Book synopsis

The articles compiled in this collection are the product of forty years of research devoted to Plotinus and his famous disciple, Porphyrius. These studies appear in a variety of styles. Some consist of summary or general presentations of these authors’ thoughts, while others focus on specific doctrinal matters—notably, Plotinus’ or Porphyrius’ Theory of Being. Still others explore psychological themes such as autoeroticism in the works of Plotinus or, lastly, deal with textual criticism-related issues. The two thinkers’ spiritual environment has not been overlooked – particularly the strange phenomenon of the Chaldean Oracles.
