{"product_id":"historical-dictionary-of-ancient-greek-anthony-preus-9781442246386","title":"Historical Dictionary of Ancient Greek Philosophy","description":"The ancient Greeks were not only the founders of western philosophy, but the actual term \"philosophy\" is Greek in origin, most likely dating back to the late sixth century BC. Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras, Euclid, and Thales are but a few of the better-known philosophers of ancient Greece. During the amazingly fertile period running from roughly the middle of the first millennium BC to the middle of the first millennium AD, the world saw the rise of science, numerous schools of thought, and--many believe--the birth of modern civilization. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis second edition of Historical Dictionary of Ancient Greek Philosophy covers the history of Greek philosophy through a chronology, an introductory essay, a glossary, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 1500 cross-referenced entries on important philosophers, concepts, issues, and events. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Greek philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony Preus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1442246383\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442246386\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.14h x 7.19w x 1.73d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2015","brand":"Anthony Preus","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44066214969599,"sku":"9781442246386","price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b6379a37-413e-4757-86d9-a27e0e5ed674.jpg?v=1685405953","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/historical-dictionary-of-ancient-greek-anthony-preus-9781442246386","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
