Collected Writings of Plotinus

Description

Reprints, for the first time, all the translations of the Enneads by Thomas Taylor. Originally published in five separate books, the Prometheus Trust makes them all available together in one volume. Plotinus stands as the great reviver of Platonism as a living philosophy, and a true basis for real mystical development. From his inspiration and work arose a line of profound thinkers, whose works remain a high-water mark in the religious and philosophical achievements of humanity. This new edition comprises 27 treatises on such subjects as, – The Good, The Immortality of the Soul, Providence, Dialectic, Virtue, Felicity, Eternity and Time, The Nature and Origin of Evil, Matter, and Intellect. Included are Taylor’s lengthy introductions and notes, an invaluable aid to the student of Plotinian writings.
