Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. No Dust Jacket. Gift inscription in pen to ffep from author. Else book is fine.; The Platonic Form is often presented as an instrument of explanation and as a cause in ontology, epistemology, and ethics. As such, it is usually approached from the perspective of its relations to the particulars of the sensible world. Frederic Schroeder contends that Plotinus argues for the sovereignty of the Platonic Form both as a ground of being and as an intrinsically valuable object of intellective and spiritual vision. These two aspects coalesce in the thought of Plotinus, for whom the Form is, apart from its philosophical uses, an object of enjoyment. Schroeder argues also that the particular must be seen as having an intrinsic character, distinct from its relationship to the Form or to other particulars. The particular thus becomes a window on the world of Form. In the course of his exploration of the sovereignty of Form, Schroeder examines the themes of illumination, silence, language, and love. He undertakes an immanent interpretation of the Plotinian text, showing how Plotinian vocabulary displays intricate internal connections and genetic relationships. Schroeder shows that Plotinus' thought is not susceptible to organization into a closed, linear synthesis but has its own order, centred on the conviction that Form is of intrinsic value and that it is only from the perspective of this intrinsic value that we can understand its uses and significance in explanation and causation. Rather than trying to construct such a synthesis, Schroeder, starting from this basic insight into Plotinus' understanding of the Platonic Form, leads the reader to a greater understanding of Plotinus' manner of philosophizing.; Mcgill-Queen?s Studies in the History of Ideas; 9.1 X 6.0 X 0.6 inches; 144 pages; Signed by Author.…

Reprint. Zustand: Gut. pp. 105-120. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication by the author to W. Haase. - Lightly bumped, author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise very clean. - From the text: The authorship of the De Intellectu. In a recent book, I have argued against the common attribution of the De Intellectu to Alexander of Aphrodisias. It is impossible, from considerations of space, to do full justice to that argument here. The present paper assumes a knowledge of and a measure of agreement with that argument. It will suffice here to provide a brief summary. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…
