Description: Proclus: Commentary on Plato's Timaeus, Part 2, Proclus on the World Soul by Proclus, Dirk Baltzly Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In this volume of Proclus Commentary on Platos Timaeus, Proclus describes the creation of the soul that animates the entire universe, and addresses a range of issues in Pythagorean harmonic theory. The volume includes a substantial introduction and helpful notes. Publisher Description In the present volume Proclus describes the creation of the soul that animates the entire universe. This is not a literal creation, for Proclus argues that Plato means only to convey the eternal dependence of the World Soul upon higher causes. In his exegesis of Platos text, Proclus addresses a range of issues in Pythagorean harmonic theory, as well as questions about the way in which the World Soul knows both forms and the visible reality that comprises its body. This part of Proclus Commentary is particularly responsive to the interpretive tradition that precedes it. As a result, this volume is especially significant for the study of the Platonic tradition from the earliest commentators onwards.

He was educated at Ohio State University and has worked previously at Kings College London and Monash University, Victoria.
