Julian tells the story of the transformation of a reclusive and scholarly adolescent into a successful general and an audacious social reformer. The author traces the sequence of the Emperor Julian's responses to inner and outward challenges and dwells on the tensions and conflicts that each new choice created for him. Julian knew how to cope both with success and with those misfortunes for which he was not personally responsible, but he was not able to face failure. The shock of realizing a few months before his premature death that as a statesman he had indeed failed caused him to withdraw into a private world of visions and illusions, and rendered him incapable of sustaining any longer his contact with reality.…

broché. Condición: Neuf. Au IIe siècle de notre ère, un courant spirituel qui se réclame de Platon commence son ascension vertigineuse dans l'Empire romain. Dissociant leur fondateur divinisé de sa descendance sceptique et le rattachant à Pythagore, les adeptes de Platon voient dans sa philosophie une voie de salut qu'ils ne cessent de réinterpréter selon les normes d'une orthodoxie qui évolue avec le temps. Prisonniers de leur temps, les « néoplatoniciens » pensent et agissent selon les mêmes catégories mentales que leurs contemporains chrétiens, comme ne le prouve que trop l'analyse de l'uvre de Numénius, Plotin, Jamblique et Damascius entreprise dans ce livre. En se servant de la notion d'osmose comme grille de lecture (terme qui rend de façon appropriée l'interaction subtile et continuelle entre l'homme et son milieu) l'auteur arrive à pleinement intégrer ces quatre penseurs originaux dans leur société, tout en explorant les voies par lesquelles du iie au vie s. le platonisme devient une religion du livre, au service d'une communauté textuelle qui érige les Oracles chaldaïques en écriture révélée. Spécialiste internationalement reconnue du platonisme, Polymnia Athanassiadi est professeur d'histoire ancienne à l'Université d'Athènes. En français, L'Âne d'or 288 pages 15 x 21,5.…

Soft cover. Condición: Fine. Excellent paperback condition. Tight and Clean pages. No scratches or scuffs. NO fading or discoloration. In this book distinguished experts from a range of disciplines (Orientalists, philologists, philosophers, theologians and historians) address a central problem which lies at the heart of the religious and philosophical debate of late antiquity. Paganism was not a unified tradition and consequently the papers cover a wide social and intellectual spectrum. Particular emphasis is given to several aspects of the topic: first, monotheistic belief in late antique philosophical ideals and its roots in classical antiquity and the Near East; second, monistic Gnosticism; third, the revelatory tradition as expressed in oracular literature; and finally, the monotheistic trend in popular religion.…
