Very imperfect phrase) of the blessed Trinity we I know little more than a distinction Of O ices and such, - or something approaching to such, - a dis tinction of Offices in the Supreme Essence is not, perhaps, wholly beyond the antecedent conjecture, however beyond the demonstrative certainty, Of contemplative reason.

Excerpt from A History of Ancient Philosophy, Vol. 2: Plato and Aristotle This second volume of my History of Ancient Philosophy contains the treatment of Plato and Aristotle, and hence the most remarkable heights achieved by Greek thought. We have been concerned with these two authors many times in wide-rang ing research, but on Plato only in the last few years have we arrived at a satisfactory summary overview, especially in our work Toward a New Interpreta tion of Plato. A Rereading of the Metaphysics of the Great Dialogues in the Light of the Unwritten Doctrines (a preliminary edition in 1984; a revision and amplification as well as a third and fourth edition in 1986; and in were published).

Excerpt from Greek Thinkers, Vol. 2: A History of Ancient Philosophy In the second edition, which has followed the first after so short an interval, no one will expect to find radical alterations. But in a considerable number of passages the author has endeavoured, not, as he hopes, altogether without success, to effect improvements in his exposition.

Reale's volume supplies a synthesis previously lacking—a synthesis in the historical treatment of the great philosophies of the Hellenistic Age: the Academy, the Peripatos, the Stoa, the Garden of Epicurus, Scepticism, and Eclecticism. Reale's extensive and fully documented treatment of the major schools of the period is unified by his thesis that the ethics developed by these major schools were secular faiths that sprang from intuitions about the meaning of life first emotionally grasped and then systematically and rationally developed. It is for this reason that the teachings of these schools endured almost continuously for about 500 years. It is for the same reason that the founders of the schools were considered gods and were actually, in a certain sense, the saints of secular faiths and religions. In this book, Reale traces the decline of the philosophical schools of the classical period, the post-Platonic Academy, the post-Aristotelian Peripatos, and the minor socratic schools. The destruction of the polis and the incapacity of the schools to address the concerns of the new age were the fertile grounds from which the new schools developed. The Garden of Epicurus, the Porch of Zeno, and the sceptical movement initiated by Pyrrho form the core of the volume. The volume contains a select bibliography and an index of names and Greek terms, as well as an index of citations.
