Enjoy a fascinating exploration of the Greek philosophical tradition from its inception in the Classical period until the final stages of its evolution.

Greek and Roman Philosophy covers:The first part of Late Antiquity
Pre-Socratics
Classical philosophers
Major schools of the Hellenistic period (the Stoics, Epicureans, Academics)
Rise of Roman philosophy
Developments and revivals in the post-Hellenistic period
Emergence of Christianity as a philosophy
While making Greek and Roman philosophy its central feature, the book's underlying interest is the relevance of these traditions to the early Christian movement, especially the New Testament.

For although Christianity is rooted in and ineradicably linked with Judaism, its shoots quickly extended outward into the Greco-Roman world where it was able to flower and propagate only by competing with the intellectual traditions of the Greek-speaking world, above all, the philosophical traditions. A knowledge of these traditions, therefore, is an essential complement to the study of Second Temple Judaism for serious students of the New Testament and early Christianity. It is the purpose of this book to offer such an introduction.
