Philosophy, Theory or Way of Life? Controversies in Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance: With a Foreword by Pierre Hadot: Philosophy as a Way of Life, cartea 6

Philosophy in antiquity was conceived not as mere theory but as a way of life; but it lost its 'practicist' cast through a process that begins in the patristic era and peaks with its conversion into an academic discipline in the medieval universities under the influence of 13th-century scholasticism. Juliusz Domański sets out the reasons behind that process and shows how traces of the 'practicist' orientation survived, ultimately leading to a recovery of the ancient notion among the humanists of the Renaissance. A foreword by Pierre Hadot relates Domański’s research to his own vision of the history of philosophy.
