Albert Joosse, Angela Ulacco (eds) - Dealing with Disagreement. The Construction of Traditions in Later Ancient Philosophy

Title: Dealing with Disagreement. The Construction of Traditions in Later Ancient Philosophy
Description: Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 234 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, French, German. ISBN 9782503602844. ¶ Summary Ancient philosophy is known for its organisation into distinct schools. But those schools were not locked into static dogmatism. As recent scholarship has shown, lively debate persisted between and within traditions. Yet the interplay between tradition and disagreement remains underexplored. This volume asks, first, how philosophers talked about differences of opinion within and between traditions and, second, how such debates affected the traditions involved. It covers the period from the first century BCE, which witnessed a turn to authoritative texts in different philosophical movements, through the rise of Christianity, to the golden age of Neoplatonic commentaries in the fifth and sixth centuries CE. By studying various philosophical and Christian traditions alongside and in interaction with each other, this volume reveals common philosophical strategies of identification and differentiation. Ancient authors construct their own traditions in their (polemical) engagements with dissenters and opponents. Yet this very process of dissociation helped establish a common conceptual ground between traditions. This volume will be an important resource for specialists in late ancient philosophy, early Christianity, and the history of ideas. TABLE OF CONTENTS Albert Joosse and Angela Ulacco ?
