Italian-School of Philosophy

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature

By-the Italian school is properly understood the blending of the Pythagorean and Eleatic systems of philosophy into one. It is sometimes, however, used of the Pythagorean system merely. The reason for designating it as the Italian school is because Pythagoras is said to have taught ill Italy. (See PYTHAGORAS).
