Funded Activity Summary

Aetiana: laying foundations for the study of the history of ancient philosophy. Ancient philosophy is one of the pillars of the tradition of western thought. It has made a magnificent contribution to reflection on lasting problems in the areas of ethics, theory of knowledge, metaphysics and logic. The Socratic tradition of discussion on how we should live is the most striking example of how ancient philosophy remains directly relevant to issues in our society today. Research that strengthens our knowledge in this area will thus be of considerable benefit to the community.
