An Ethical Theory in the Old Academy

Abstract: By examining the passage on virtues in the Epinomis, possibly by Philip of Opus, I aim to show that the ethical theory expounded there differs both from the account of the Laws and from the notions we find in the fragmentary evidence concerning the Old Academy. Unlike the account in the Laws the unity of virtue is provided, not by justice, but by piety interpreted as a virtue involving mathematics, especially astronomy. The peculiar importance of mathematics in virtue is not attested in any of the other author… Show more

“…Endogenous agonists --β-alanine [2158,2218] --Agonists angiotensin-(1-7) (AGT, P01019) [758] -Mouse ----Comments --An endogenous peptide with a high degree of sequence similarity to angiotensin-(1-7) (AGT, P01019), alamandine (AGT), was shown to promote NO release in MRGPRD-transfected cells. The binding of alamandine to MRGPRD to was shown to be blocked by D-Pro 7 -angiotensin-(1-7), β-alanine and PD123319 [1303]. Genetic ablation of MRGPRD+ neurons of adult mice decreased behavioural sensitivity to mechanical stimuli but not to thermal stimuli [334].…”
