Aristotle and Plotinus on the Intellect

Monism and Dualism Revisited

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The scope of this book is to revisit the ancient Aristotelian and Plotinian philosophical and metaphysical problem of dualism and monism with respect to the first principle. Essentially, it defends Aristotle's position of the primacy of an intelligible first principle over the Plotinian philosophical move to affirm a principle above Intellect.
