Becoming god was an ideal of many ancient Greek philosophers, as was the life of reason, which they often equated with divinity. This book presents their rival accounts of god, reason, and the best life, arguing that each depended on an attitude toward time. It is suitable for students from across the fields of Philosophy and Classical Studies.

Philosophy long sought to set knowledge on a firm foundation, through derivation of indubitable truths by infallible rules. This work argues for a reconception that takes reflective equilibrium as the standard of rational acceptability. It contends that metaphor, fiction, and exemplification often advance understanding in science and in art.

Challenges the theory that the self is narrative alone or that concordance reigns over discordance in the self. Drawing upon the works of Gilles Deleuze, this book proposes that deep to the sense of a unified, represented self is a more fundamental self of difference, a self that is more than merely coherent narrative.

The concept of innateness is central to Descartes' epistemology; the Meditations display a new, non-Aristotelian method of acquiring knowledge by attending properly to our innate ideas. This book argues that Descartes' remarks on innate ideas in fact form a unified account.
