Western Hemisphere Zoom.  This Sunday, May 25, at 12:30 PM EDT, we will have another zoom meeting at a time more convenient for our non-USA participants.   This week we will combine general discussion with review of the question "What Would Epicurus Say About the Search For 'Meaning' In Life?" For more details check here.

    Quote from Joshua

    David Sedley's Lucretius and the Transformation of Greek Wisdom uses the eponymous Roman poet's work, largely intact, to reconstruct the lost writings of Epicurus (most importantly for Lucretius, Epicurus' thirty seven scrolls On Nature). But that's Cambridge University Press.

    Thank you, Joshua, maybe. Sedley does reconstruct Epicurus' work. My memory may well deceive me, I have in mind a more detailed book, but Sedley's book is enough for me (for the moment)

    Quote from Bryan

    Hello! Welcome.

    It is possible that you are thinking about this work: https://archive.org/details/Epicur…age/11/mode/2up

    No, it was a more recent book. Anyway thanks for reminding me of this edition. The book I have in mind reconstructed Epicurus' lost work (it's a voluminous book).

    Dear Friends of Epicurus, as a newcomer let me ask for your help. Recently, I've ve stumbled upon a book the author of which reconstructs Epicurus' work. (It was published perhaps by the Oxford University Press). However, I've mysteriously lost the track of the book. So, if somebody is familiar with this book, please remind me of its bibliographical data. Thanks in advance.
