What is the meaning of Neoplatonism in philosophy?
Definition of Neoplatonism. 1 : Platonism modified in later antiquity to accord with Aristotelian, post-Aristotelian, and eastern conceptions that conceives of the world as an emanation from an ultimate indivisible being with whom the soul is capable of being reunited in trance or ecstasy.
What is Neoplatonism According to Plotinus?
Neoplatonism. Plotinus (c. 204-270 C.E.) is considered the first main proponent of Neoplatonism, and his intent was to use Plato’s thought as an intellectual basis for a rational and humane life. Neoplatonist ideas are more explicitly religious than those of Plato, and they developed largely to counter dualistic interpretations of Plato’s thought.
When did Neoplatonism start?
Neoplatonism started with Plotinus in the third century. Three distinct phases in classical neoplatonism after Plotinus can be distinguished: the work of his student Porphyry; that of Iamblichus and his school in Syria; and the period in the fifth and sixth centuries, when the Academies in Alexandria and Athens flourished.
What is the meaning of logos in Neoplatonism?
The term logos was interpreted variously in neoplatonism. Plotinus refers to Thales in interpreting logos as the principle of meditation, the interrelationship between the hypostases (Soul, Spirit (nous) and the ’One’). St. John introduces a relation between Logos and the Son, Christ, whereas Paul calls it ’Son’, ’Image’, and ’Form’.
