Publisher's Synopsis
""The Christian Element In Plato And The Platonic Philosophy"" by C. Ackermann is a scholarly work that explores the influence of Christianity on the philosophy of Plato and the Platonic tradition. The book delves into the historical and cultural context of Plato's time, examining the religious beliefs and practices that shaped his thinking. It also explores the ways in which Christian thinkers, from the early Church Fathers to the medieval scholastics, interpreted and adapted Plato's ideas to fit within their own theological frameworks. Throughout the book, Ackermann argues that the Christian element in Plato's philosophy is not just a matter of superficial similarities or borrowings, but rather a deep and pervasive influence that has shaped the very foundations of Western thought. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of philosophy, theology, and intellectual history, as well as to anyone interested in the intersection of Christianity and classical philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
