Neoplatonism
Neoplatonism is a modern term used to designate the period of Platonic philosophy beginning with the work of Plotinus Gnosticism and the Hermetic tradition. A major factor in this syncretism, and one which had an immense influence on the development of Platonic thought, was the introduction of the Jewish Scriptures into Greek intellectual circles via the translation known as the Septuagint Timaeus Enneads

    Plotinus , is responsible for the grand synthesis of progressive Christian and Gnostic ideas with the traditional Platonic philosophy. He answered the challenge of accounting for the emergence of a seemingly inferior and flawed cosmos from the perfect mind of the divinity by declaring outright that all objective existence is but the external self-expression of an inherently contemplative deity known as the One ( to hen ), or the Good (

    This article is about Proclus Diadochus, the Neoplatonist philosopher. For other uses of the term, see Proclus (disambiguation).
    Proclus Lycaeus (February 8, 412 - April 17, 485), surnamed "The Successor" or " diadochos " (Greek Πρόκλος ὁ Διάδοχος Próklos ho Diádokhos ), was the last major Greek Neoplatonist philosopher . His systematized and refined the cosmologies of Plotinus and Iamblichus , and produced one of the most elaborate, complex, and fully developed Neoplatonic systems. His careful documentation of early Greek mathematicians in his commentary on Euclid ’s Elements of Geometry is a valuable historical source. Proclus’ greatest concern was the elevation of the human soul to unity with its divine origins. Believing that reason could dominate the physical passions but was incapable of grasping higher levels of spiritual knowledge, he promoted theurgy, the use of material objects and mathematical symbols in religious rites intended to awaken the soul to its own divinity. His works influenced later Christian (Greek and Latin), Islamic , and Jewish thought. His ideas were adapted by

    Gawain and the Tree
      Mechtild of Hackeborn, who rolled in broken glass, saw a vision of the celebrating priest in which his vestments were covered with every blade and twig, every hair and scale, of the flora and fauna of the universe. As she looked in surprise, she saw that the smallest details of creation are reflected in the holy Trinity by means of the humanity of Christ, because it is from the same earth that produced them that Christ drew his humanity.

Perhaps the connection is less obvious with Gawain . It must be realized that this story contains multi-leveled metaphors which approach modern literature in their complexity. Argument will be made that Gawain betrays an isomorphism with Eden's tale. The author's attitude toward the fruit and perhaps toward fasting will become evident. Bynum's incisive argument has been extremely helpful in this analysis of

    Proclus
    From LoveToKnow 1911
    PROCLUS, or Proculus (A.D. 410-485), the chief representative of the later Neoplatonists, was born at Constantinople , but xxl1.14 brought up at Xanthus in Lycia . Having studied grammar under Orion and philosophy under Olympiodorus the Peripatetic, at Alexandria , he proceeded to Athens . There he attended the lectures of the Neoplatonists Plutarch and Syrianus , and about 450 succeeded the latter in the chair of philosophy (hence his surname Diadochus, which, however, is referred by others to his being the "successor" of Plato ). As an ardent upholder of the old pagan religion Proclus incurred the hatred of the Christians, and was obliged to take refuge in Asia Minor . After a year's absence he returned to Athens, where he remained until his death. His epitaph , written by himself, is to be found in Anthologia palatina, vii. 451. Although possessed of ample means, Proclus led a most temperate, even ascetic life, and employed his wealth in generous relief of the poor. He was supposed to hold communion with the gods, who endowed him with miraculous powers. He acted up to his famous saying that "the philosopher should be the hierophant of the whole world" by celebrating Egyptian and Chaldaean as well as Greek festivals, and on certain days performing sacred rites in honour of all the dead. His great literary activity was chiefly devoted to the elucidation of the writings of Plato. There are still extant commentaries on the

    Proclus 's father, Particius, and his mother, Marcella, were citizens of high social position in Lycia. Particius was a senior law official in the courts at Byzantium. Proclus was brought up at Xanthus, on the south coast of Lycia, where he attended school. It was intended that Proclus should follow his father and enter the legal profession. With this aim in mind he was sent to Alexandria but, while in the middle of his studies, he visited Byzantium and he became convinced that his calling in life was the study of philosophy. He returned to Alexandria where now he studied philosophy under Olympiodorus the Elder, in particular making a deep study of the works of Aristotle . He also learnt mathematics in Alexandria and in this subject his teacher was Heron (not the famous mathematician, Heron was a common name at this time). Proclus was not entirely satisfied with the education he was receiving in philosophy in Alexandria so, while still a teenager, he moved from Alexandria to Athens where he studied at

    5. Proclus: 410-485 A.D.
    Proclus was trained at Alexandria and then moved to Athens, where he devoted himself to Neo-Platonic philosophy, and became the head of that school:
      Though he esteemed mathematics highly, it was only as a handmaid to philosophy. He quotes Plato's opinion to the effect that "mathematics, as making use of hypotheses, falls short of the non-hypothetical and perfect science." And again, while "mathematical science must be considered desirable in itself, though not with reference to the needs of daily life, if it is necessary to refer the benefit arising from it to something else, we must connect that benefit with intellectual knowledge, to which it leads the way and is a propaedeutic, clearing the eye of the soul and taking away the impediments which the senses place in the way of the knowledge of universals." We know that in the Neo-Platonic school the younger pupils learnt mathematics; and it is clear that Proclus taught this subject, and that this was the origin of the commentary.
