Descripción de contraportada
"This work will be indispensable for specialists in the history of Platonism and Aristotelianism in general, and Middle and Neoplatonism in particular. It will be equally indispensable for all scholars who work in Medieval Christian, Islamic, and Jewish philosophy, Italian Renaissance thought, and theories of cosmology."--David Winston, Graduate Theological Union
"This work makes available for the first time in English the treatise of Proclus on the Eternity of the World (which he presents in the form of a series of distinct arguments), and provides excellent annotations showing the provenance of these arguments, and their connection with other passages in Proclus, as well as an introduction providing the background to the controversy, which is a basic issue in dispute between Hellenic philosophy and Christianity."--John Dillon, Trinity College Dublin
"In this superb annotated translation, Helen Lang and A.D. Macro achieve clarity of meaning along with meticulous fidelity to Proclus's prose. Proclus's arguments for eternity of the cosmos influenced Islamic civilization, the medieval Latin West, and the Italian Renaissance. And Phiopontus's refutation of Proclus in his De Aeternitate Mundi contra Proclum became a model for the later Christian rejection of Greek thought. This is a rich harvest of late antique thought vital for understanding the hisory of philosophy and theology in the West."--Joel L. Kraemer, John Henry Barrows Professor, The Divinity School, University of Chicago
