Extractions: Proclus Proclus was reared at Xanthus in Lycia, and he studied philosophy under Olympiodorus the Elder at Alexandria. At Athens he studied under the Greek philosophers Plutarch and Syrianus, whom he followed as diadochos (Greek: "successor"), or head of the Academy founded by Plato c. 387 BC. Remaining there until his death, he helped refine and systematize the Neoplatonic views of the 3rd-century Greek philosopher Iamblichus, whose school stressed elaborate metaphysical speculation. Like Iamblichus, Proclus opposed Christianity and passionately defended paganism. As a Neoplatonic Idealist, he emphasized that thoughts comprise reality, while concrete "things" are mere appearances. Ultimate reality, the "One," is both God and the Good and unifies his ethical and theological systems. His attitudes significantly influenced subsequent Christian theology, in both East and West, through their adaptation by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite, a 5th-century writer whose forgeries were long thought to be works by a 1st-century convert of the Apostle Paul, Dionysius the Areopagite. The Elements is a concise exposition of Neoplatonic metaphysics in 211 propositions. His Elements of Physics distilled the essence of Aristotle's views, and his In Platonis theologiam (Platonic Theology) explicated Plato's metaphysics. His commentaries on Plato, extant in their entirety, include those on The Republic, Parmenides, Timaeus, and Alcibiades I.

Proclus on the Gods, prayer and perception. [64A to 79B] The divine Iamblichus however, does not think that a history of this kind pertains to what is here proposed to be considered. For Plato is not now speaking about atheistical men, but about such as are wise, and able to converse with the Gods. Nor does he speak of such as are dubious about the works of piety; but to such as wish to be saved by those who are the saviours of wholes, he delivers the power of prayer, and its admirable and supernatural perfection which transcends all expectation. But to this conversion prayer is of the greatest utility. For it attracts to itself the beneficence of the Gods, through those ineffable symbols which the father of souls has disseminated in them. It likewise unites those who pray with those to whom prayer is addressed; conjoins the intellect of the Gods with the words of those who pray; excites the will of those who perfectly comprehend good to the abundant communication of it; is the fabricator of divine persuasion; and establishes in the Gods all that we possess. Tim. "But, O Socrates, all such as participate but in the least degree of temperance, [i.e. wisdom] in the impulse to every undertaking, whether small or great, always invoke divinity."

E-mail Us Partial Edition and Study: Unlike all other texts in this survey which were translated directly from the Greek, the translation of PROCLUS produced in 1248 by the monk Simeon of Garni was made through the intermediary of a Georgian translation. Dashian published excerpts from the text and observed that it deviates considerably from the Greek original. This is not surprising, given the fact that the early twelfth-century Georgian translation by John Petritsi was itself not very literal to begin with. Even more curious is the fact that Simeons Armenian version was translated back into Georgian in 1757. Back to Repertory Index
Chapter 3. Proclus' Elements
selections from proclus' Elements of Theology, summarizing his argument for thesoul's indestructible and imperishable nature. Chapter 3 proclus' Elements.
http://mbdefault.org/3_elements/default.asp

Extractions: The Elements of Theology Elements may be the most orderly proof of immortality ever composed by a Hellenic philosopher. For readers who've not seen the text, it will be instructive at this time to study a few Elements which abstract Proclus' argument. This presentation will pass quickly to a critique. The critique brings Proclus' image of the soul into focus, as it disentangles the knot of his immortality argument. The text of Proclus' Elements consists of two hundred and eleven Neoplatonic propositions, organized by a method similar to that which mathematicians use in the construction of mathematical proofs. When a mathematician wants to prove a novel theorem, he uses in his proof theorems which have been proved before. Those axioms are foundational, in the sense that they are uncontroversial and accepted as authoritative by the mathematical community.

THE HOMILY WHICH PROKLOS, BISHOP OF CYZICUS, PRONOUNCED IN THE GREAT CHURCH OF CONSTANTINOPLE, WHEN NESTORIUS THE HERETIC WAS PRESENT, CONCERNING HIS CONTEMPTIBLE DOGMA, ON THE SUNDAY WHICH PRECEDED THE HOLY FORTY DAYS. Very great are the riches of the nourishment of the wisdom of the grace of God. Numberless are the benefits of the gathering together of spiritual beings. Honourable is the merchandise of the market of the Church. Joyful is the festival before the altar. Exceedingly splendid is the profit of the traffic with the Saviour. Indescribable are the ungrudged riches of the nails of the Saviour. Great is the pleasure of the gifts which appertain to the beings of heaven. This love knoweth not poverty, for it is Christ Who giveth this charity. And if thou wishest, O beloved, and wilt look into the Holy Scriptures, thou shalt have knowledge of the riches wich are immeasurable [and shall understand that] He giveth great gifts. For He wisheth to make thee to know this with careful exactness, and the forms and ways in which He doeth this are various. For from the beginning our Lord Jesus Christ hath not ceased to do good to the race of men. Having banished [Gen.3:24] the first [man], that is to say, Adam, to the place of one who hath been condemned to punishment, He took him and seated him with Him upon the throne in the heavens.

PROCLUS The emergence of an increasingly powerful hierarchy in the expanding Christian movement threatened the political, social and philosophical foundations of the ancient Mediterranean world. During the second, third and fourth centuries of this era, church hierarchy came to justify itself as a theocracy without universal or equal access to the Divine. The attendant doctrine of salvation supported the subordination of women in society and their exclusion from religious office, where once they had been the backbone of Roman civil institutions and guardians of its collective religious life. The Graeco-Roman philosophical traditions, which advocated freedom of thought on the basis of the equality of human beings as seekers of divine wisdom, felt the growing pressure of dogmatism based upon the assumed identity of the ecclesiastical structure with a spiritual hierarchy. The neo-Platonic movement founded by Ammonius Saccas, clearly articulated by Plotinus and disseminated by Porphyry, was tied to an understanding of the theurgic significance of classical myths and ceremonies and of the universal truths of the Mysteries. The emperor Julian attempted to refound the theology implied by the Mysteries, but his death in A.D. 363 after only three years' reign marked the end of all such attempts. Nevertheless, the Platonic Academies of Athens and Alexandria were inspired to new heights of philosophical activity by the neo-Platonists.

Extractions: (13-16 MAI 1998) EN L'HONNEUR DE H.D. SAFFREY ET L.G. WESTERINK Avec l'assistance de C. LUNA et A.F. METTRAUX Presses Universitaires de Louvain In his Platonic Theology, Proclus offers a systematic exposition of the theology of Plato. Integrating within the 'scienti-fic' framework of the Parmenides all the theological doctrines which are scattered throughout the Plato's dialogues, Proclus develops the Platonic doctrines on the One, the gods and the hierarchical procession of reality. The present volume, which celebrates the completion of the critical edition of Proclus' Platonic Theology by H.-D. Saffrey and L.G. Westerink (+), contains thirty-one contributions by leading scholars in the field of Neoplatonic studies. They present their views on the organisation and principles of Proclus' theology, on the hermeneutics of Platonic dialogues, on the antecedents of this theological synthesis, and on its posterity, from Proclus' immediate successors through the Byzantine, Arabic and Latin Middle Ages. This monumental volume, which is the result of three decades of dedicated scholarly research on the philosophy of Proclus, will stand for many years as an indispensable guide for all those interested in Neoplatonic studies.
