Sinopsis

Plotinus: A Visionary Recital is a reconstruction of the life of Plotinus, based on a close study of the Enneads. &ldquo,Our time,&rdquo, wrote Kathleen Raine, &ldquo,presents us with problems closely parallel to the times of Plotinus, who was something far other, and far more, than a philosopher in the diminished modern sense of the term. He was a true &lsquo,lover of wisdom&rsquo,&mdash,of the spiritual knowledge that has been virtually forgotten in the secular world of the modern West.&rdquo,Mary Casey&rsquo,s book is a vivid evocation of the Mediterranean world of the third century, mediated through a finely-tempered prose that reflects a unique personal vision. It is an inner journey through the mind of a poet to the heart of timeless truth.
