Compare Neoplatonic Saints by Mark Edwards, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

These two texts are fundamental for the understanding not only of Neoplatonism but also of the conventions of biography in late antiquity. Neither has received such extensive annotation before in English, and this new commentary makes full use of recent scholarship. The long introduction isintended both as a beginner's guide to Neoplatonism and as a survey of ancient biographical writing. | Neoplatonic Saints by Mark Edwards, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
