Abstract

Jacques Brunschwig’s collection of papers, Études sur les philosophies Hellénistiques: Epicurisme, stoïcisme, Scepticisme follows close on the heels of his similar, though not identical, Papers in Hellenistic Philosophy. It performs the same valuable service for Francophone readers that was performed for Anglophone readers by the English volume: it makes available for the first time in French articles that originally appeared in English along with a selection of pieces first published in French. The only serious complaint I can imagine against either volume concerns the decision to exclude certain pieces from each. Yet one should not be greedy; this is a splendid collection which gives ample cause for gratitude as it is.
