{"product_id":"plutarchs-cosmological-ethics","title":"Plutarch's Cosmological Ethics","description":"A groundbreaking and wide-ranging presentation of Plutarch's ethics based on the cosmological foundation of his ethical thought\n\nPlutarch of Chaeronea (c. 45-120 CE) is the most prolific and influential moral philosopher in the Platonic tradition. This book is a fundamental reappraisal of Plutarch's ethical thought. It shows how Plutarch based his ethics on his particular interpretation of Plato's cosmology: our quest for the good life should start by considering the good cosmos in which we live. The practical consequences of this cosmological foundation permeate various domains of Greco-Roman life: the musician, the organiser of a drinking party, and the politician should all be guided by cosmology. After exploring these domains, this book offers in-depth interpretations of two works which can only be fully understood by paying attention to cosmological aspects: Dialogue on Love and On Tranquillity of Mind.\n\nFree ebook available at OAPEN Library, JSTOR, Project Muse, and Open Research Library","brand":"Leuven University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54233013027160,"sku":"9789462703292","price":70.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9789462703292.jpg?v=1771654532","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/plutarchs-cosmological-ethics","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
