Myles Burnyeat – Platonism and Aristotelianism were both opposed to ancient Materialism
"I think it's important to remember there were two philosophies opposed to materialism in the ancient world. There was materialism in the form of the atomic doctrine held by Democritus and Epicurus and there were the Anti-Materialist Philosophers Plato and Aristotle ... both of whom are opposed to the suggestion that everything ... life, order, mind, civilization, art, nature ... can all be explained as the outcome of movements of particles ... of matter, subject just to the laws of motion and their own nature. Now ... Aristotelianism is opposed to that sort of materialism but Aristotelianism carries the war so far into the enemy camp that it is actually very hard to reconcile the Aristotelian philosophy with the modern scientific enterprise, ..."

His works demonstrate his focus on politics and intellectual movements, but the questions he raises are so profound and provocative that even the most educated academics in history have in some way been influenced by him, and in practically every age there have been philosophers who count themselves Platonists.

Miles Burnyeat on Plato: Section 1
The dialogues of Plato are analyzed in this program by Cambridge philosophy professor Miles Burnyeat. Seeing Plato's ideas initially as extensions of those of his teacher, Socrates, Burnyeat explains the development and content of Plato's original; doctrines of knowledge as virtue, the immortality and tripartite division of the soul, and the theory of forms (ideas). Plato's political philosophy is discussed within the context of the notion of the ideal state—a political utopia ruled by philosopher kings.
