This is the first book to provide an account of the influence of
Proclus, a member of the Athenian Neoplatonic School, during more
than one thousand years of European history (c.500-1600). Proclus
was the most important philosopher of late antiquity, a dominant
(albeit controversial) voice in Byzantine thought, the second most
influential Greek philosopher in the later western Middle Ages
(after Aristotle), and a major figure (together with Plotinus) in
the revival of Greek philosophy in the Renaissance. Proclus was
also intensively studied in the Islamic world of the Middle Ages
and was a major influence on the thought of medieval Georgia. The
volume begins with a substantial essay by the editor summarizing
the entire history of Proclus' reception. This is followed by the
essays of more than a dozen of the world's leading authorities in
the various specific areas covered.
