This volume of Proclus' commentary on Plato's Timaeus records
Proclus' exegesis of Timaeus 27a 31b, in which Plato first
discusses preliminary matters that precede his account of the
creation of the universe, and then moves to the account of the
creation of the universe as a totality. For Proclus this text is a
grand opportunity to reflect on the nature of causation as it
relates to the physical reality of our cosmos. The commentary deals
with many subjects that have been of central interest to
philosophers from Plato's time onwards, such as the question
whether the cosmos was created in time, and the nature of evil as
it relates to physical reality and its ontological imperfection.
