The Sophists (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers a new way of looking at the 5th century BCE Sophists, rejecting the bad reputation they have had since antiquity and presenting them as individuals rather than a "movement", each with his own speciality and personality as revealed through the scant surviving evidence.
