Van de uitgever
History has not been kind to the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus: few thinkers have been so misunderstood by posterity. For many centuries Epicureans are called gluttons, hedonists, lovers of living for pleasure - all because the philosopher considered the highest good in life pleasure. But what was pleasure really for Epicurus, who urged contentment and showed his disciples the way to spiritual serenity? The English philosopher John Sellars tells us truthfully and simply about tetrapharmacos, the Epicurean doctrine that healed anxiety and fear and was based on atomistic theory.
