"Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) was the leading Platonic philosopher of the Renaissance and is generally recognized as the greatest authority on ancient Platonism before modern times. Among his greatest accomplishments as a scholar was his 1492 Latin translation of the complete works of Plotinus (204-270 CE), the founder of Neoplatonism. The 1492 edition also contained an immense commentary that remained for centuries the principle introduction to Plotinus's works for Western scholars. At the same time, it constitutes a major statement of Ficino's own late metaphysics. The I Tatti edition, planned in six volumes, contains the first modern edition of the Latin text and the first translation into any modern language."--

Fra le dottrine di Platone, l'immortalità dell'anima è sempre stata ritenuta centrale. Ma quale parte dell'anima è immortale, solo quella razionale? E se lo è in quanto affine alla realtà intelligibile, che è eterna e immateriale, perché si trova qui, nel mondo sensibile? Platone non sembra avere una posizione univoca. Questi problemi, cruciali nella storia del platonismo antico, vengono affrontati in modo nuovo da Plotino, nel III secolo della nostra era. Convinto che la corretta definizione di "anima" sia il punto di partenza per la loro soluzione, egli dedica un'ampia parte confutatoria all'emergentismo stoico e all'epifenomenismo, incarnato per lui dalla dottrina "pitagorica" dell'anima-armonia e dalla dottrina aristotelica dell'anima atto del corpo. Utilizzando tutta la letteratura di controversia della sua epoca - soprattutto Alessandro di Afrodisia e Plutarco -, egli affronta le concezioni dell'anima diverse da quella platonica sul loro stesso terreno, mirando a dimostrare che nessuna soddisfa le istanze per le quali era stata formulata. Solo il platonismo, inteso in un senso profondamente riformato, dà conto della vera natura dell'anima, compresa la quale si comprenderà che l'anima è immortale. Questo scritto fu tradotto in arabo nel IX secolo e fu incluso quasi per intero in un'opera, detta Teologia di Aristotele, destinata ad esercitare una grande influenza sulla filosofia arabo-musulmana. Attribuita cosi ad Aristotele, la dottrina dell'immortalità dell'anima divenne uno dei temi principali del pensiero filosofico in lingua araba, fino ad Avicenna ed oltre. In questo volume il trattato di Plotino, con testo greco, traduzione e commento, è seguito dall'edizione con traduzione e commento della sua versione araba.

The point of view put forth in the following pages differs greatly from the common perspective according to which the treatises 30 to 33 constitute a single work, a Großschrift , and this single work, Plotinus’ essential response to the Gnostics. Our perspective is that of an ongoing discussions with his “Gnostic”—yet Platonizing—friends, which started early in his writings (at least treatise 6), developed into what we could call a Großzyklus (treatises 27 to 39), and went on in later treatises as well (e. g. 47-48, 51). The prospect of an ongoing discussion with the Gnostics bears an additional virtue, that of allowing for a truly dynamic understanding of the Plotinian corpus.

This is the first volume of a groundbreaking commentary on one of the most important works of ancient philosophy, the Enneads of Plotinus-a text that formed the basis of Neoplatonism and had a deep influence on early Christian thought and medieval and Renaissance philosophy. This volume covers the first three of the six Enneads, as well as Porphyry's Life of Plotinus, a document in which Plotinus's student-the collector and arranger of the Enneads-introduces the philosopher and his work. A landmark contribution to modern Plotinus scholarship, Paul Kalligas's commentary is the most detailed and extensive ever written for the whole of the Enneads. For each of the treatises in the first three Enneads, Kalligas provides a brief introduction that presents the philosophical background against which Plotinus's contribution can be assessed; a synopsis giving the main lines and the articulation of the argument; and a running commentary placing Plotinus's thought in its intellectual context and making evident the systematic association of its various parts with each other.

The Enneads by Plotinus is a work which is central to the history of philosophy in late antiquity. This volume is the first complete edition of the Enneads in English for over seventy-five years, and also includes Porphyry's Life of Plotinus. Led by Lloyd P. Gerson, a team of experts present up-to-date translations which are based on the best available text, the editio minor of Henry and Schwyzer and its corrections. The translations are consistent in their vocabulary, making the volume ideal for the study of Plotinus' philosophical arguments. They also offer extensive annotation to assist the reader, together with cross-references and citations which will enable users more easily to navigate the texts. This monumental edition will be invaluable for scholars of Plotinus with or without ancient Greek, as well as for students of the Platonic tradition.
