This volume makes available to the modern reader selected writings
of Thomas Taylor, the eighteenth-century English Platonist. TO
Taylor we are indebted for the first full translation into English
of Plato and Aristotle. Platonism, as Taylor saw it, was an
informing principle, transmitted through a "golden chain of
philosophers," a doctrine received by Socrates and Plato from the
Orphic and Pythagorean past and transmitted to the future. It
emerged again and again, enriched in the School of Alexandria, in
Renaissance art, in the works of Spenser, Shelley, Yeats. Kathleen
Raine is well known as a poet. GEorge Mills Harper is Professor of
English, University of Florida. Bollingen Series LXXXVIII.
Originally published in 1969. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the
latest print-on-demand technology to again make available
previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of
Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original
texts of these important books while presenting them in durable
paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy
Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage
found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University
Press since its founding in 1905.
