The Teachings of Syrianus on Plato's Timaeus and Parmenides

4.9/5 (33426 ratings)

Description:Although it has long been established that Syrianus, the teacher of Proclus, was the source of much of his student's metaphysics, it is not known precisely what in Proclus' thought can be attributed to Syrianus. The problem is compounded by the fact that Syrianus wrote very little and there is uncertainty as to whether written commentaries ever existed of his teaching on Plato's "Timaeus" and "Parmenides," the most important sources for Platonic metaphysics. This work attempts to re-construct the major tenets of Syrianus' philosophical teachings on the "Timaeus" and "Parmenides" based on the testimonia of Proclus, as found in Proclus' commentaries on Plato's "Timaeus" and "Parmenides" and, Damascius, as reported in his "On First Principles" and commentary on Plato's "Parmenides."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
