This thesis considers any existing representations of tragic themes in Plutarch's Lives of Demetrius and Antony. There is a modern debate regarding the nature of the tragic, which is initially adressed. The proposed themes are treated from the perspective of Plutarch's literary and moral intentions, namely the presentation of negative examples.
This article is a response to Steven Enderlein on the translation of Rom 3:23 and its implications for the πίστις Χριστοῦ debate. While affirming Enderlein's suggestion that the verb ὑστερέω is better understood as “lack” rather than “fall short,” we argue against his conclusions (1) that this translation leads to a subjective genitive reading of πίστις Χριστοῦ in Rom 3:22, 26; and (2) that the ve
In this article I first follow Aristotle's and Plato's critique of materialism in an ancient context, then, in order to bring the topic into a more modern discussion, I follow Marx' dissertation on Democritos and Epicurus in its attempts to counter this critique from a materialist standpoint. Finally I conclude in reaffirming and nuancing Aristotle's critique, showing the limits of using matter as

The paper concerns itself with the expressions of ideology in the late 10th century text known as Patria Konstantinoupoleos, the Patria of Constantinople. More specifically, it aims to examine the ideological tendencies and patterns which can be identified regarding the Byzantine emperors, individually and collectively. It takes a critical stance towards parts of the research that has previously b
To reach internationally agreed climate targets, it is especially important to phase out coal-powered electricity generation in favour of low-carbon technologies. Several governments have pledged to phase out coal power. However, coal phase-out is hindered by resistance of negatively affected workers, companies and regional governments. To reduce such resistance and to increase fairness within the
Background: Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonism are characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. As the disease advances, planning for end-of-life (EoL) care becomes increasingly important. However, consensus-based European guidelines for advance care planning and documentation of EoL care preferences for parkinsonism are lacking. Understanding current documentation practices for EoL c
In this article I argue why everyone (interested in ancient philosophy) should read the works of Sextus Empiricus. Through examples from Sextus Empiricus' Outlines of Pyrrhonism I try to show that the works of Sextus are both humoristic, interesting and philosophically relevant showcasing a perspectivism which is philosophically provoking in its own right and also affords us unique insights into d
