Download or read book Plato Revived written by Filip Karfík and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays compiled in this volume individually address the varied forms in which the revival of Platonism manifested itself in ancient philosophy. It pays special attention to the issues of unity and beauty, the mind and knowledge, the soul and the body, virtue and happiness, and additionally considers the political and religious dimensions of Platonic thought. Starting from Plato and Aristotle, the studies examine the multiple transformational forms of Platonism, including the Neo-Platonists – Plotinus, Porphyrios, Iamblichus, Themistius, Proclus, and Marinus – along with Christian thinkers such as St. Augustine, Boethius, and Dionysus the Areopagite. The authors who have contributed to this volume make multiple references to the scholarly work of Dominic J. O’Meara. Their further refinement of O’Meara’s approach particularly casts a new light on Late-Platonic ethics. The essays in this collection also contribute to scholarly research about the multiple inter-relationships among the Platonists themselves and between Platonists and philosophers from other schools. Taken as a whole, this book reveals the full breadth of potential in the revival and transformation of ancient Platonism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a detailed interpretation of Plato’s texts and Platonic philosophy in its various forms and shapes as a living force in the history of philosophy, from the Hellenistic age, through the Middle Ages and Renaissance Italy, to modern England, America, Japan, and Israel. Most of the contributions here deal with the afterlife and influence of Plato’s dialogues in later Greek philosophy and in various places and periods, and approach a number of dialogues and issues from new perspectives, shedding new light on some ancient problems. These studies represent no single approach, and illustrate, in their various ways, some different methods of approaching the original and ever-surprising author that Plato has always been.

Book Synopsis The Revival of Platonism in Cicero's Late Philosophy by : William H. F. Altman
Download or read book The Revival of Platonism in Cicero's Late Philosophy written by William H. F. Altman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-04-13 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Less than two years before his murder, Cicero created a catalogue of his philosophical writings that included dialogues he had written years before, numerous recently completed works, and even one he had not yet begun to write, all arranged in the order he intended them to be read, beginning with the introductory Hortensius, rather than in accordance with order of composition. Following the order of the De divinatione catalogue, William H. F. Altman considers each of Cicero’s late works as part of a coherent philosophical project determined throughout by its author’s Platonism. Locating the parallel between Plato’s Allegory of the Cave and Cicero’s “Dream of Scipio” at the center of Cicero’s life and thought as both philosopher and orator, Altman argues that Cicero is not only “Plato’s rival” (it was Quintilian who called him Platonis aemulus) but also a peerless guide to what it means to be a Platonist, especially since Plato’s legacy was as hotly debated in his own time as it still is in ours. Distinctive of Cicero’s late dialogues is the invention of a character named “Cicero,” an amiable if incompetent adherent of the New Academy whose primary concern is only with what is truth-like (veri simile); following Augustine’s lead, Altman shows the deliberate inadequacy of this pose, and that Cicero himself, the writer of dialogues who used “Cicero” as one of many philosophical personae, must always be sought elsewhere: in direct dialogue with the dialogues of Plato, the teacher he revered and whose Platonism he revived.

Book (c)ne THE HELLENIC AGE: PLATONISM AND ITS ANTECEDENTS CHAPTER V PLATO; THE SUPKEMACY OF THE FINAL IN PLACE OF THE EFFICIENT CAUSE CHAPTER V PLATO 1. Much that has been said about Socrates must be taken as referring to the Platonic portraiture. Yet the views therein explicit are only the legitimate deductions of the master's fundamental thought. A Final Cause for the Universe; why? not whence? or what? or how? In this purposive working lay the secret of the Energy which was at the root of all being. He did not care for Anaxagoras' explanation; he was much disappointed with the frigid introduction of a Detis ex machina. Such an answer failed to satisfy his questionings, which were by no means speculative, but entirely practical, utilitarian. Plato did not care to know either what was the primal element, or how processes of alternate condensation and rarefaction produced the universe as we see it, or how man's soul was a chance medley of primordial substances, soon to be dissolved again. He thought he could see his way to a firmer ground; not so much the ground occupied by Eeason (useful as she was to dispel illusion, and convince a pupil conclusively that he knew nothing), as that of pious instinct, which he believed was found in all men.1 Similarly, Knowledge, in Socrates or Plato, 1 We find the same somewhat puzzling use in the Christian Alexandrine phrases of yvwris and vlaru; in spite of our familiar connotation of these terms, it is yvwns that implies the warm, emotional, loving confidence in God that nowadays we are inclined to call Faith. does not imply so much a result of Dialectic, as the immediate intuition of the truth, which flashes forth as soon as the sceptical work of Dialectic is completed, and has shown man.

Book Synopsis Chrysostomus Javelli by : Tommaso De Robertis
Download or read book Chrysostomus Javelli written by Tommaso De Robertis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume provides the first book-length study of Chrysostomus Javelli’s philosophical works. An Italian university professor and a prominent figure in the intellectual landscape of sixteenth-century Europe, Javelli (ca. 1470-1540) was the author of insightful commentaries on both Plato and Aristotle as well as of original works in which he laid the foundations of a new Christian philosophy. In this volume, a group of leading scholars from around the world guide readers through the many facets of Javelli’s philosophical corpus, showing the long-term impact of his ideas on Western philosophical thought. The twelve essays of this volume shed light on an understudied yet central figure of Renaissance culture, revealing new connections and unexplored influences. This book is a valuable tool for students and scholars of early modern philosophy, classical tradition, and Christian theology, contributing to the understanding of a neglected chapter of Western intellectual history.
