Description
""Plotinus, The Father of Western Mysticism"" by Rufus Jones is a comprehensive study of the life, philosophy, and teachings of the ancient Greek philosopher Plotinus. Plotinus is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Western mysticism, and his writings have had a profound impact on the development of Christian theology, as well as on the mystical traditions of Judaism and Islam.The book begins with an overview of Plotinus' life and works, tracing his intellectual development from his early years in Alexandria to his later years in Rome, where he founded his own school of philosophy. Jones then delves into Plotinus' philosophical system, exploring his ideas on the nature of reality, the relationship between the individual and the divine, and the role of contemplation and meditation in achieving spiritual enlightenment.Throughout the book, Jones draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources to provide a detailed and nuanced portrait of Plotinus and his philosophy. He also explores the ways in which Plotinus' ideas have been interpreted and adapted by later thinkers, including the Neoplatonists, the Christian mystics, and the Sufi poets of Islam.Overall, ""Plotinus, The Father of Western Mysticism"" is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Western philosophy and mysticism, as well as for those seeking a deeper understanding of the spiritual traditions that have shaped our world.THIS 44 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Some Exponents of Mystical Religion, by Rufus Jones.
