Parmenides sure is an interesting fella.
I wonder what the world would've been like if Empedocles' shoe hadn't been found... that'd be an interesting alternate history, if philosophy never progressed past Empedocles and Parmenides lol.

is it just me or does Copleston seem overeager to show that the Greeks didn't seize the title of First Philosophers from any other civilization in the ancient world? I'm not saying he's being racist about it, but he's certainly edging towards it :/ Then again, this was written in what, the 50s? 70s?
