Abstract

Within Lucian's works, Timon is referable to the writer's maturity and it is considered to be one of the best and most typical dialogues written by the author from Samosata. This study traces the story of the fascinating and enigmatical character of the Athenian Timon, a archetype of a misanthrop, in his literary development up to his crucial meeting with Lucian of Samosata. The work offers, for the first time, an analytical commentary on Lucian's Timon. The reader will find in the book an introduction, which is divided in four different sections: the first contains some general notes on the Second Sophistic and Lucian; the second restores the literary development of the misanthrope Timon from his origins in the Attic comedy to the II century a.D.; the third part offers an analysis of the relationship between Lucian's Timon and the literary tradition, and, afterwards, an investigation into the dialogue's fortune from the II century to the XX century; the last section gives short but exhaustive details about the literary style and the language used in the work. To facilitate the consultation, the analytical commentary is again divided into sections - each one with a short individual introduction - and follows the Greek text and the translation.

Abstract

The issue of Plutarch''s Platonism is a crucial topic for both specialists in Plutarch and for those interested in Plato.While previous publications on this issue focus on the faithfulness of Plutarch to Platonic philosophy and how Platonic theses are presented in the Middle Platonism, this volume attempts, through a multifaceted approach, to focus on how and why Plutarch uses the words of Plato in the Moralia.

Abstract

Wie die meisten unechten platonischen Schriften ist der Alkibiades II unzureichend erforscht. Die vorliegenden Untersuchungen zum pseudoplatonischen Alkibiades II enthalten umfangreiche Quellenforschungen, durch die die philosophischen Vorstellungen, die dem Werk zugrunde liegen, als die des Antisthenes erwiesen werden. Dabei werden neben den Memorabilien weitere philosophische Schriften des Xenophon und andere pseudoplatonische Dialoge in den Blick genommen, die in einzelnen Abschnitten dieselben Quellen wie der Alkibiades II zu verwenden scheinen. Im Alkibiades II werden einerseits Schriften des 4. Jh. v. Chr. (Platon, Antisthenes) als Quellen verwandt, andererseits wird gegen die Stoa des Zenon von Kition und den Peripatos der damaligen Zeit als zeitgenössische philosophische Konkurrenten polemisiert. Der pseudoplatonische Dialog ordnet sich auf Grund seiner Polemik und seines spezifischen Umgangs mit der philosophischen Protreptik in die Akademie z.Zt. des Polemon ein. Anhand seiner Struktur wird das Werk als ein sokratischer Alkibiades-Dialog verstanden. So ist sein Titel "Alkibiades" erklärbar.
