Description

Explore the profound evolution of Neoplatonist thought in this scholarly work by Benedetto Neola. This book examines the transition of philosophical identity from the third-fourth century through the fifth-sixth century, tracing the lineage from Iamblichus to Damascius. Neola investigates how these thinkers redefined the role of the philosopher, moving beyond mere intellectualism to view the philosopher as a divine soul tasked with rescuing humanity from the material world. Readers will gain insight into how figures such as Pythagoras, Socrates, and Plato were viewed as beings untouched by the charms of the sensible realm. The text details how these ancient thinkers acted as ritual practitioners whose sacred mission was realized through the power of speech rather than traditional temple rites. This volume is an essential resource for those studying the history of religion and the development of late antique philosophy within the BERG series.
