| book description |

The first volume in a landmark commentary on an important and influential work of ancient philosophy This is the first volume of a groundbreaking commentary on one of the most important works of ancient philosophy, the Enneads of Plotinusâ€”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 Plotinusâ€™s studentâ€”the collector and arranger of the Enneadsâ€”introduces the philosopher and his work. A landmark contribution to modern Plotinus scholarship, Paul Kalligasâ€™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 Plotinusâ€™s contribution can be assessed; a synopsis giving the main lines and the articulation of the argument; and a running commentary placing Plotinusâ€™s thought in its intellectual context and making evident the systematic association of its various parts with each other.
