What Is Ancient Philosophy?
Pierre Hadot
Translated by Michael Chase Read an excerpt in PDF format A magisterial mappa mundi of the terrain that Pierre Hadot has so productively worked for decades, this ambitious work revises our view of ancient philosophyand in doing so, proposes that we change the way we see philosophy itself. Hadot takes ancient philosophy out of its customary realm of names, dates, and arid abstractions and plants it squarely in the thick of life. Through a meticulous historical reading, he shows how the various schools, trends, and ideas of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy all tended toward one goal: to provide a means for achieving happiness in this life, by transforming the individual's mode of perceiving and being in the world. Most pressing for Hadot is the question of how the ancients conceived of philosophy. He argues in great detail, systematically covering the ideas of the earliest Greek thinkers, Hellenistic philosophy, and late antiquity, that ancient philosophers were concerned not just to develop philosophical theories, but to practice philosophy as a way of life-a way of life to be suggested, illuminated, and justified by their philosophical "discourse." For the ancients, philosophical theory and the philosophical way of life were inseparably linked. What Is Ancient Philosophy?

Graduate Study in Ancient Philosophy
This program is offered jointly by the Departments of Classics and Philosophy. It is administered by an interdepartmental committee whose members are: Alan Code, Depts. of Classics and Philosophy
John Ferrari, Dept. of Classics
Anthony Long, Dept. of Classics The program is designed to produce scholars with a broad range of expertise both in philosophy and classics, with the intention of bridging the gap between the two subjects. It provides the training and specialist knowledge required for undertaking research in ancient philosophy, and at the same time equips students for scholarly work and teaching in either classics or philosophy. Those who complete the program will be qualified to work as a full member of one of these disciplines, while having developed a broad competence in the other. Students apply for admission to either of the participating departments in accordance with their qualifications and interests. They are treated accordingly as graduate students fully in either the Departnent of Classics or the Department of Philosophy. The program offers graduate students of Classics the opportunity of taking classes in philosophy as an integral part of their work. It offers graduate students of philosophy the opportunity to develop their knowledge of both classical languages, and to make a thorough study of Graeco-Roman culture. Students from the two departments will meet each other regularly both in seminars on ancient philosophical texts and in reading groups and colloquia. Seminar offerings from the two departments are designed to give students, during their years in the program, the opportunity to study a wide variety of topics, including the Presocratics, Plato, Aristotle, Hellenistic philosophy and the philosophy of later antiquity.

Course Description This course satisfies the "Philosophy and Religion" (C-3) section of the General Education Program. Courses in this section are designed to promote critical reflection on questions concerning the nature, meaning, and value of human existence, the world in which we live, and our relations with one another. Students should understand the sources and limits of knowledge, and they should appreciate and be able to assess different world views and moral teachings that have played central roles in human culture. More specifically, this course is designed as a critical evaluation of classical philosophy with a focus on the metaphysic and epistemology of the Pre-Socratics, Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. We will also examine the historical situation of the rise of philosophy in ancient Greece, the role of the sophists, democracy in 5

Thus, for example, Thales is reported as claiming that water is the basic element, Pythagoras (sixth century BC) as according this status to number and Heraclitus (fl c 500 BC) to fire. An important polarity in presocratic cosmology is that between Heraclitus (from Ionia in Asia Minor), who held that everything is continuously changing and Parmenides (early fifth century; from the Greek outpost of Elea in southern Italy), who held that everything is really a single, changeless, static thing. It has plausibly been suggested that some of the impetus for Plato’s worldview was provided by the apparently quixotic ambition to consolidate the insights of both thinkers. (The influence of Pythagoras on Plato is also palpably strong.)

Greek Philosophy Table of Contents (Clicking on the links below will take you to that part of this article)
Presocratics Our western philosophical tradition began in ancient Greece in the 6th century BCE. The first philosophers are called "Presocratics" which designates that they came before Socrates. The Presocratics were from either the eastern or western regions of the Greek world. Athens home of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle is in the central Greek region and was late in joining the philosophical game. The Presocratic's most distinguishing feature is emphasis on questions of physics; indeed, Aristotle refers to them as "Investigators of Nature". Their scientific interests included mathematics, astronomy, and biology. As the first philosophers, though, they emphasized the rational unity of things, and rejected mythological explanations of the world. Only fragments of the original writings of the presocratics survive, in some cases merely a single sentence. The knowledge we have of them derives from accounts of early philosophers, such as Aristotle's Physics and Metaphysics The Opinions of the Physicists by Aristotle's pupil Theophratus, and Simplicius, a Neoplatonist who compiled existing quotes.

98. Hermetic Philosophy: The Ancient And Eternal Wisdom
Gives the seven Hermetic principles and offers some information on the philosophy.
http://www.lightparty.com/Spirituality/Hermetic.html
Hermetic Philosophy The Ancient and Eternal Wisdom The Bible and the Quabalah is solidly rooted in Hermetic Science. Hermetic is derived from the name Hermes (Greek) Throth (Egyptian) and Mercury (Roman). Hermes Trismegustus make his first appearance on Earth in Ancient Egypt. Previous to this cycle he was known as Thoth- the Athenian. To students of the occult his most known work is the emerald tablets. Hermes was the teacher of Abraham and was and still is the God of Wisdom. Among the arts and sciences which it is affirmed Hermes revealed to mankind were medicine, chemistry, law, art, astrology, music (Hermes created the lyre), rhetoric, magic, philosophy, geography, mathematics (especially geometry), anatomy and oratory. In his Biographia Antigua, Francis Barrett says of Hermes..."if God ever appeared in Man, he appeared in him, as is evident both from his books and his Pymander, in which works he has communicated the sum of the Abyss, and the divine knowledge to all posterity, by which he has demonstrated to himself to have been not only an inspired divine, but also a deep philosopher, obtaining wisdom from God and heavenly things, and not from Man." All the fundamental and basic teachings of every race may be traced back to Hermes. Even the most ancient teachings of India have their roots in the original teachings. Interestingly enough, it was at the time of Hermes, in Ancient Egypt that the Great Pyramid of Giza was built. It was in Ancient Egypt that Jesus was initiated into the occult laws and principles. Jesus was a hermetic scientist initiated into Qablah (Hermetic philosophy) in Jerusalem at he age of thirteen.
