Philosophy, Theory or Way of Life? Controversies in Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the RenaissanceLa philosophie, théorie ou manière de vivre? Les controverses de l’Antiquité à la Renaissance, avec une Préface de P. Hadot: With a Foreword by Pierre Hadot
Abstract
The ancient Western conception of philosophy as a way of life was eclipsed as philosophy became an academic discipline, a development that peaked under the influence of 13th-century scholasticism. Domański both traces this development and explores how some resisted it.
