Plato S "Parmenides" and Its Heritage: Volume 1: History and Interpretation from the Old Academy to Later Platonism and Gnosticism
Langbeschreibung
The theme of Volume 1 is the dissolution of firm boundaries for thinking about the tradition of Parmenides interpretation from the Old Academy through Middle Platonism and Gnosticism. The volume suggests a radically different interpretation of the history of thought from Plato to Proclus than is customary by arguing against Proclus s generally accepted view that there was no metaphysical interpretation of the Parmenides before Plotinus in the third century C.E.
