This 2002 book explores the neglected question of the ancestry of the Epicurean philosophical system by tracing its origins in the fifth and fourth centuries BC. An important contribution is thereby made to the philosophical interpretation of Epicureanism, especially on its ideal of tranquillity and the relation of ethics to physics.
