Description
Summary:"The three chapters of this work provide a philological analysis of the primary sources (Epicur. Ep. Hrdt. 56-59/Lucret. DRN I 599-634; II 481-499) concerning the theory of minima (Ch. 1); an analysis of the likely historical background to this theory (Xenocrates, Aristotle and Diodorus Cronus - Ch. 2); and a study of the development of this doctrine within the Garden, based on an examination of the question whether it is legitimate to speak of an 'Epicurean geometry' (Ch. 3). The research thus seeks to provide a broad, detailed and comprehensive overview of the Epicurean theory of minima."
