    Extractions: Ga naar: navigatie zoeken Afbeelding:Plotinus.jpg Buste van Plotinos in de Vaticaanse musea in Rome Plotinus was een Grieks filosoof afkomstig uit Egypte , die leefde van 204/5 tot 270 n. Chr. In 244 vestigde hij zich als docent te Rome, waar hij gauw een grote aanhang verwierf. Onder zijn gehoor bevonden zich talrijke senatoren. Keizer Gallienus gaf hem de toestemming om bij wijze van experiment een stad te stichten die volgens de " Wetten " van Plato zou bestuurd worden. Het experiment werd echter verijdeld door tegenwerking van Gallienus' hovelingen. Het van hem overgeleverde werk is tot ons gekomen onder de titel 'Enneaden', wat duidt op de indeling van 6 maal negen ('ennea') essays, waarin zijn leerling Porphyrius zijn werk, soms wat arbitrair, heeft opgesplitst. Plotinus heeft de ambitie het werk van Plato te verklaren, en pretendeert niet een nieuwe filosofie te brengen. Maar voor ons staat hij mijlenver van Plato af, en de manier waarop hij zijn Plato-citaten ter adstructie bijeenraapt maakt op ons een wat onsamenhangende indruk. Reden waarom wij hem tegenwoordig tot het Neoplatonisme rekenen, een filosofische stroming die, anders dan de naam suggereert, gebruik maakt ook van het werk van andere filosofen dan Plato. Plotinus geldt als de belangrijkste vertegenwoordiger van dit Neoplatonisme.

    Extractions: It is a common fact that the impact of the philosophy of Plotinus (204/5 - 270) on the Eastern and Western philosophy as well as to the Christian theology has been immense. Considering that it seems paradoxical that the philosophy of Plotinus has been undertaken systematically and perhaps even comprehensive in the last 20 years only. During this short period of time more research papers have been written about him than during the whole one and a half millennium following his death. The flow broke loose after the final completion of the new text-critical 3-volumed issue of Plotinus' Enneads by Paul Henry and Hans-Rudolph Schwyzer (1973) , which is "undoubtedly the most important contribution to Plotinian scholarship since Porphyry published the Enneads and which has been called with a certain specific hauteur the first scientific edition of Plotinus' works . The Lexicon Plotinianum compiled by John Sleeman and Gilbert Pollet has contributed to the study of Plotinus likewise. All 54 treatises of Plotinus have not attracted equal attention. Some treatises have been constantly reissued with new comments attached, and quite frequently two separate commentaries are issued concurrently. At the same time, there are a small number of treatises that have attracted little or no attention at all, not to mention the republications with comments

    Extractions: P LOTINUS AMMONIUS Saccas, like many other great Teachers, never committed anything to writing. Following the custom of the ancient Hierophants, he transmitted his teachings orally, and bound his pupils by an oath not to divulge his most profound doctrines except to those who could be trusted not to disclose or misuse them. After the death of Ammonius, the work of recording the Neoplatonic teachings was taken up by his pupil Plotinus, and it is to him that we owe most of our knowledge of that system. Plotinus was an Egyptian by birth, and a native of Lycopolis. The Keynote of Plotinus' whole nature is summed up in the word impersonality. He was so resolved to keep his personality in the background that he refused to tell the place of his birth or the names of his parents. When he was asked to have his portrait painted he replied: "Is it not enough to have to carry around this image? Must I transmit the image of this image as worthy of attention?" Nothing is known of the early years of Plotinus' life. We meet him for the first time in Alexandria when he was twenty-eight years old. At that time he was devoting himself to the study of philosophy, and was seeking among the different schools for a system which would satisfy him. Having failed in his search, he met a friend one day and told him of his predicament. His friend advised him to visit the school of Ammonius Saccas. As soon as Plotinus heard Ammonius speak he cried: "This is the man I have been seeking!" And from that day on he attended Ammonius' classes, remaining with him for eleven years.

    plotinus, I, Porphyry on the Life of plotinus. Ennead 1 by plotinus, published by Harvard University Press.  
    http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog/L440.html
    
    Extractions: Plotinus (204/5-270 CE ) was the first and greatest of Neoplatonic philosophers. His writings were edited by his disciple Porphyry, who published them many years after his master's death in six sets of nine treatises each (the Enneads). Plotinus regarded Plato as his master, and his own philosophy is a profoundly original development of the Platonism of the first two centuries of the Christian era and the closely related thought of the Neopythagoreans, with some influences from Aristotle and his followers and the Stoics, whose writings he knew well but used critically. He is a unique combination of mystic and Hellenic rationalist. His thought dominated later Greek philosophy and influenced both Christians and Moslems, and is still alive today because of its union of rationality and intense religious experience. In his acclaimed edition of Plotinus, Armstrong provides excellent introductions to each treatise. His invaluable notes explain obscure passages and give reference to parallels in Plotinus and others. Plotinus, II, Ennead 2

