This is a comprehensive, authoritative and innovative account of
Pythagoras and Pythagoreanism, one of the most enigmatic and influential
philosophies in the West. In twenty-one chapters covering a
timespan from the sixth century bc to the seventeenth century ad,
leading scholars construct a number of different images of Pythagoras
and his community, assessing current scholarship and offering
new answers to central problems. Chapters are devoted to the early
Pythagoreans, and the full breadth of Pythagorean thought is explored
including politics, religion, music theory, science, mathematics and
magic. Separate chapters consider Pythagoreanism in Plato, Aristotle,
the Peripatetics and the later Academic tradition, while others
describe Pythagoreanism in the historical tradition, in Rome and in
the pseudo-Pythagorean writings. The three great lives of Pythagoras
by Diogenes Laertius, Porphyry and Iamblichus are also discussed in
detail, as is the significance of Pythagoras for the Middle Ages and
Renaissance.
