This book offers the first comprehensive analysis of the origin and development of the concept of physical continuity in ancient thought before Aristotle, combining a thorough study of Presocratic philosophy with Aristotle’s perspective.
The concept of continuity plays a fundamental role in Aristotle''s philosophy, particularly in his physics; however, nowhere in his corpus does he present his theory of continuity. In this book, readers gain a solid foundation for understanding Aristotle’s theory of the continuum through an in-depth exploration of Presocratic views on being and continuity. The book’s innovative approach critically analyzes Aristotle’s engagement with his predecessors, including the work of Anaximander, the Pythagoreans, Eleatic philosophy, and the Atomists. By addressing this gap in existing literature, this volume not only enriches the discourse on Presocratic thought, but also establishes a clearer understanding of Aristotle’s contributions to the concept of continuity.
This book is suitable for students and scholars of ancient philosophy and the philosophy of science, particularly those working on Presocratic philosophy and Aristotle’s thought more broadly.

Das westliche philosophische Denken hat sich im Laufe seiner Geschichte unter anderem der wissenschaftlichen Forschung gewidmet. An dieser Front zielt die historisch-philosophische Forschung, unterstützt durch die Philologie, darauf ab, das Konzept der Philosophie als Wissenschaft in der Antike und im Mittelalter zu erhellen. In diesem Sinne trägt die Geschichte der Philosophie in Antike und Mittelalter wesentlich dazu bei, die Bewegung der Ideen, die Methoden und den Gegenstand der rationalen Erkenntnis zu definieren. Der vorliegende Band will einen Beitrag zu diesem Teil der Geschichte des abendländischen Denkens leisten, der zum modernen Europa geführt hat, das sich durch sein Wissen und seine Werte auszeichnet.Mit Beiträgen vonFrancesco Ademollo | Armando Bisogno | Giovanna R.
