The Philosophy of Plotinus, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint): The Gifford Lectures at St. Andrews 1917-1918: The Gifford Lectures at St. Andrews 1917-1918 (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Explore Plotinus through a clear, insightful guide to Neoplatonism and mystical philosophy. This edition analyzes how Plotinus blends metaphysics, ethics, and spiritual ascent to reveal a vision of reality beyond the senses.
Plotinus is presented as a pivotal figure whose thought shaped later Christian and philosophical traditions. The lectures trace the third-century context, the rise of Neoplatonism, and the enduring questions about matter, mind, and the soul. Clear explanations connect ancient ideas to enduring questions about reality, value, and the nature of divine unity.
- Understand the core triads of Plotinus’ system: the Absolute, Spirit, and Soul, and their roles in human life.
- Learn how the world of sense relates to higher realities and how value judgments fit into a unified view of being.
- See how Neoplatonism influenced later Christian thought and the broader history of philosophy.
- Grasp practical themes about morality, contemplation, and the path to knowledge of the eternal.
Ideal for readers of classical philosophy, theology, and the history of ideas who want a concise, accessible introduction to Plotinus and his influence.
