Buch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - An inward voyage at the heart of Western metaphysics. Mystery and clarity meet here. Select Works of Plotinus, translated from the Greek by Thomas Taylor and accompanied by an introduction containing the substance of Porphyry's Life of Plotinus, gathers the essential essays of a thinker whose metaphysical vision shaped late antiquity and continues to resonate. This neoplatonist philosophy collection functions both as a philosophical works anthology and as a vivid doorway into classical Greek philosophy: it moves confidently between metaphysics and mysticism while opening paths for soul and intellect exploration. Taylor's English renders the Greek with a fidelity that preserves technical argument while allowing the prose to read as luminous meditation; the result is a rare balance of mind and spirit that makes these ancient wisdom texts unexpectedly immediate. For students and tutors, the book is a practical philosophy students resource and a robust academic philosophy reference, supplying primary texts that illuminate third century philosophy and the wider field of late antiquity thinkers. Casual readers curious about spiritual metaphysics will discover compelling ideas that reward reflective reading, and scholars working in porphyry and plotinus studies will find a dependable companion for tracing the reception of Plato and Neoplatonism. The introduction and selection emphasise historical context as well as philosophical substance, so the volume works equally as an accessible introduction and as a serious volume for collectors of classical literature. Taken together, the selection and introduction anchor Plotinus within his biography and intellectual world, offering a sustained map for ongoing study and personal reflection. Collectors of classical literature will appreciate how the selection traces the English reception of Neoplatonism. Taylor's translations stand as a historical moment in the transmission of Plato and Neoplatonism into modern thought.Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.…
