As a philosophy, however, it also denoted the striving after an independent state of mind and body, imperturbability, and reliance on sensory data as the true basis of knowledge.Epicurus (ca. 341-271 B.C.) founded one of the most famous and influential philosophical schools of antiquity. In these remains of his vast output of scientific and ethical writings, we can trace Epicurus' views on atomism, physical sensation, duty, morality, the soul, and the nature of the gods.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityAuthor: No AuthorRelease Year: 1993 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
