CLICK TO PURCHASE

This little booklet is a good overview of a few centuries of interesting Greek history, specifically looking at the change in its religious system as the region went from a relative backwater to a technologically advanced major trading center and military power. The rise of individualism, as a replacement for the old aristocratic system, and its considerable impact on spirituality- especially in regards to how the afterlife was conceived- is of great interest. This text is an oratory transcribed from one of the famous Ingersoll Lectures.

Early Greek Philosophy: Now Available!

 

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This work is a broad overview of a couple centuries of Greek philosophy from the era of Thales and similar figures, up through the age of Socrates. It importantly contains a section explaining the sophists, and the non-pejorative origin of that term, as well as some of the various theories and intellectual meanderings of the philosophers, like the concept of Atomism. Most Greek philosophy was at least overlapped somewhat with their religion and so the spiritual significance of the topic is key here.
