These dialogues - on good and evil, truth and falsehood, life and death - are historical re-enactments of what persons representing the major Hellenistic schools of philosophy might actually have said to one another in informal but serious discussion and debate. The inclusion of the Buddhist-like arguments of ancient Pyrrhonian sceptics - which challenge the dogmatic Stoics, Epicureans, and Academic nihilists - results in a powerful unique view of the secular Hellenistic schools of antiquity, and of their continued importance to modern secular thinking about how to live in a world without divine intervention. \u003cem\u003eAncient Evenings\u003c\/em\u003e is in the spirit of great dialogues from Plato to Cicero, and Berkeley to Hume. It brings back to life the neglected literary form of the philosophical dialogue as a potent and unique instrument of philosophical inquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adrian Kuzminski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1788361199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781788361194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Imprint Academic (Ips)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.51d","brand":"Adrian Kuzminski","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110953210111,"sku":"9781788361194","price":29.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_38b717eb-174f-4212-a84a-9ca49b245942.jpg?v=1725470244","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ancient-evenings-adrian-kuzminski-9781788361194","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
