Friedle, Simon. "Thomas Hobbes and the reception of early-modern Epicureanism." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2012. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/265540.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a study of Epicurean motifs (Epicurea) within the philosophical system of Thomas Hobbes in general; it examines all aspects of Hobbesian philosophy, viz. first philosophy, physics, anthropology, ethics, and politics within the context of the revival of early-modem Epicureanism and atomism in England as well as Europe. Thereby, it not only attempts to set Hobbes's understanding of Epicureanism in the general context of its reception in the seventeenth century but also to explore the specific Epicurean elements within Hobbes's philosophy. As a consequence, this thesis argues that

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the ancient reception of the Categories of Aristotle, a work which served continuously, from late antiquity into the early modern period (Frede 1987), as the student’s introduction to philosophy.  There had previously been no comprehensive study of the reception of the Categories during the age of the first philosophical commentaries (c. 80 BC to AD 220). In this study, I have collected, assigned, and analyzed the relevant fragments of commentary belonging to this period, including some that were previously undocumented or inexplicit in the source texts, and sought to es

Abstract:
The present thesis explores how the personality, image, and deeds of Alexander the Great have been interpreted, reshaped, and exploited by the Greeks from Antiquity to the Modern era. The main focus is the understanding of the metamorphosis of the historical persona of Alexander into a god-like mythological figure and a Hellenic national hero, researching the origins of the Alexander-myth and how it operates in response to different historico-political, social and cultural stimuli for the Greeks.

Abstract:
The central argument of this thesis is that Percy Bysshe Shelley perceived modern relevance in the experience of the ancient Greeks. While their art, architecture, literature, philosophy and mythology were a constant inspiration for his thought and writing, a knowledge of their moral values, religious beliefs, social customs, political institutions and historical events provided him with clues to ideal society. Three chief factors are identified that determined the ways in which Shelley formed an idea of Greek antiquity: rationalism, idealism and historicism. Rationalism was an intellectual le

Issues of language are of crucial importance to the doctrinal controversies of Classical Patristics. The Fathers, as well as their opponents, show a sustained philosophical interest in the nature of language, words, name, meaning, changes of meaning of expressions, correctness of name, the purity of language, etc. The main attempt of this dissertation is, therefore, to demonstrate that the Patristic view of language was not just an eclectic variant of standard philosophical overviews (Platonic, Stoic, Peripatetic, etc. ), but a thorough and well-conceived treatment of the matter, that should b

Through analysis of documents spanning several decades of debate, I will trace the evolution of this discussion to unlock the logic that led to philosophy put to action in the form of revolution. Finally, I will evaluate how this logic fits into the historic trajectory described by Marxism.

The goal of this thesis is to explore the possibility of applying Hans Robert Jauss' hermeneutic of reception theory to biblical interpretation. The traditional methods employed in biblical interpretation involve a two-way dialogue between the text and the reader. Reception theory expands this into a three-way dialogue, with the third partner being the history of the text's interpretation and application. This third partner has been ignored by biblical interpreters but recently the need to include this has gained some attention. In the first part of the thesis, the work of Hans-Georg Gadamer w

As I argue, these figures entered the poetic contest not only to defeat their poetic adversaries, but also to transform and redefine the terms of the competition itself. Chapter 1 is devoted to
