Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy

Abstract

Volume LXV contains an essay examining the argumentative coherence of the “first wave” in Palto’s Republic; an argument for an Explanationist interpretation of Aristotle’s views on Science; an argument for a reciprocal relationship between ethics and theology; an argument that Aristotle consistently frames maternal love as being by nature and not choice and that mothers are morally complex creatures; an argument that Socrates understands learning as the act of putting in memory, which is enabled by the soul’s powers of memory and recollection; and a look at the evolution of eirōneia in Ancient Greek and its application to Plato’s Socrates.
