Description
The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism is a book written by Thomas Whittaker, which explores the philosophical school of Neo-Platonism that emerged in the Hellenistic period. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the Neo-Platonic movement, which was founded by the philosopher Plotinus and developed by his followers, including Porphyry, Iamblichus, and Proclus. Whittaker delves into the central tenets of Neo-Platonism, which emphasize the existence of a transcendent reality beyond the material world, the importance of spiritual purification, and the concept of the One as the ultimate source of all being. The book also examines the influence of Neo-Platonism on later philosophical and religious traditions, including Christianity and Islamic philosophy. The author draws on a wide range of primary sources, including the writings of the Neo-Platonists themselves, as well as secondary sources from the fields of philosophy, history, and religion. The book is written in an accessible style that makes it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in the history of philosophy and Hellenistic culture. Overall, The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism is a valuable contribution to the field of ancient philosophy and an essential read for anyone interested in the development of philosophical thought in the ancient world.1901.
