Einführung in die antike Philosophie

This introduction keeps a medium form between the detailled volumes and the small pocket-books, treating the main thinkers of ancient times, with reference to their original texts. The Author interprets their thoughts not as mere facts in historical sequence but expounds their main problems and solutions (about knowledge, nature, metaphysics, human being, ethics, arts), according to their inner organic development through the ages, arriving to certain truths, which Seidl confronts often with modern thinkers (like Descartes, Kant, Heidegger and Popper). The reader is motivated to participate at this vital development.
