Our Institute proudly presents the Forum of Hellenistic and Roman Philosophy, a new scholarly platform generated by an international cooperation between our Institute and the University of Crete. The Forum of Hellenistic and Roman Philosophy is a venue dedicated to the study of Hellenistic and Roman Philosophy (defined chronologically roughly from 300 BCE to 200 AD). The aim of this forum is to bring together experienced and younger scholars working on Hellenistic and Roman Philosophy from all around the world in order to present new research in this area, exchange views and test new approaches in reading philosophical texts from this period. The Forum is jointly managed by Attila Németh (Institute of Philosophy, RCH, Budapest) and Georgia Tsouni (Department of Classics, University of Crete).
The volume, edited by Béla Mester and Rafał Smoczyński, entitled Lords and Boors – Westernisers and ‘Narodniks’: Chapters from Polish and Hungarian Intellectual History offers an overview of the results of the ten years of a Polish–Hungarian scholar cooperation.
Foreword and the Table of Contents of the book are available here and here; the whole volume will be available soon at the Gondolat Publishers.
