Early Pythagorean Politics In Practice And Theory is a book written by Edwin Leroy Minar that delves into the political philosophy of the ancient Greek mathematician and philosopher, Pythagoras. The book explores the political ideas and practices of Pythagoras and his followers, known as the Pythagoreans, who were active in the 6th century BCE. Minar examines the relationship between the Pythagorean community and the political structures of the time, including the city-states of Magna Graecia. He also analyzes the Pythagorean beliefs and practices that influenced their political philosophy, such as the idea of harmony and balance in the universe, the concept of justice, and the importance of education and self-improvement. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the Pythagorean political system, including their methods of governance, their ideas about citizenship, and their approach to social and economic issues. It also explores the impact of Pythagorean political thought on later philosophers and political theorists, such as Plato and Aristotle. Overall, Early Pythagorean Politics In Practice And Theory offers a detailed and insightful exploration of the political philosophy of Pythagoras and the Pythagoreans, shedding light on an often-overlooked aspect of ancient Greek thought and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
