Empedocles' Cosmic Cycle: A Reconstruction from the Fragments and Secondary Sources - Cambridge Classical Studies
Denis O'Brien
The cosmic cycle described in the surviving fragments of Empedocles' poem is the alternation, in endless succession, of Love and Strife. Dr O'Brien's book is primarily an analysis of this elaborate system. It seeks to determine the positions which Love and Strife occupy in the world at different times.
