Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The collection features nineteen philosophical letters by Iamblichus, the only surviving Platonist philosopher from antiquity. These letters, newly translated into English, explore a range of topics including providence, fate, and the cardinal virtues, while addressing both students and influential figures in Syrian society. They reflect the moral concerns of the time and highlight the public dimensions of Iamblichus's thought. This volume serves as a valuable resource for those studying late antiquity, Neoplatonism, and early Christianity.
