Routledge - Reason, Faith and Otherness in Neoplatonic Thought

This collection from Routledge brings together a significant selection of Kevin Corrigan's work published over a 27-year period. The text explores the encounter with otherness across ancient, medieval, and modern thought, providing a deep look into historical philosophical developments. The scope of these studies is broad, covering the Presocratics through Plato, Aristotle, and Plotinus, as well as the late ancient period. Readers will find detailed examinations of early Christian thought, with a specific focus on the works of Gregory of Nyssa and Augustine, extending through to Aquinas. By examining the relationship between faith and reason, the nature of creation, and the concepts of being and existence, this volume serves as a comprehensive resource for those studying the intersection of literature, philosophy, and history. It is an essential addition for scholars interested in the evolution of Neoplatonic and early Christian ideas.
