Book Synopsis PLOTINUS EnneadV.8 On Intelligible Beauty by : Andrew Smith
Download or read book PLOTINUS EnneadV.8 On Intelligible Beauty written by Andrew Smith and published by Parmenides Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plotinus' Ennead V.8, originally part of a single work (with III.8, V.5, and II.9), provides the foundation for a positive view of the universe as an image of divine beauty against the Gnostic rejection of the world. Although it emphasizes the cosmic dimension of beauty, it is, as are most treatises of Plotinus, concerned with the individual soul. The notion that the artist has within him an idea of beauty that derives directly from the intelligible world in fact coincides with his theory that each one of us has access to Intellect through his or her own intellect. It is the exploitation of this theme that forms the central dynamic of the treatise, with its stress on our ability to "e;see"e; and be one with the intelligible world and its beauty.

Download or read book PLOTINUS Ennead I.6 On Beauty written by Andrew Smith and published by Parmenides Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ennead I.6 is probably the best known and most influential treatise of Plotinus, especially for Renaissance artists and thinkers. Although the title may suggest a work on aesthetics and thus of limited focus, this is far from the case. For it quickly becomes apparent that Plotinus' main interest is in transcendent beauty, which he identifies with the Good, the goal of all philosophical endeavor in the Platonist's search to assimilate himself with the divine. The treatise is at once a philosophical search for the nature of the divine and at the same time an encouragement to the individual to aspire to this goal by taking his start from the beauty which is experienced in this world; for it is an image of transcendent beauty. This upward movement of the treatise reflects throughout the speech of Socrates in Plato's Symposium in which he recounts the exhortation of the priestess Diotima to ascend from earthly to transcendent beauty, which for Plotinus is identified with the divine.

Book Synopsis The Enneads of Plotinus, Volume 1 by : Paul Kalligas
Download or read book The Enneads of Plotinus, Volume 1 written by Paul Kalligas and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-12 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first volume of a groundbreaking commentary on one of the most important works of ancient philosophy, the Enneads of Plotinus—a text that formed the basis of Neoplatonism and had a deep influence on early Christian thought and medieval and Renaissance philosophy. This volume covers the first three of the six Enneads, as well as Porphyry's Life of Plotinus, a document in which Plotinus’s student—the collector and arranger of the Enneads—introduces the philosopher and his work. A landmark contribution to modern Plotinus scholarship, Paul Kalligas’s commentary is the most detailed and extensive ever written for the whole of the Enneads. For each of the treatises in the first three Enneads, Kalligas provides a brief introduction that presents the philosophical background against which Plotinus’s contribution can be assessed; a synopsis giving the main lines and the articulation of the argument; and a running commentary placing Plotinus’s thought in its intellectual context and making evident the systematic association of its various parts with each other.

Download or read book Plotinus on the Beautiful written by Stephen MacKenna and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plotinus on the Beautiful: Being the Sixth Treatise of the First Ennead The treatise of the Beautiful was the first of Plotinus' writings. The thesis of it is broadcast throughout the Enneads. Even the treatise of the Origin of Evil ends on the note of Beauty, Beauty present, dimly, in all visible evil lest men be disheartened and the gods unhappy, present "for remembrance." For all the Universe is symbol, by right of being Emanation, and the One-All is the Eternal Beauty. A certain literalness here and there is intentional: the translation belongs to an entire version now well in hand, the first complete in English, and that may appear in the whole to be only the due respect of mannerism which in an isolated fragment gives a jar.

Download or read book Plotinus on Beauty written by Ota Gál and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. In this book, Ota Gál presents a new analysis of Plotinus' conception of beauty, beginning from a close reading of treatises I.6 and V.8, which link beauty with the unified multiplicity of Intellect. This account is subsequently placed in a hierarchical and structural context in VI.2 and VI.6 and connected to illumination in VI.7, enabling us to determine the meaning of the predicate “beauty” at different ontological levels. For Plotinus, beauty is ultimately the illuminated unity in multiplicity of Intellect, which, as the manifestation of the Good, simultaneously enables the soul’s ascent and threatens to bind the soul to itself.
