Description
The Life of Pythagoras by Iamblichus is a biography of the famous Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on his early life and the second part on his teachings and philosophy. In the first part, Iamblichus describes Pythagoras' birth and childhood in Samos, his travels to Egypt and Babylon, and his eventual establishment of a school in Croton, Italy. The author also discusses Pythagoras' interest in music and mathematics, and how he believed that these subjects were interconnected with philosophy and spirituality.The second part of the book delves deeper into Pythagoras' teachings and beliefs, including his ideas about the nature of the universe, the soul, and the afterlife. Iamblichus also describes the rituals and practices of Pythagoreanism, such as the use of symbols and the importance of vegetarianism.Throughout the book, Iamblichus draws on various sources to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of Pythagoras' life and teachings.
