"Philosophy in the Islamic world is the third of a series of books in which Peter Adamson aims ultimately to present a complete history of philosophy, more thoroughly but also more enjoyably than ever before. He offers an accessible, humorous, and detailed look at the emergence of philosophy with the Presocratics, the probing questions of Socrates, and the first full flowering of philosophy with the dialogues of Plato and the treatises of Aristotle. The story is told 'without any gaps', discussing not only such major figures but also less commonly discussed topics like the Hippocratic Corpus, the Platonic Academy, and the role of women in ancient philosophy. Within the thought of Plato and Aristotle, the reader will find in-depth introductions to major works, such as the Republic and the Nicomachean Ethics, which are treated in detail that is unusual in an introduction to ancient philosophy. Adamson looks at fascinating but less frequently read Platonic dialogues like the Charmides and Cratylus, and Aristotle's ideas in zoology and poetics. This full coverage allows him to tackle ancient discussions in all areas of philosophy, including epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophy of science, ethics and politics. Attention is also given to the historical and literary context of classical philosophy, with exploration of how early Greek cosmology responded to the poets Homer and Hesiod, how Socrates was presented by the comic playwright Aristophanes and the historian Xenophon, and how events in Greek history may have influenced Plato's thought."--Publisher's description.… (mais)

Sem resenhas
Most surveys of philosophy in the Islamic world share the same shortcomings. They focus primarily on a couple of traditions, restricted by creed ("Islamic philosophy"), language ("Arabic philosophy"), or geography ("philosophy of Middle East" or "Near East") at the expense of covering the contributions of scholars from other milieus. They assume too much knowledge and training on the part of the reader, and are written for a limited audience that hardly needs an introduction to the discipline. They can be too limited in their scope, preferring to highlight the early formative periods, but do not connect them to later movements and thus perpetuate the notion that a dynamic tradition of Islamic or Arabic philosophy effectively ends in the Middle Ages. Furthermore, many treatments are just plain dull, presenting philosophy like a medicine that is good for you, but not enjoyable. The current volume eschews these pitfalls to create something truly special.
