Thinking, Knowing, Acting: Epistemology and Ethics in Plato and Ancient Platonism aims to offer a fresh perspective on the correlation between epistemology and ethics in Plato and the Platonic tradition from Aristotle to Plotinus, by investigating the social, juridical and theoretical premises of their philosophy.

The volume Thinking, Knowing, Acting: Epistemology and Ethics in Plato and Ancient Platonism aims to offer a fresh perspective on the correlation between epistemology and ethics, a topic of central importance in the Platonic tradition which has not yet received the attention it deserves. The first part deals with the social, juridical premises of Plato’s philosophy, with particular regard to the relation between science and practical reason. The second part investigates the reception and development of these problems in Aristotle and the Platonic tradition. Other papers, on Solon and Galen, show that the conflict between knowledge and political action was also a central topic for the other Greek thinkers and contribute by contrast to a better evaluation of the originality of Platonism.

Mauro Bonazzi, Ph.D. (2002) is professor of History of Ancient Philosophy at Utrecht University and Milan University. He has widely published on Plato and Platonism, including ‘Å la recherche des Idées. Platonisme et philosophie hellénistique d’Antiocus à Plotin’ (Vrin, 2015) Angela Ulacco, Ph.D. (Pisa, 2010), is assistant professor for Greek Philosophy at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg. She published studies on Plato’s Timaeus and its reception and on the Pseudo-Pythagorean texts, including ‘Pseudopythagorica dorica. I trattati di argomento metafisico, logico ed epistemologico attribuiti ad Archita e a Brotino. Introduzione, traduzione, commento’. Philosophie der Antike Bd. 41 (De Gruyter, 2017). Filippo Forcignanò, Ph.D. (Torino, 2012) is researcher in History of Ancient Philosophy at the University of Milan. He published studies on Pre-Socratic philosophy, Plato (in particular metaphysics and epistemology) and on the debate on the Theory of Forms in the Old Academy, including Forme, linguaggio, sostanze. Il dibattito sulle idee nell’Academia Antica (Mimesis, 2017).
