Descripción
Sumario:Plutarch''s De latenter vivendo is the only extant work from Antiquity in which Epicurus'' famous ideal of an ''unnoticed life'' (lathe biosas) is thematised as such. Moreover, the short rhetorical work provides a lot of interesting information about Plutarch''s polemical strategies and about his own philosophical convictions in the domains of ethics, politics, metaphysics, and eschatology. In this book, Plutarch''s anti-Epicurean polemic is understood against the background of the previous philosophical tradition. An examination of Epicurus'' own position is followed by a discussion of Plutarc.
