The Greeks, and the Western history thereof, is but the application of philosophy to the Self. The Greeks were the first people in history to use the Ratio to critique themselves and their own habits. An anxiety was released, from which Faustian man came to Be.

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

No
The Greeks didn't know about any of those texts, nor did the Romans
