The Encyclopedia of Ancient Natural Scientists: The Greek tradition and its many heirs

Topics


We offer here an index of the entries by “topic” using modern categories, which do not
always map neatly onto ancient categories, but which are good (and even necessary) for
us to think with. The categories are similar to those of the chapters of our earlier book,
Irby-Massie and Keyser (2002). Of course, many authors, especially those known as
philosophers, will appear in multiple categories.
