Ennead V (Loeb Classical Library, Volume 444)
Plotinus (204/5-270 CE) was once the 1st and maximum of Neoplatonic philosophers. His writings have been edited by way of his disciple Porphyry, who released them decades after his master's dying in six units of 9 treatises every one (the Enneads).
Plotinus looked Plato as his grasp, and his personal philosophy is a profoundly unique improvement of the Platonism of the 1st centuries of the Christian period and the heavily comparable considered the Neopythagoreans, with a few impacts from Aristotle and his fans and the Stoics, whose writings he knew good yet used seriously. he's a special mixture of mystic and Hellenic rationalist. His inspiration ruled later Greek philosophy and motivated either Christians and Moslems, and remains to be alive at the present time as a result of its union of rationality and severe non secular adventure.
In his acclaimed version of Plotinus, Armstrong offers first-class introductions to every treatise. His useful notes clarify vague passages and provides connection with parallels in Plotinus and others.
Dans cette autobiographie spirituelle, achevée en 1562, Thérèse d'Avila montre los angeles valeur providentielle de ce qui lui arrive (son entrée au couvent, los angeles grave maladie qui l. a. frappe, ses visions, enfin sa réforme du Carmel). Consciente des contraintes de los angeles vie matérielle, elle a voulu que ses newcomers sachent lire et écrire, afin d'accueillir des femmes d'esprit, capables de résister à los angeles tentation d'un mysticisme de pacotille.

J • PART II: THE DEVELOPMENT OF MYSTICISM DURING SCHELLING'S FIRST PERIOD I. Ethical Mysticism' 1. Absolute and Actual Identity Schelling's earliest writings are attempts to elucidate different aspects of Fichte's philosophy and to defend it against the Kantians. His standpoint corresponds essentially with that of [Fichte's] Science of K1WWledge, vi although increasingly new directions emerge. He is primarily concerned with developing the principles of the critical philosophy by means of the concept of freedom.
P. ). , prop. XVII). ;,. dom, which expresses tbe possibility even to be something ~lse. onomy, or material freedom, or identity, stands m oppositiOn to formal freedom, to the basis of the possibility of contradiction. Kant transfers formal freedom to transcendence: there man has. decided for or ~gainst reason. Thus it is possible to explam the bad conso_ence _and repentence of sins long past_and ~vercome. In his ph1losophy of religion, in connection With the doctrine of radical evil, he asserts that all m~n have decided against reason: it is the sharpest fommlallon of tbe principle of contradiction.
The unconditioned, ''the ultimate ground of all reality, is something that can be thought only through itself, that is, through its being, which, in short, is thought only so far as it coincides with the principle of being and thought" (1:163).
