Conventional wisdom suggests that the Platonist philosophers of Late Antiquity, from Plotinus (third century) to the sixth-century schools in Athens and Alexandria, neglected the political dimension of their Platonic heritage in their concentration on an otherworldly life. Dominic O'Meara presents a revelatory reappraisal of these thinkers.
... a lucid, orderly and comprehensive survey ... Erudite and judicious.
Zusammenfassung
Conventional wisdom suggests that the Platonist philosophers of Late Antiquity neglected the political dimension of their Platonic heritage in their concentration on an otherworldly life.
