Paperback. Zustand: Very good. Reissue. Pap. Octavo. 1977 paperback edition (first published 1967). vii, 279 pp. Moderate rubbing, toning, and edge wear to wraps; top corner of front wrap slightly creased. Some age-toning to text block. Former owner's signature on half title page. Else clean and bright. This 1967 study of Plotinus' philosophy was the first comprehensive work in English since Inge's The Philosophy of Plotinus was published early in the twentieth century. After a brief biography of Plotinus, Professor Rist discusses, among other topics, Plotinus' concept of the one, the logos and free will and ends with a discussion of faith in Plotinus and later in Neoplatonism. Perhaps because he is strictly neither a classical nor a medieval philosopher Plotinus' work has been rather neglected in the English-speaking world. Professor Rist has rescued him from this relative obscurity and has indicated some of the ways in which he has influenced both Christian and non-Christian philosophers.
