About this book

Ennead VI.4 and VI.5 were originally written as a single treatise. Together they hold Plotinus's most general and sustained account of how the intelligible and sensible realms relate, and they take up two central questions in Platonism: how soul and body are related, and what participation means.

A central puzzle is how a soul could give life to bodies without itself taking on their spatial extent. This volume offers a translation with an introduction and commentary, prepared by Eyjólfur K. Emilsson and Steven K. Strange.
