Plotinus (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Plotinus

In presenting to the public a new edition of Thomas Taylor's Select Works of Plotinus it will not be out of place to show cause for what may be considered by many a somewhat temerous proceeding. What has the present English-reading public to do with Plotinus; what still further has it to do with the translations of Thomas Taylor?

In the following paragraphs, I hope to show that the temper of the public mind of to-day, with regard to the problems of religion and philosophy, is very similar to that of the times of Plotinus.
