Zarathushtra and the Greeks (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162582894)

Zarathushtra and the Greeks is a scholarly work by Lawrence Heyworth Mills that explores the connections between the ancient Persian prophet Zarathushtra (Zoroaster) and Greek philosophy. The book examines the similarities and differences between the teachings of Zarathushtra and the Greek philosophers, including Pythagoras, Plato, and Aristotle. Mills argues that there was a significant influence of Zarathushtra's ideas on Greek thought, particularly in the areas of ethics, metaphysics, and theology. The book also delves into the historical context of the interactions between Persia and Greece, and the impact of these interactions on the development of Western philosophy. Overall, Zarathushtra and the Greeks is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the relationship between two important strands of ancient thought.1906.
