Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Select Works of Plotinus' provides a profound gateway into the thought of one of the most influential philosophers of late antiquity. Plotinus, the founder of Neoplatonism, sought to synthesize and expand upon the teachings of Plato, focusing on the nature of the One, the Intellect, and the Soul. This collection, translated by the renowned Platonist Thomas Taylor, includes key treatises that explore the hierarchy of existence and the soul's journey toward divine union.The volume covers essential metaphysical concepts, including the emanation of reality from a single source and the relationship between the material world and the realm of forms. Taylor's translations are celebrated for their philosophical depth and their attempt to capture the spiritual intensity of the original Greek texts. Readers will encounter rigorous dialectic alongside mystical insights, offering a comprehensive view of Plotinian thought.As a cornerstone of Western philosophy, 'Select Works of Plotinus' influenced centuries of theological and philosophical development, from early Christian mysticism to Renaissance humanism.
