| Summary: | Rethinking Early Greek Philosophy initiates a bold new approach to studying the presocratic philosophers, whose works survive only in fragments quoted by later writers. Catherine Osborne challenges traditional methods of assembling these fragments to form texts that are considered authoritative and are interpreted independently of the presumed bias of the writers who preserved them. |
