Book Synopsis Olympiodorus: Life of Plato and On Plato First Alcibiades 1–9 by : Michael Griffin
Download or read book Olympiodorus: Life of Plato and On Plato First Alcibiades 1–9 written by Michael Griffin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olympiodorus (AD c. 500–570), possibly the last non-Christian teacher of philosophy in Alexandria, delivered these lectures as an introduction to Plato with a biography. For us, they can serve as an accessible introduction to late Neoplatonism. Olympiodorus locates the First Alcibiades at the start of the curriculum on Plato, because it is about self-knowledge. His pupils are beginners, able to approach the hierarchy of philosophical virtues, like the aristocratic playboy Alcibiades. Alcibiades needs to know himself, at least as an individual with particular actions, before he can reach the virtues of mere civic interaction. As Olympiodorus addresses mainly Christian students, he tells them that the different words they use are often symbols of truths shared between their faiths.

Book Synopsis Olympiodorus: Commentary on Platos Gorgias by : Robin Jackson
Download or read book Olympiodorus: Commentary on Platos Gorgias written by Robin Jackson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a translation of the only surving ancient commentary on Plato's Goroias, written by the Alexandrian Platonist Olympiodorus in the sixth century A.D. There are substantial notes on the commentary, which assist the reader to understand the context of Olympiodorus' Platonism, the choices available to him as an interpreter, and the special characteristics of his interpretation. A full introduction tackles the issues of greatest interest that arise from the work, including the author's mission as a Hellenist resisting Christian attacks on his discipline. Indices are provided. The authors show that there is much more of value in this commentary than has often been supposed, and that the differences between Olympiodorus' approach and those of modern commentators are often illuminating.

Book Synopsis Death and Immortality in Late Neoplatonism by : Sebastian Ramon Philipp Gertz
Download or read book Death and Immortality in Late Neoplatonism written by Sebastian Ramon Philipp Gertz and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-07-27 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The belief in the immortality of the soul has been described as one of the “twin pillars of Platonism” and is famously defended by Socrates in Plato’s Phaedo. The ancient commentaries on the dialogue by Olympiodorus and Damascius offer a unique perspective on the reception of this belief in the Platonic tradition. Through a detailed discussion of topics such as suicide, the life of the philosopher and arguments for immortality, this study demonstrates the commentators’ serious engagement with problems in Plato’s text as well as the dialogue's importance to Neoplatonic ethics. The book will be of interest to students of Plato and the Platonic tradition, and to those working on ancient ethics and psychology.

Book Synopsis Elias and David: Introductions to Philosophy with Olympiodorus: Introduction to Logic by : Sebastian Gertz
Download or read book Elias and David: Introductions to Philosophy with Olympiodorus: Introduction to Logic written by Sebastian Gertz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-05 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three ancient philosophical introductions translated in this volume flesh out our picture of what it would have been like to sit in a first-year Philosophy course in ancient Alexandria. Ammonius (AD 445-517/26) set up a new teaching programme in Alexandria with up to six introductions to the philosophy curriculum, which made it far more accessible, and encouraged its spread from Greek to other cultures. This volume's three introductory texts include one by his student Olympiodorus and one each by Olympiodorus' students Elias and David. Elias' Introductions to Philosophy starts with six definitions of Philosophy, to which David adds replies to the sceptical question whether there is such a thing as Philosophy. Olympiodorus' text translated here is an Introduction to Logic, which is just one of the three introductions he wrote himself.
