''Lives of the Ancient Philosophers'' is a book written by M. de la Motte Fenelon that explores the lives and teachings of some of the most influential philosophers of ancient times. The book features biographical sketches of famous thinkers such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and Epicurus, as well as lesser-known figures like Pythagoras and Diogenes. In addition to recounting the lives of these philosophers, Fenelon provides insights into their philosophical ideas and how they contributed to the development of Western thought. The book also examines the cultural and historical contexts in which these philosophers lived, offering a glimpse into the intellectual and social atmosphere of ancient Greece and Rome. As an added bonus, ''Lives of the Ancient Philosophers'' includes a biography of the author, M. de la Motte Fenelon, who was a French writer and philosopher in his own right. This makes the book not only a valuable resource for those interested in ancient philosophy, but also a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of an important intellectual figure from the Enlightenment era. Overall, ''Lives of the Ancient Philosophers'' is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy and the intellectual traditions of the ancient world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
