Language, Thought and Falsehood in Ancient Greek Philosophy: Volume 2 (Routledge Library Editions: Philosophy of Language)
Nicholas Denyer
ltho it doesn't generally preoccupy modern philosophers, the problem of falsehood loomed large early in the development of Greek philosophy & exercised many fine minds, not least that of Plato. "Language, Thought & Falsehood in Ancient Greek Philosophy" sets forth the assumptions about thought & language that made falsehood seem so problematic to Plato & his contemporaries. As both a classicist & a philosopher, the author is well placed to answer these questions, & his style remains free from untranslated Greek. As a well documented case study of a definitive advance in logic, metaphysics & epistemology, it will also appeal to philosophers generally.
