Inhoud:

Traces the origins of philosophy from its earliest roots in Babylonian and Homeric-Hesiodic mythology to its flowering in the Pre-Socratic imagination. Using selections from the """"Epic of Gilgamesh"""", Hesiod, Homer, Pythagoras, Zeno, Plato, and Socrates, the author argues against what he calls the 'historical approach' to the origin of philosophy.
