Book Synopsis Against the Grammarians (Adversus Mathematicos I) by : Sextus (Empiricus.)
Book excerpt: Blank presents a new translation into clear modern English of a key treatise by one of the greatest of ancient philosophers, together with the first ever commentary on this work. Sextus Empiricus's Against the Grammarians is a polemical attack on ancient Greek ideas about grammar, and provides one of the best examples of sustained Sceptical reasoning.
