Plotinus stands at a crossroads in ancient philosophy, between the
more than 600 years of philosophy that came before him and the new
Platonic tradition. He was the first and perhaps the greatest
systematizer of Plato's thought, and all later students of Plato in
the following centuries approached Plato through him. This
Companion from a new generation of ancient philosophy scholars
reflects the current state of research on Plotinus, with chapters
on topics including mathematics, fate and determinism, happiness,
the theory of forms, categories of reality, matter and evil, and
Plotinus' legacy. The volume offers an accessible overview of the
thought of one of the pivotal figures in the history of philosophy,
and reveals his importance as a thinker whose impact goes far
beyond his importance as an interpreter of Plato.
