{"product_id":"9781108084024","title":"Die Fragmente der Vorsokratiker : Griechisch und Deutsch (Cambridge Library Collection - Classics)","description":"\u003cp\u003eHermann Diels (1848-1922), professor of classics at Berlin, is chiefly remembered for this collection of quotations from, and reports about, Presocratic philosophers; his system of numbering was later adopted as the scholarly standard. This reissue reproduces the original, single-volume edition of 1903, though the book was revised and expanded three times during Diels' lifetime, and again after his death, and new fragments continue to be discovered. Designed as a reference tool to underpin university classes on the beginnings of Greek philosophy, the book sought to enable students to engage with original evidence. Diels aimed to provide a complete corpus of fragments rather than an arbitrary selection. He intentionally reproduced the texts exactly rather than standardising the language, in order to provide a foundation for future research. While admitting he found the material obscure at times, Diels provided German translations to help make the content more accessible to his readers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49788505358584,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":131.21,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/8208\/6904\/files\/9781108084024-1.jpg?v=1783642532","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.au\/products\/9781108084024","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
