Focusing on the translation of Plotinus' Enneads, this work represents a crucial link between late ancient Platonism and the Islamic intellectual tradition. Created in the 9th century CE by al-Kind's circle, it mistakenly attributed to Aristotle, it became pivotal in disseminating Neoplatonism to Islamic scholars. Influential thinkers like al-Farabi and Avicenna engaged with the text, exploring the connections between Platonism and Aristotelianism, while later Persian scholars continued its legacy.
