Hardback. Condition: New. Until the Renaissance, the work of Calcidius offered the medieval West almost the only direct access to Plato's corpus not dispersed in fragments. In the 4th century CE, Calcidius translated into Latin an important section of Plato's Timaeus, complemented by extensive commentary and organized into coordinated parts. The first part is broadly devoted to the architecture of the world, to its intelligible structure. The second delves into the nature of the living creatures that inhabit it. This basic division subsequently informed the sense of macrocosm and microcosm-of the world and our place in it-which is prevalent in western European thought in the Middle Ages. At the same time, this medieval volume altered perspectives on Plato by drawing on other philosophical traditions, particularly the Stoic and Peripatetic, while including Judeo-Christian cosmology and anthropology. The present edition provides the first English translation of Calcidius's work.…

Leiden, Brill, 1959. VIII,256 pp. Softcover. (Philosophia antiqua, Vol. 9).This study by J.C.M. van Winden is the foundational monograph on the 4th-century philosopher's commentary on Plato's Timaeus. It analyzes Calcidius's unique, syncretic interpretation of prime matter as a key milestone linking Middle Platonism and early Christian philosophy. - - Calcidius (or Chalcidius) was a 4th-century philosopher who translated the first part (to 53c) of Plato's Timaeus from Greek into Latin around the year 321 and provided with it an extensive commentary. This was likely done for Bishop Hosius of Córdoba. Very little is otherwise known of him.…
