Pierre Hadot
Pierre Hadot was a renowned French philosopher and historian of philosophy, best known for his work on ancient philosophy, particularly Stoicism and Neoplatonism. Born in 1922 and passing in 2010, Hadot emphasized the importance of philosophy as a way of life rather than merely a theoretical discipline. His influential writings, including 'Philosophy as a Way of Life,' explore how ancient philosophers, notably Socrates, approached the practice of philosophy as a means to cultivate the self and achieve personal transformation. Hadot's insights have significantly shaped contemporary understandings of ancient thought and its relevance to modern philosophical practice.
