This volume is the first monograph devoted to the philosophy of Taurus of Beirut, and provides a long-awaited analysis of his texts and their first English translation. Through close examination of the extant witnesses, Petrucci gives a new account of Middle Platonism based on a fresh approach to the theological and cosmological view of Taurus. In this way, the book contributes substantially to the debate on Post-Hellenistic Platonism from the point of view of both exegetical methods and philosophical doctrines, and offers a starting point for a new understanding of many aspects of ancient thought.

This volume collects ten revised and translated essays by Bruno Centrone, one of Italy's leading scholars of ancient philosophy. Together they trace a rich and coherent intellectual narrative from Plato's metaphysics, ethics, and psychology to their reinterpretation to later Pythagoreanizing writings. Centrone's studies combine meticulous philological accuracy with philosophical depth, shedding new light on Plato's conception of truth, being, virtue, and the soul, as well as on the complex processes through which later thinkers reshaped Platonic doctrines. A particular strength of the book lies in its treatment of post-Hellenistic pseudo-Pythagorean texts, for which Centrone's work remains foundational. By collecting and making these landmark studies available in English, this volume provides an essential resource for scholars, graduate students, and libraries, and a crucial bridge between Italian and anglophone traditions of scholarship on ancient philosophy.

Is music just matter of hearing and producing notes? And is it of interest just to musicians? By exploring different authors and philosophical trends of the Roman Empire, from Philo of Alexandria to Alexander of Aphrodisias, from the rebirth of Platonism with Plutarch to the last Neoplatonists, this book sheds light on different ways in which music and musical notions were made a crucial part of philosophical discourse. Far from being mere metaphors, notions such as harmony, concord and attunement became key philosophical tools in order to better grasp and conceptualise fundamental notions in philosophical debates from cosmology to ethics and from epistemology to theology. The volume is written by a distinguished international team of contributors.

All disciplines can count on a noble founder, and the representation of this founder as an authority is key in order to construe a discipline's identity. This book sheds light on how Plato and other authorities were represented in one of the most long-lasting traditions of all time. It leads the reader through exegesis and polemics, recovery of the past and construction of a philosophical identity. From Xenocrates to Proclus, from the sceptical shift to the re-establishment of dogmatism, from the Mosaic of the Philosophers to the Neoplatonist Commentaries, the construction of authority emerges as a way of access to the core of the Platonist tradition.
