Plotinus (c. AD 205-270) can be regarded as the greatest Greek philosopher of late Antiquity, and as the father of Neoplatonism. His Enneads (`the nines') are now recognised as seminal works in the development of Western thought. This book is the only detailed scholarly commentary available on this part of Plotinus' work, and should be invaluable to all scholars interested in ancient philosophy and early Christian theology. All Greek in the commentary is translated.

a welcome addition to the increasing number of commentaries on individual treatises of Plotinus ... The translation on facing pages is accurate and fluid, and F. helpfully breaks it down into small paragraphs that represent more precisely the subtle shifts in Plotinus' presentation. F.'s is a sound work of scholarship that all Plotinian scholars will profitably consult. This is a well-written monograph on an important topic. (John Bussanich, University of New Mexico, The Classical Review, Vol. XLVI, Vol. 2, '96)
This is not only one of the few English commentaries on any single treatise of Plotinus, but it is an informed and informative translation. (Religious Studies Review, vol.23, no.1, January 1997)
The translation reads well and ... the commentary is generally excellent. (H.J. Blumenthal, Univ of Liverpool, Hermathena)

"With the growth of interest in later Greek philosophy, the importance of Plotinus (AD 205-270) as a seminal influence on later thinkers, both pagan and Christian, is being increasingly recognized. The Enneads have been readily available for some time, both in Greek and in English translation, and there is no shortage of scholarly writing on the Enneads in general, and on particular aspects of Plotinus' thought. However, apart from Michael Atkinson's translation and commentary on Ennead V.1 (Clarendon Press, 1985), there has been no major commentary in English on any single treatise. Plotinus' Greek is notoriously obscure, and mere translation often sheds little light. Barrie Fleet's translation and commentary on Ennead III.6 elucidates the text of a major treatise in which Plotinus uses the concept of impassivity to shed light on three questions of importance to Platonists: the nature of change in the human soul; its analogue in the Sensible World; and the nature of Matter. Dr Fleet shows how texts of Plato and Aristotle, and Hellenistic commentaries on them, were central to the seminars held in Rome under the leadership of Plotinus. This treatise is the outcome of one such seminar. All Greek quotations in the commentary are translated into English, and all Greek terms are either translated or transliterated, making this edition fully accessible to readers with or without Greek."
