Tratado 11 (V, 2) — On the generation and order of things after the first. (Thomas Taylor)
—
I. The one is all things, and yet no one of all. For the principle of all is not all things; hut the one is all, because all things run as it were into it, or rather do not as yet exist, but will be. How, therefore, (does multitude proceed) from the one which is…

Tratado 49 (V, 3, 5-10) — OF GNOSTIC HYPOSTASES, AND THAT WHICH IS BEYOND THEM. (Thomas Taylor)
—
V. Does intellect, therefore, by one part of itself behold another part? In this case, however, one part will be that which sees, but another, that which is seen. And this is not for the same thing to see itself. What then ? If the whole is a thing of such a kind as to…

Tratado 49 (V, 3) — OF GNOSTIC HYPOSTASES, AND THAT WHICH IS BEYOND THEM. (Thomas Taylor)
—
I. Is it therefore necessary, that intellect should be in itself various, in order that by one of the things contained in itself, having surveyed the rest, it may be thus said to understand itself, as if it would not be able to be converted to, and have an intellectual perception of itself, if it…

República I 350c-354c: A noção do justo
—
in República ITrasímaco convino en todo esto, aunque no con tanta facilidad como yo lo refiero, pues le arranqué estas confesiones con un trabajo infinito. Sudaba en grande, con tanto más motivo cuanto que era verano, y entonces vi que por primera vez Trasímaco se ruborizaba. Pero cuando estuvimos de acuerdo en que la justicia es virtud…

Tratado 24 (V, 6) — That the nature which is beyond being is not intellective; and what that is which is primarily, and also that which is secondarily, intellective. (Thomas Taylor)
—
I. One kind of intelligence is the intellectual perception of another thing, but another is the perception of a thing by itself, or when a thing perceives itself; the latter of which flies in a greater degree from duplicity, or doubleness in intellection. But the former wishes also to avoid this diversity, but is less…

Tratado 33 (II, 9, 15-18) — AGAINST THE GNOSTICS. (Thomas Taylor)
—
XV. What these assertions, however, effect in the souls of those that hear them, persuading them to despise the world, and the things that are in it, ought not by any means to be concealed from us. For there are two sects of philosophers with respect to the attainment of the end of life, one…

—Basta lo dicho sobre los discursos, y pasemos a la dicción. De esta manera habremos tratado a fondo lo que debe ser materia de los discursos y la forma que conviene darle. —No entiendo eso que dices —replicó Adimanto. —Pues hay que entenderlo —respondí—.

República III 398b-403c — A cultura pela música
—
—Pues bien, me parece, mi querido amigo —continué—, que hemos tratado a fondo esta parte de la música que corresponde a los discursos y a las fábulas, puesto que hemos hablado de lo que hay que decir y de la forma de decirlo. —Soy de tu parecer yo también —dijo. —Nos resta hablar —proseguí— de…

Tratado 31 (V, 8) — Sobre a beleza inteligível (Thomas Taylor)
—
The following beautiful extract from the treatise of Plotinus, ” On intelligible beauty,” is a specimen of his manner of surveying all things, as subsisting without specific distinction in one supreme intellect. The whole of the extract likewise is the result of noera epibole, or intuition through the projecting energies of intellect. “All the Gods…

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…

Thomas Taylor, o renomado platonista do século XIX, fez um breve estudo sobre o sentido filosófico do termo bios em Platão. Começando por uma citação de Proclo, assim se define bios na antiguidade grega: “A vida significada pela palavra bios é mais adaptada à alma. Pois se a qualquer tempo esta palavra é usada em…
