  7. Jeffrey Fish - Not All Politicians Are Sisyphus - What Roman Epicureans Were Taught About Politics

    • Cassius

    Well researched presentation of the argument that Epicurean philosophy can embrace, in proper circumstances, prudent participation in political affairs. I think this document is likely to become one of our key references on "engagement with society."

    • Cassius
    • June 30, 2022 at 8:34 AM
    The standard interpretation of the concept of katastematic pleasure in Epicurus .... leads to fundamental contradictions in his theory. I claim that it is not Epicurus, but the standard interpretation that generates these errors...
