All the essays in the volume contribute to a shared project-the exploration of ancient concepts of selfhood and the soul, understood in a broad sense-and, like the work of the honorand himself, these essays range widely across disciplinary boundaries between ancient philosophy, psychology, medical writing, and literary criticism. The thirteen contributions, which can be read separately or together, are marked by a diversity of approach and subject matter, as well as a commitment to examining central issues about the self, the experience of being a person, and the question of how best to live. The reader is taken on a journey through topics and themes including money, love, hope, pleasure, rage, free will, metempsychosis, Roman imperialism, cookery, and the underworld. In this way the volume aspires to its honorand's remarkable combination of range with focus. The international line-up of contributors includes many established figures in the fields of classical literature, philosophy, and ancient medicine, as well as several younger scholars. aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights aEnglish 7aEthics & moral philosophy2bicssc aancient philosophy, classical literature, selfhood, soul, ethics1 aSeaford, Richard4oth1 aWilkins, John4edt1 aWilkins, John4oth1 aWright, Matthew4edt1 aWright, Matthew4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/7067170zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication c92474d92474
