Neoplatonism
Neoplatonism is the modern name for the Platonic philosophy that began with Plotinus in the third century CE.
Established Plotinus (c. 204/5–270 CE) taught in Rome. His pupil Porphyry edited his treatises into six groups of nine, the Enneads. Plotinus described reality as flowing from the One through Intellect and Soul.[1][2] Established The label "Neoplatonism" was coined by modern historians; Plotinus and his successors saw themselves simply as Platonists.[3] Established Later Neoplatonists include Porphyry, Iamblichus and Proclus. Their ideas shaped Christian, Jewish and Islamic thought and the Renaissance revival led by Ficino.[4]
