Paperback. Zustand: New. The Plotinus Reader provides a generous selection of translations from the fifty-four treatises that together make up the Enneads of Plotinus, a central work in the history of philosophy. They were prepared by a team of specialists in ancient philosophy and edited by Lloyd P. Gerson. Based on the definitive critical edition of the Greek along with decades of additional textual criticism by many scholars, these translations aim to provide a readable, accurate rendering of Plotinus's often very difficult language. Included are extensive references to Plotinus's sources, scores of cross-references, and an extensive glossary of technical terms.…

Plotinus is the greatest philosopher in the 700 year period between Aristotle and Augustine. He thought of himself as a disciple of Plato, but in his efforts to defend Platonism against Aristotelians, Stoics, and others, he actually produced a reinvigorated version of Platonism that later came to be known as Neoplatonism. In this volume, sixteen leading scholars introduce and explain the many facets of Plotinus' complex system. They place Plotinus in the history of ancient philosophy while showing how he was a founder of medieval philosophy.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Unearthing Platonism explores various aspects of Platonism, the dominant philosophical tradition in the west until the nineteenth century. Contemporary Plato scholarship, however, rejects a distinct philosophical position properly called "Platonism." The very idea that Plato has a philosophical "system" is mostly held to be anathema within the English-speaking academic world, but prevailed among self-declared Platonists for nearly 800 years. Lloyd P. Gerson challenges this view as he "unearths" Platonism in both historical and theoretical essays. Historical essays explore Plato's engagement with the history of philosophy as he knew it and also how his most prominent disciples understood the architecture of the Platonic system as well as the dynamic principles according to which it operates. Theoretical essays focus on the Idea of the Good, what Plato calls "the unhypothetical first principle of all," the world of Forms and the eternal Intellect contemplating them, the soul, and the human person. Unearthing Platonism shows that underlying Plato's dialogues there is a philosophical system. Recognizing this system enables us to resolve many interpretative issues that repeatedly turn up in contemporary scholarship.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. "Gerson's book is a highly valuable, well-written contribution to Platonism research. It persuasively makes a case for understanding Plato's philosophy as a coherent system that has an intricate and meaningful relation to later Platonistic philosophical positions. From this point, Plato appears as a Platonist indeed." - Claas Lattman ? CLASSICAL JOURNAL Was Plato a Platonist? While ancient disciples of Plato would have answered this question in the affirmative, modern scholars have generally denied that Plato's own philosophy was in substantial agreement with that of the Platonists of succeeding centuries. In From Plato to Platonism, Lloyd P. Gerson argues that the ancients are correct in their assessment. He arrives at this conclusion in an especially ingenious manner, challenging fundamental assumptions about how Plato's teachings have come to be understood. Through deft readings of the philosophical principles found in Plato's dialogues and in the Platonic tradition beginning with Aristotle, he shows that Platonism, broadly conceived, is the polar opposite of naturalism and that the history of philosophy from Plato until the seventeenth century was the history of various efforts to find the most consistent and complete version of "anti-naturalism." Gerson contends that the philosophical position of Plato-Plato's own Platonism, so to speak-was produced out of a matrix he calls "Ur-Platonism." According to Gerson, Ur-Platonism is the conjunction of five "antis" that in total arrive at anti-naturalism: anti-nominalism, anti-mechanism, anti-materialism, anti-relativism, and anti-skepticism. Plato's Platonism is an attempt to construct the most consistent and defensible positive system uniting the five "antis." It is also the system that all later Platonists throughout Antiquity attributed to Plato when countering attacks from critics including Peripatetics, Stoics, and Sceptics. In conclusion, Gerson shows that Late Antique philosophers such as Proclus were right in regarding Plotinus as "the great exegete of the Platonic revelation.".…
