The agonal aretē according to the Vichian vision of history
Keywords:
Idealism, history, aristocracy, Olympic games, virtue.
Abstract
The aim of this study is to analyze succinctly the ages of nations in the philosophical standpoint of Giambattista Vico, with special reference to the heroic age. It will be interesting to apply these categories onto the athletic Greek experience with the objective of reclaiming the necessary knowledge of the agonal virtue. Such argument is still valuable nowadays because of the dangerous mistakes of strictly idealistic positions.Downloads
