Excerpt from Das Problem der Theodizee im Neuplatonismus: Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultät der Universität Leipzig
Das im Neuplatonismus herrschende theozentrische Motiv ist der klassischen Philosophie der Griechen durchaus fremd. Dasselbe kann nur auf dem Boden eines idealistischen Monismus erwachsen, wie er dem Hellenismus gleichfalls fremd ist.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a systematic philosophical inquiry into the nature of evil from the perspective of the ancient Greek philosopher Plotinus. Specifically, it explores the compatibility of evil's existence within the framework of Plotinus' metaphysical system, which posits that reality emanates from a transcendent One. The author examines how the problem of evil is addressed by the theory of emanation, which holds that the material world is created by the One through a series of intermediary divine entities. In exploring Plotinus' theodicy, the book delves into his view of the hierarchical structure of reality, where the material world is considered a lesser form of being compared to the higher realm of the intelligible world. The book argues that evil, as Plotinus defines it, is not an inherent quality of the material world, but rather a negative or privative aspect that arises from the material world's distance from the transcendent One. The author also examines Plotinus' concept of human freedom and responsibility, and how these concepts relate to the problem of evil. The book argues that Plotinus' theodicy emphasizes the individual's ability to transcend the limitations of the material world and achieve a state of unity with the One, thereby overcoming the influence of evil. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of Plotinus' theodicy, shedding light on the ancient philosophical understanding of evil and its implications for human existence and morality. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students interested in ancient philosophy, the history of religious thought, and the philosophical exploration of the nature of evil.
