This volume investigates Proclus' own thought and his wide-ranging
influence within late Neoplatonic, Alexandrine and Byzantinian
philosophy and theology. It further explores how Procline
metaphysics and doctrines of causality influence and transition
into Arabic and Islamic thought, up until Richard Hooker in
England, Spinoza in Holland and Pico in Italy. John Dillon provides
a helpful overview of Proclus' thought, Harold Tarrant discusses
Proclus' influence within Alexandrian philosophy and Tzvi
Langermann presents ground breaking work on the Jewish reception of
Proclus, focusing on the work of Joseph Solomon Delmedigo
(1591-1655), while Stephen Gersh presents a comprehensive synopsis
of Proclus' reception throughout Christendom. The volume also
presents works from notable scholars like Helen Lang, Sarah Wear
and Crystal Addey and has a considerable strength in its
presentation of Pseudo-Dionysius, Proclus' transmission and
development in Arabic philosophy and the problem of the eternity of
the world. It will be important for anyone interested in the
development and transition of ideas from the late ancient world
onwards.
