Book Overview

The Pythagoreans is a book written by John Burnet that explores the philosophy and teachings of the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras and his followers, known as the Pythagoreans. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the Pythagorean school of thought, including their beliefs about the nature of reality, the role of mathematics and music in the universe, and the importance of ethical living. Burnet draws on a wide range of primary sources and secondary scholarship to present a comprehensive overview of Pythagoreanism, from its origins in the sixth century BCE to its influence on later philosophical and scientific traditions. The Pythagoreans is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy, mathematics, and science, as well as the cultural and intellectual legacy of ancient Greece.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Early Greek Philosophy, by John Burnet.
