Greek and Roman Philosophy After Aristotle brings together over twenty-five of the most important works of Western philosophy written from 322 B.C.E. - the death of Aristotle - to the close of the third century C.E. Eminent philosopher Jason Saunders's choices for this concise volume emphasize the range and significance of the leading philosophers of the Hellenistic Age. Supplemented by Dr. Saunders's enlightening introduction, descriptive notes, and extensive bibliography, these readings provide an essential introduction for students and general readers alike to the enormous influence of Greek philosophy on the formative years of Christianity as well as the early Christians' distrust of it.
