Plotinus on the Soul

Beschreibung

This is the first comprehensive study of Plotinus' theory of the soul for half a century. It shows how Plotinus derives his psychology from an innovative interpretation of Plato's Timaeus and proposes it as a response to Aristotelian and Stoic conceptions of the soul.
