Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolving perception of the philosopher Socrates throughout antiquity, particularly within early Christian communities. The author traces how Christian views of Socrates shifted over time, influenced by nuanced readings of pagan philosophical and literary sources. The author argues that Christians appropriated Socrates as a figure who exemplified their own values of ethical conduct and intellectual inquiry. However, this appropriation was not straightforward, as Christians also grappled with the tension between Socrates' pagan beliefs and their own monotheistic faith. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the dynamic relationship between Christianity and Greco-Roman thought, revealing the complex ways in which early Christians negotiated their own beliefs and practices in dialogue with the intellectual legacy of the ancient world.
