  • "Christopher Gill offers a wide-ranging account of what is new and distinctive in Hellenistic and Roman ideas about selfhood and personality. He focuses upon Stoic and Epicurean philosophy and its relationship to earlier Greek thought, especially Plato, and contemporary literature."
  • ""Christopher Gill explores the complex relationship between Stoic and Epicurean thinking and earlier Greek thought about personality, including the selective adoption and rejection of fourth-century ideas. His general analysis of Hellenistic thinking about personality is illustrated by a detailed study of the Stoic theory of the passions and a new account of its relationship to Platonic thought."--Jacket."
