THE PROMETHEUS TRUST

Ancient Wisdom for Modern Life

The Prometheus Trust is a registered educational charity (no. 299648) dedicated to the restoration of the ancient mystery tradition of the west, as a living counterpart to that of the  east.  This tradition embraces both religion and philosophy and leads its students to the discovery of  psychosophy - the wisdom of the soul. Click here for details of the Trust.

The Trust has republished the entire works of Thomas Taylor, the great English Platonist, in a uniform edition of thirty-three volumes.  This Thomas Taylor Series represents the most comprehensive survey  of the Platonic mystical philosophy in the English language: it not only includes the complete works of Plato and Aristotle, but also most of the surviving works of the  late Platonic commentators who revealed the  hidden symbology within Plato's writings.  The series presents the Orphic hymns, Pythogorean writings, works by such authors as Proclus, Plotinus, Porphyry, Iamblichus, Julian, Apuleius, Maximus Tyrius, and Pausanias  among many others.

Platonic Texts and Translations - our latest publishing project, bringing back into print late Platonic texts and translations from some of the most highly regarded of scholars of recent years, including  John M Dillon and L G Westerink.  Our editions benefit from additions and amendments from their translators, and are presented in hardback covers.  Click here for details 

Other books available from the Prometheus Trust include a wide range of introductory paperbacks, as will as L J Rosan's The Philosophy of Proclus, and A Uzdavinys' Philosophy as a Rite of Rebirth.  Please click here for details
