Yet the history of its reception in Antiquity has been little studied. The present volume therefore proposes to examine not only the Platonic exegetical tradition surrounding this dialogue, which culminates in the commentaries of Damascius and Olympiodorus, but also its place in the reflections of the rival Peripatetic, Stoic, and Sceptical schools.\u003cbr\u003eThis volume thus aims to shed light on the surviving commentaries and their sources, as well as on less familiar aspects of the history of the \u003ci\u003ePhaedo\u003c\/i\u003e's ancient reception. By doing so, it may help to clarify what ancient interpreters of Plato can and cannot offer their contemporary counterparts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sylvain Delcomminette\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004282173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004282179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.20w x 1.00d","brand":"Sylvain Delcomminette","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47520657506559,"sku":"9789004282179","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9d1f8bbb-7740-48a9-a356-8aa35b076607.jpg?v=1762886384","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ancient-readings-of-platos-phaedo-sylvain-delcomminette-9789004282179","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
