The Pythagorean Background Of The Theory Of Recollection is a scholarly book written by Alister Cameron. The book explores the relationship between Pythagorean philosophy and Plato's theory of recollection. The author argues that Plato was heavily influenced by Pythagorean ideas, particularly the concept of the soul's pre-existence and the idea that knowledge is innate. The book delves into Pythagorean mathematics, music theory, and cosmology to demonstrate how these concepts informed Plato's understanding of knowledge and memory. Cameron also examines how Plato used the theory of recollection to argue for the existence of an eternal, unchanging realm of Forms. The book is aimed at scholars of ancient philosophy and anyone interested in the history of ideas. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the Pythagorean influence on Plato's philosophy and sheds light on the development of ancient Greek thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
