Description
The Lectures on Greek Philosophy 1928 is an early collection of John Anderson's teachings, delivered in Sydney in 1927. In these lectures, Anderson closely followed John Burnet's work Early Greek Philosophy, covering the pre-Socratics and Socratic Dialogues before moving on to Aristotle. Anderson saw the study of Greek philosophy as a corrective to modern philosophical approaches, which he believed were flawed by an overemphasis on epistemology. Instead, he advocated for returning to the direct common sense realism of ancient Greek philosophers, who approached inquiry with a more straightforward approach. This collection provides valuable insights into Anderson's thought process and his approach to understanding Greek philosophy, offering a unique perspective on the subject.
