Ennead, Volume 5: That the Intelligibles Are Not External to the Intellect, and on the Good

Beschreibung

This treatise sets out the case for the internality of Forms and argues for the necessary existence of an absolutely simple and transcendent first principle of all, the One or the Good. Not only Intellect and the Forms, but everything else depends on this principle for their being.
