"Plotinos: Complete Works, v. 1" by Plotinus is a philosophical collection written in the early 20th century. The work compiles the teachings of the influential Neoplatonist philosopher Plotinus, along with biographies and commentaries from his contemporaries, including Porphyry. The content primarily explores metaphysical concepts, such as the nature of existence, beauty, and the divine, aiming to provide insights into the origins of philosophy. At the start of the volume, the author introduces the complex life and philosophical journey of Plotinus, emphasizing his commitment to oral teaching before later documenting his thoughts. Plotinus is depicted as a man devoted to understanding the divine, often contrasting his disdain for the physical form with his pursuit of intellectual truth. Biographical accounts present a portrait of Plotinus as a philosopher who engaged with students and contemporaries, laying the groundwork for a system of thought that influences both metaphysics and ethical discussions in philosophy. As the narrative progresses, it highlights Plotinus's ascetic lifestyle and intellectual pursuits, foreshadowing the detailed explorations of his ideas that will follow in the subsequent chapters.
