Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Ancient and Medieval Philosophy Perhaps no period in civilization has ever been so rich in specula tive, boldness and penetrating cosmic insight __as the great per_iod of Greek philosophy. It appears that the Greeks were naturally curious and inquisitive about the nature of life and the structure of the uni verse; consequently philosophers like Democritus, Aristotle, and Plato observed all aspects of existence and were occupied with problems which not merely dealt with ethical ideals but also gave a synthesis of human knowledge.
