Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
In this volume, the relationships between two of the most vital currents in Western thought are examined by a group of nineteen internationally known specialists in a variety of disciplines—classics, patristics, philosophy, theology, history of ideas, and literature.

Contributors include G.-H. Allard, A. Hilary Armstrong, Elizabeth Bieman, Linos Benakis, Henry Blumenthal, Mary T. Clark, Norris Clarke, John Dillon, Cornelio Fabro, John N. Findlay, Maurice de Gandillac, Edward P. Mahoney, Bernard McGinn, Dominic J. O'Meara, John J. O'Meara, Jean Pépin, Mary Carman Rose, Henri-Dominique Saffrey, Charles B. Schmitt, and Gérard Verbeke.

Neoplatonism and Western Aesthetics
Author: Aphrodite AlexandrakisPublisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 0791489035
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Grouped together in four broad headings, the essays in this book offer a well-balanced examination of both Neoplatonic aesthetics and its significance in Western art. The concept of "beautiful" and its influence on Christian thinkers is addressed in the works of various Neoplatonists from Plotinus to Proclus. The book also shows how historically the Neoplatonic concept of beauty is investigated and utilized by certain renowned artists and architects. Also discussed is the influence of Neoplatonism in contemporary discussions involving the creative process and the aesthetic experience generally. Furthermore, the concept of the beautiful plays a central role in discussions involving processes governing the generation of the world in Plotinus' works.
Simplicius the Neoplatonist in Light of Contemporary Research
Author: Ilsetraut HadotPublisher: Academia Verlag
ISBN: 9783896658944
Category : Neoplatonism
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
Dieses Buch bietet, erstmals in englischer Sprache, eine Zusammenschau der modernen Forschung zu Simplikios' Leben und drei seiner funf Kommentare: Zu Epictetus' Encheiridion, zu Aristoteles' De anima und zu Aristoteles' Kategorien. Der biografische Teil bringt die historische Rolle dieses neoplatonischen Philosophen ans Licht. Geboren in Kilikien, Kleinasien, studierte er in Alexandria und Athen und beendete offenbar sein Leben in Syrien an der Grenze zwischen dem byzantinischen und sassanidischen Reich. Er war ein Vermittler zwischen der griechisch-romischen und der syrischen Philosophie, die die arabische Philosophie zu Beginn nahren sollte. Der zweite Teil des Buches, der sich mit Fragen der Lehre und der Autorschaft befasst, widmet sich auch dem zugrunde liegenden padagogischen Curriculum und den Methoden, die neoplatonischen Kommentaren eigen sind, die moderne Interpretation in Studien uber Simplicius und andere Neoplatonisten nur zu gerne ubersehen.
