Plotinus on Intellect

Plotinus on IntellectBy Eyjolfur Kjalar Emilsson

Publisher:Oxford University Press, USA| ISBN: 019928170X | edition 2007 | PDF | 240 pages | 1,4 mb

Emilsson's in-depth study focuses on Plotinus' notion of Intellect, which comes second in his hierarchical model of reality, after the One, unknowable first cause of everything. As opposed to ordinary human discursive thinking, Intellect's thought is all-at-once, timeless, truthful and a direct intuition into 'things themselves'; it is presumably not even propositional. Emilsson discusses and explains this strong notion of non-discursive thought and explores Plotinus' insistence that this must be the primary form of thought.
