Stoics And Sceptics is a book written by Edwyn Bevan that provides a comprehensive overview of the two philosophical schools, Stoicism and Skepticism. The book explores the origins and development of these two schools of thought, their key beliefs and principles, and their impact on Western philosophy. Bevan delves into the teachings of the Stoics, who believed in the importance of virtue, reason, and self-control in achieving a happy and fulfilling life. He also discusses the Skeptics, who were known for their skepticism towards knowledge and their emphasis on doubt and uncertainty. Throughout the book, Bevan explores the similarities and differences between these two schools of thought, and how they have influenced the development of philosophy and ethics in Western civilization. He also examines the legacy of Stoicism and Skepticism in modern philosophy and society. Overall, Stoics And Sceptics is a thought-provoking and insightful read for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, and the history of Western thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
