Libra Esoterica

La visione religiosa di Epicuro

by Franco De Capitani

  • First published:
  • 21st century
  • Language: Italian

By taking into account Epicurus’s extant texts and the most recent bibliography, this article aims at showing that he was not a convinced and stubborn atheist, as it was often believed during the Middle Ages. Rather, his idea of religion was vivid, positive and respectful of the traditional deities: to such an extent that Epicurus can be characterized as an ascetic and even mystical figure.
