Themistius, The Last Peripatetic Commentator on Aristotle?
Aristotle and Neoplatonism in Late Antiquity
Iamblichus as a Commentator
HJ. Blumenthal: Iamblichus as a Commentator Iamblichus as a Commentator Henry J. Blumenthal Twenty two years ago, when tiiat growtii in interest in Neoplatonism which is a s??a?t??? of this conference was only just getting under way, two large books appeared which will be famUiar to all who are interested in Iamblichus. I am referring, of course, to JM. Dillon's collection of die fragmentary remains of Iamblichus' commentaries on Plato's dialogue…
On soul and intellect
Readers of the Companion who have arrived at this chapter should be well aware of the fact that Plotinus was a Platonist. One might add that in spite of the fact that he has always been regarded as the founder of Neoplatonism, he himself would not have known what the Greek equivalent of that word might have meant, since all the Platonists of late antiquity regarded themselves as Platonists tout simple, and their philosophy as the exposition of th…
The Cambridge Companion to Plotinus
Each volume of this series of companions to major philosophers contains specially commissioned essays by an international team of scholars, together with a substantial bibliography, and will serve as a reference work for students and non-specialists. One aim of the series is to dispel the intimidation such readers often feel when faced with the work of a difficult and challenging thinker. Plotinus was the greatest philosopher in the 700-year peri…
Plotinus on Sense-Perception
Oxford Studies In Ancient Philosophy
This volume contains papers by a group of leading experts on Aristotle and the later Aristotelian tradition of Neoplatonism. The discussion ranges from Aristotle's treatment of Parmenides, the most important pre-Socratic Greek philosopher, to Neoplatonic and medieval use of Aristotle, for which Aristotle himself set guidelines in his discussions of his predecessors. Traces of these guidelines can be seen in the work of Plotinus, and that of the l…

Proclus on Perception
Some Platonist readings of Aristotle
The first point I should make is that ‘Platonist readings’ in the context of this paper means the reading of Aristotle by Neoplatonist interpreters who were armed with powerful Platonic prejudices. If I have avoided starting with the description ‘Neoplatonist’ that is because the philosophers involved would not so have described themselves. Notoriously they thought that they were Platonists, and, moreover, Platonists like Plato himself. This migh…

De Jamblique a Proclus
Neoplatonic Elements in the De Anima Commentaries1
ost scholars who refer to the Greek commentators for help in the understanding of difficult Aristotelian texts seem to expect straightforward scholarly treatment of their problems.2 Not infrequently they are disappointed and complain about the irrelevance of the commentary they read, or inveigh against the incompetence of the commentators.3 Only Alexander is generally exempt from such censure, and that in itself is significant.

Two decades later, again at a time of war and ferment, the distinguished American historian and statesman headed the American legation in Berlin. His erudition, social grace, and political acumen qualified him as eminently…
