Abstract
This volume comprises twenty-six pieces, both in Spanish and in English, written by the Chilean-American scholar and philosopher Alfonso Gómez-Lobo (1940-2011). The papers contained in this book show some of his scholarly and philosophical interests, which spanned a wide range of topics, including Ancient philosophy, Ancient History, and Greek Literature and Art. The papers were originally published between 1977 and 2006. They cover all the chief topics that interested Gómez-Lobo the most and offer a fine panorama of his scholarly concerns and contributions to different fields in classical studies. Alfonso Gómez-Lobo was a full Professor of Philosophy at Georgetown University, where he held the Ryan Chair in Metaphysics and Moral Philosophy (USA). He was educated at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (Chile), at the University of Athens (Greece), and at three German Universities: Tübingen, Heidelberg, and München. At the latter institution he received his PhD in Philosophy, Classics and Ancient History. Throughout his career he got several awards, academic honors, and fellowships.
