No.831
I'm currently reading Eduard Zeller's Outlines of the History of Greek Philosophy, and I'm wondering if it is generally still considered accurate. I'm up to Aristotle now and so far most things seem to make sense from the little I knew about pre-Socratic and Socratic philosophy, but there are some interesting claims (e.g. that the original Greek worldview was that the body was the real, and the soul a sort of secondary hazy thing, and that the Orphic religion changed this entirely). He doesn't provide source for that one.
Does anyone know of any more modern treatments of ancient Greek philosophy that I could read to get another perspective on the development of pre-Socratic thought?
