The Pythagorean Background of the Theory of Recollection is a scholarly work by Alister Cameron that explores the connection between Pythagorean philosophy and Plato's theory of recollection. The book delves into the Pythagorean concept of anamnesis, or the idea that knowledge is innate and can be recollected through contemplation and study. Cameron argues that Plato's theory of recollection, which posits that knowledge is not learned but remembered from a previous existence, is heavily influenced by Pythagorean thought. The book provides a thorough analysis of Pythagorean philosophy and its impact on Plato's work, making it a valuable resource for scholars of ancient philosophy and anyone interested in the history of ideas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