    Extractions: Alexandrine.Schniewind@unifr.ch ABSTRACT: Who is the Plotinian spoudaios and what is his function in the Enneads ? This question turns out to be fundamental, especially when trying to make out an ethical dimension in Plotinus. Treatise I 4 [46] offers, concerning that question, not only the longest sustained discussion of the spoudaios , but also shows how highly problematic it is to figure out more precisely his characteristics. This is due to the terminological ambiguity with the term sophos , which is also the reason why the two terms are often considered synonymous by translators. It appears in I 4 that this ambiguity is closely related to the question of aisthesis . And this is also perhaps the main problematic point concerning the spoudaios status questionis Who is the plotinian spoudaios and what is his function in the Enneads ? This question occurs especially in regard to treatise I 4 [46] which offers the longest sustained discussion of the spoudaios The main problem which presents itself as regards the term spoudaios is its apparent terminological similarity with sophos . As most translations show, both terms seem to be taken as almost synonymous, the most problematic one being Bréhier's French translation of the

    Extractions: Greeek Philosopher Plotinus studied philosophy in Alexandria, Egypt. He then joined a military campaign against Persia, in the hope of learning Persian and Indian philosophy. Around 244 he went to Rome at a time when Christian churches competed with Oriental religions. Plotinus, under the influence of these events, developed his own philosophic ideas. He believed that man should reject material things and should purify his soul and to lift it up to a communion with a higher spirit. Plotinus became the founder of the Neo-platonic school of philosophy, which became the most formidable rival of Christianity in the ancient world. www link :

    plotinus, the celebrated mystic, comes nearest in his views to the Vedanta philosophy, and is practically in full agreement with the Eastern sages,  
    http://www.swami-krishnananda.org/com/com_plot.html
    
    Extractions: The Divine Life Society - Sivananda Ashram, Rishikesh, India PLOTINUS This is nothing short of the Advaita Vedanta of Shankara. Only the view that the world is an overflow of the Perfection of God is peculiar to Plotinus. For, to the Vedanta, there is no such overflow; there is, to it, only the Absolute, and the world is its appearance; not an emanation from or an overflow of its being. This is the position, in spite of the acceptance of a relativistic creation of the Universe from the Absolute, as adumbrated in the Upanishads. For Plotinus the world is neither the creation of God nor an evolute from Him, but just an emanation. Plotinus, no doubt, takes care to see that this emanation does not in any way affect the Perfection of God. Plotinus is not advocating the parinamavada or the transformation theory of some of the Indian schools. God does not become the world by modification or transformation of Himself. He is ever what He is and the emanation is something like that of light from the sun. God never gets lost or exhausted in the world. Plotinus is thus free from the charge of propounding a pantheism. God is both transcendent and immanent. The world originates, subsists and finally merges in God. The Thought of God and the Object of this Thought are one and the same, and the world is God's Thought. God's Thought is merely the activity of His own being; it is the immediate, instantaneous, all-comprehending Essence of pure Consciousness, direct and intuitive, knowing everything at one stroke, and transcending the dualistic categories of relative reason, which functions through a succession of ideas.

    http://www.alcott.net/alcott/home/champions/Plotinus.html
    
    Extractions: Plotinus is generally considered the founder of the Neoplatonic school of philosophy, though his philosophical system built upon those of his predecessors, Numenius and Ammonius Saccas . Many of his sayings were recorded by Amelius . For the New England Transcendentalists, Plotinus provided intriguing mystical ideas such as the doctrine of the One, the source from which all goodness, truth, and beauty flows. Through this divine "emanation" the universe remains intrinsically positive: Plotinus, like Ralph Waldo Emerson , held that evil is not real but merely privativea failure of the soul to harness the good that is immanently present in the universe and available to all. Plotinus felt that only a faculty superior to both sense and reason, that is, a mystical intuition founded on the personality of the soul, could truly apprehend the infinite. These ideas formed the basis of transcendental concepts such as Emerson's Over-Soul, Amos Bronson Alcott 's theory of Genesis, the possibility of ecstatic union with God, and the perfectibility of humanity through developmental stages.
