Ullmann: Mundo sensível
As sensações constituem a fonte mais comum de nossos erros. Eis o motivo apontado por Plotino: “Estamos acostumados, olhando as coisas daqui (deste mundo), a separar o pensante e o pensado” (En. V, 9, 5, 10). A não-identidade entre sujeito e objeto pode levar-nos a enganos. Porém, há mais. Plotino assevera que o mundo sensível…

Uzdavinys (2004-65-67) – duas ordens de realidade (ser e devir)

By shifting the emphasis from the…

IV. 4. 14 (Armstrong Selection and Translation from the Enneads) [The forms in body, which make bodily things what they are, are distinct from Nature, a kind of external irradiation or warming proceeding from it; they mark the very last stage in the evolution of reality.] As for the bodies which are said to be…

III. 8. 4 (Armstrong Selection and Translation from the Enneads) [The dream-like contemplation of Nature (the Lower Soul), which produces the material universe: all action springs from contemplation.] If anyone asked Nature why it makes, if it cared to hear and answer the questioner it would say, ‘ You ought not to ask, but to…

Soul in its Activity in the Sense-world (III)
II. 3. 17-18 (Armstrong Selection and Translation from the Enneads) [It is the lowest phase of soul which makes material things; this it does without conscious thought, receiving the forms which it imprints from Nous. Nous is thus the ultimate creative principle of the material universe, which is the last and lowest of existences, but…
