Plotinus, Self and the World by Raoul Mortley (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Plotinus, Self and the World by Raoul Mortley Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Examines the idea of the invention of the individual subjective self by Plotinus and its impact on the Christian tradition, asking about the self in its relationships - the self in love, in ignorance, in forgetfulness, in possession - and about the self and its own physical image. Publisher Description Plotinus, Self and the World addresses the question of the individual subject in its relationship with the world, the all. It traces the self through its experience of memory and forgetfulness, looks at whether the idea of the subconscious exists in Plotinus, and notes the probable impact of Plotinus thought on the development of the autobiography, in the form of Augustines Confessions. Augustine historicises the Plotinian individual self. The book reinterprets the idea of to oikeion in Plotinus and places great emphasis on the importance of the idea of having, and the ability to possess is itself linked to being: thus we are close to the idea of personal authenticity. Lastly the book examines Plotinus view of images and art, and notes his respect for the beauty of the human face. His positive view of the physical world is stressed. Author Biography Raoul Mortley is Professor and Dean in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Bond University, Queensland.
