Pursuits of Wisdom: Six Ways of Life in Ancient Philosophy from Socrates to Plotinus
John M. Cooper
Offers reinterpretation of ancient philosophy that recovers the long Greek and Roman tradition of philosophy as a complete way of life - and not simply an intellectual discipline. This book traces how, for many ancient thinkers, philosophy was not just to be studied or even used to solve particular practical problems.
