Freedom and Responsibility in Neoplatonist Thought

ISBN: 9780198824831 出版年：2020 页码：301 Coope, Ursula Oxford University Press

Ursula Coope presents a ground-breaking study of the philosophy of the Neoplatonists (3rd-5th century CE). She explores their understanding of freedom and responsibility: an entity is free to the extent that it is wholly in control of itself, self-determining, self-constituting, and self-knowing - which only a non-bodily thing can be.
