Description: Hermias: On Plato Phaedrus 227A245E by Michael Share, Dirk Baltzly Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This commentary records, through notes taken by Hermias, Syrianus seminar on Platos Phaedrus, one of the worlds most influential celebrations of erotic beauty and love. It is the only Neoplatonic commentary on Platos Phaedrus to have survived in its entirety. Further interest comes from the recorded interventions by Syrianus pupils - including those by Proclus, his eventual successor as head of the Athenian school, who went on to teach Hermias father, Ammonius.The first of two volumes of Hermias commentary, the chapters translated here discuss the argument that the soul can be proved immortal as being the self-moving source of eternal motion. Aristotle explicitly disagreed with Plato on this treatment of the soul and Syrianus, having previously (in a commentary on the Metaphysics) criticised Aristotle severely when he disagreed with Plato, feels obliged here, too, to address the apparent disagreement. This new translation is thus vital for understanding Syrianus attitude to Aristotle.
