Excerpt from Procli Philosophi Platonici Opera Inedita: Quae Primus Olim E Codd. Mss. Parisinis Italicisque Vulgaverat Nunc Secundis Curis Emendavit Et Auxit
Et puis, si l'intelligence n'est pas dans l'unité primitive, comment en viendra t-elle? Si l'intelligence n'est pas première, elle ne sera jamais, elle ne peut plus être. Comment faire venir l'intelligence après l'unité absolue qui, par elle même, ne la contient point, et qui ne peut pas la produire? Il en est de même de la puissance. Comment sortirait-elle de l'unité pure?

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a philosophical exploration of Proclus, the last prominent representative of Neoplatonic thought. It sheds light on his life, philosophy, and contributions to ancient Greek thought. The author positions Proclus within the broader context of the Neoplatonic school and delves into the essence of his mystical and metaphysical ideas, which sought to reconcile Plato's philosophy with other spiritual traditions. The book examines Proclus's concept of the One, the nature of reality, the role of contemplation, and the relationship between the human soul and the divine. By analyzing his writings, including "Elements of Theology" and commentaries on Plato's dialogues, the author uncovers the depth and significance of Proclus's philosophical system, illuminating his unique perspective on the nature of being and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment.
