'Seven Sages and Delphic Maxims - Ἑπτὰ Σοφοὶ καὶ Δελφικὰ Παραγγέλματα' Summary
Οἱ Ἑπτὰ Σοφοὶ τῆς Ἐλλάδος ἦσαν φιλόσοφοι, πολιτικοὶ καὶ νομοθέτες, οἱ ὁποῖοι ἔζησαν στὶς ἀρχὲς τοῦ ἕκτου αἰώνα π. Κ. Χ. καὶ ἦταν ξακουστοὶ γιὰ τὴν σοφία τους. Tὰ Δελφικὰ Παραγγέλματα εἶναι μία συλλογὴ 147 ἀποφθεγμάτων, ποὺ ἦταν χαραγμένα στὸ Μαντεῖο τῶν Δελφῶν. Λέγεται ὅτι εἶχαν δοθεῖ στὸ Μαντεῖο ἀπὸ τὸν θεὸ Ἀπόλλωνα. Οἱ Ἑπτὰ Σοφοὶ καὶ τὰ Δελφικὰ Παραγγέλματα ἔχουν διασωθεῖ στὸ «Ἀνθολόγιον» τοῦ Ἰωάννη Στοβαίου, ὁ ὁποῖος ἀποδίδει τὰ Δελφικὰ Παραγγέλματα στοὺς Ἑπτὰ Σοφούς. Οἱ περισσότεροι μελετητὲς σήμερα θεωροῦν ὅτι ὁ πραγματικὸς συγγραφέας τῶν Δελφικῶν Παραγγελμάτων εἶναι δύσκολο νὰ προσδιοριστεῖ.Book Details
