Iamblichus – The Platonic Commentaries

Description

This is a new edition of Professor Dillon’s 1972 collection and translation of the fragments of Iamblichus’ Commentaries on the Platonic Dialogues – it benefits from the translator’s amendments to his original edition gathered over the ensuing  thirty-seven years of scholarly work.   With extensive commentary by the translator.
This perhaps more than any other English language publication shows how much Iamblichus deserves to be seen in the light of what might be called mainstream late Platonic philosophy, rather than a merely a “theurgic specialist.”
