Une prouesse. C'est entier et vivant que Jean-François Pradeau ressuscite le grand philosophe présocratique dont il ne nous reste que des fragments. Une leçon de philosophie immémoriale et pourtant si actuelle. D'Héraclite, il ne nous reste que des fragments. Des passages, des citations, des éclats d'une pensée que l'on peine à restituer dans sa globalité. Toutefois, aujourd'hui, lorsque l'on évoque ce grand présocratique dont la renommée a traversé près de vingt-six siècles, c'est immanquablement au nom de Jean-François Pradeau qu'on l'associe. C'est à lui que l'on doit la remarquable édition scientifique d'une oeuvre parcellaire qui est devenue un succès populaire. Conflit cosmique, mobilité perpétuelle, unité des contraires : grâce à ce livre qui offre une introduction claire, pédagogique à la vie et aux écrits de ce précurseur, Héraclite apparaît enfin sans hermétisme. Et sa pensée, d'une profonde actualité.

A. A. Long presents fourteen essays on the themes of selfhood and rationality in ancient Greek philosophy. The discussion ranges over seven centuries of innovative thought, starting with Heraclitus' injunction to listen to the cosmic logos, and concluding with Plotinus' criticism of those who make embodiment essential to human identity. For the Greek philosophers the notion of a rational self was bound up with questions about divinity and happiness called eudaimonia, meaning a god-favoured life or a life of likeness to the divine. While these questions are remote from current thought, Long also situates the book's themes in modern discussions of the self and the self's normative relation to other people and the world at large. Ideas and behaviour attributed to Socrates and developed by Plato are at the book's centre. They are preceded by essays that explore general facets of the soul's rationality. Later chapters bring in salient contributions made by Aristotle and Stoic philosophers. All but one of these pieces has been previously published in periodicals or conference volumes, but the author has revised and updated everything. The book is written in a style that makes it accessible to many kinds of reader, not only professors and graduate students but also anyone interested in the history of our identity as rational animals.

"The First Council of Ephesus (431) was the climax of the so-called Nestorian Controversy. Convoked by the emperor Theodosius II to restore peace to the church, it immediately divided into two rival councils, both meeting at Ephesus. The emperor's representatives attempted to get the bishops on both sides to meet together had no success, and after four months the council was dissolved without having ever properly met. But a number of decrees by the larger of the two rival councils, in particular the condemnation of Nestorius of Constantinople, were subsequently accepted as the valid decrees of the 'ecumenical council of Ephesus'. The documentation, consisting of conciliar proceedings, letters and other documents, provides information not only about events in Ephesus itself, but also about lobbying and public demonstrations in Constantinople. There is no episode in late Roman history where we are so well informed about how politics were conducted in the imperial capital. This makes the Acts a document of first importance for the history of the Later Roman Empire as well for that of the church." --
