Filozofski i historijski kontekst i značaj arapskog Plotina: transformiranje Plotina u arapski i Porphyryjeve Eisagoge
The Philosophical and Historical Context and Signifi cance of Arabic Plotinus: the transformation of Plotinus into Arabic and the Eisagoge of Porphyry
Author(s): Nevad KahteranSubject(s): Philosophy
Published by: Akademija Nauka i Umjetnosti Bosne i Hercegovine
Summary/Abstract: This article is primarily concerned with the philosophy of Arabic Plotinus, not with Plotinus himself, in an attempt to avoid becoming embroiled in the many complex interpretative debates about the original Enneades. It also seeks to place these works in the context in which they originated: the circle of al-Kindī in ninth-century Baghdad, in the hope that it will increase our own understanding of both the philosophical and the historical context and signifi cance of the Arabic Plotinus, as well as the Eisagoge of Porphyry.
