Publisher's Synopsis
Much has been said of the philosophy of antiquity. However, there is nothing to indicate to us that, like all forms of thought, it is not of a more or less acquired character and, therefore, with a history that it is possible to investigate and study. That is the main objective of this book of little more than a hundred pages containing, but in a summarized way, my impressions on the philosophy, morals and ancient religions, fundamentally those belonging to the Mediterranean civilizations. With this book I intend, in short, to bring to the public some of the great philosophical teachings, not forgetting the merely historical lessons that these people bequeathed to us. This book also belongs to a collection of three, dedicated to the study of ancient civilizations encompassed within this geographical sphere.
