Porfírio (Commentários Tratado 4) – Da natureza da alma
—
in PorfírioVIDE Eneada-IV-II 15. (1) Every body is in a place; the incorporeal in itself is not in a place, any more than the things which have the same nature as it. 16. (1) The incorporeal in itself, by the mere fact of its being superior to every body and to every place, is present everywhere…

in PorfírioVIDE Eneada-VI-4 OF THE INCORPOREAL. 35. The incorporeal is that which is conceived of by abstraction of the body; that is the derivation of its name. To this genus, according to ancient sages, belong matter, sense-form, when conceived of apart from matter, natures, faculties, place, time, and surface. All these entities, indeed, are called incorporeal…

Enéada III, 6 – Sobre a impassibilidade dos incorporais
—
in Enéada-III-6Tal como os tratados 22 e 23, o tratado 26 poderia ter um título paradoxal: como é que aquilo que parece sofrer não sofre. Para Plotino, trata-se de retificar dois erros baseados nos nossos “hábitos de linguagem” (cap. 12, 29): o erro que nos leva a falar das “paixões da alma” e o erro, mais…

Tratado 26 (III, 6, 16-19) — ON THE IMPASSIVITY OF INCORPOREAL NATURES. (Thomas Taylor)
—
XVI. Moreover, a certain reason acceding and extending matter as far as it proceeds into it, causes it to be great, investing it from itself with greatness, which is not in matter. But matter does not through this become quantity ; for if it did, that which is great in it would be magnitude. If,…

Tratado 26 (III, 6, 6-15) — ON THE IMPASSIVITY OF INCORPOREAL NATURES. (Thomas Taylor)
—
VI. That the intelligible essence, indeed, the whole of which is arranged according to form, is necessarily impassive, has been already shown. Since, however, matter also is something incorporeal, though after another manner (than the intelligible,) concerning this likewise it must be considered after what manner it subsists; whether it is passive, as it is…

Tratado 26 (III, 6) — ON THE IMPASSIVITY OF INCORPOREAL NATURES. (Thomas Taylor)
—
I. If we should say that the senses are not passions, but energies and judgments about the passions, the passions indeed subsisting about something else, as for instance about a body affected in a certain manner, but judgment about the soul; judgment not being passion, for if it were, another judgment would again be necessary,…

in PorfírioOF THE INCORPOREAL. (3) VIDE Eneada-III-6 5. The name “incorporeal” does not designate one and the same genus, as does the word “body.” Incorporeal entities derive their name from the fact that they are conceived of by abstraction from the body. Consequently, some of them (like intelligence and discursive reason) are genuine beings, existing as…

VIDE Eneada-VI-5 THE INCORPOREAL BEING IS ENTIRE IN EVERYTHING. 40. Better to express the special nature of incorporeal existence the ancient philosophers, particularly Parmenides, do not content themselves with saying “it is one,” but they also add “and all,” just as a sense-object is a whole. But as this unity of the sense-object contains a…

asômata = incorpóreo, incorporal Foram os antigos estoicos que construíram ao redor deste termo uma verdadeira teoria filosófica dos incorporais (asômata). Antes deles, Platão utilizou o termo seja para caracterizar os Inteligíveis (Sofista 246b) ou as realidades mais belas e grandiosas (Político 286b), seja para designar a harmonia e o ordenamento entre as diversas partes…

Incorpóreo

Incorporeal entities derive their name from the fact that they are conceived of by abstraction from the body. Consequently, some of them (like intelligence and discursive reason) are genuine beings, existing as well without as within the body, subsisting by themselves, by themselves being actualizations and lives; other beings (such as matter, sense-form without matter,…
