Produktinformationen zu „Plato and Platonism (World Digital Library Edition) (PDF)“
Plato’s ideas have had an enduring and important impact on philosophy, science, and all people, from the ancient kings to modern day man and to all people in between. He passionately touches on the topics of love, virtue, politics, the soul, and ethics in his dialogues. Plato and Platonism demystifies the complex roots of Hellenic philosophy by explaining the impact Plato had on the world when he opened the Academy, a university that nurtured mathematicians, scientists, and great thinkers like Aristotle.Plato was born in Athens around the year 428 BC, the son of wealthy and influential parents. When Socrates, whose ideas heavily influenced Plato, was condemned to death, Plato left Athens and traveled widely, especially to Italy and Sicily. He studied with students of Pythagoras and spent some years advising the ruling family of Syracuse. Around 387, he returned to Athens, where he founded his Academy and taught mathematics and philosophy. He remained at the Academy until his death in 347.
Autoren-Porträt von Walter Pater
Born in 1839 in Shadwell, East London, Walter Horatio Pater was the second of four children. His father Richard Glode Pater was a physician, and after his death in 1842, the family moved to Chase Side, Enfield. Walter went to grammar school there, until he was enrolled at King’s School, Canterbury in 1853. In 1858, he entered Queens College Oxford, where he read Classics and was deeply influenced by the ideas of John Ruskin (1819-1900). At Oxford, he was Oscar Wilde’s tutor. In 1864, he was elected as a Fellow of Brasenose College, Oxford, which would remain his spiritual home for the rest of his life. He died in Oxford in 1894.
