternative views of the nature or …
Plotinus On The Objects Of Thought, Eyolfur Emilsson
Plotinus On The Objects Of Thought, Eyolfur Emilsson
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
The strong identity Plotinus maintains between the intellect and its objects, the ideas, can be explained in terms of his acceptance of certain sceptical arguments; in particular he holds that unless the subject and the object of thought are strictly identical, there is room for doubt and error. Moreover, I suppose that Plotinus believed that without this identity the traditional account of the forms as at once ontological and epistemological standards cannot hold. Thus, I am suggesting that we see Plotinus' position here as that of a Platonist who says to his fellow Platonists: if you wish to hold, as …
