eBook 정보

Theophastus is a Socratic dialogue about the nature, constitution, and procession of the human soul. It is framed as taking place between three men, discussing questions that were common to the school of late Neoplatonism. Aeneas of Gaza offers this conversation as being informed by his own orthodox Christian faith, and includes the importance in revelatory knowledge, in additional to the classical position of Greek logic. He is one of the earliest writers to incorporate both of these traditions and foreshadows the medieval scholastic movement by some six centuries.
