Extractions: Proclus (412-486) Proclus est le plus célèbre des philosophes de l'école néoplatonicienne. Presque toutes ses oeuvres nous sont parvenues, dont le Commentaire sur le premier livre des Eléments d' Euclide , son chef d'oeuvre. Grâce à cet ouvrage qui commente notamment les définitions géométriques d'Euclide, on peut se faire une idée précise de la définition métaphysique que Proclus donne aux objets mathématiques. Proclus compare la pensée à un miroir-plan : "Il faut entendre le plan pour ainsi dire comme préétabli et placé devant les yeux, la pensée comme y décrivant toutes choses, et l'imagination assimilée en quelque sorte à un miroir plan sur lequel les concepts de la pensée renvoient leurs propres images." (PROCLUS, Commentaire sur le premier livres des Eléments d'Euclide , p. 109). On retrouve la même image chez N. de Cues : "l'âme regardant en elle-même, produit à la fois les concepts mathématiques et les sciences qui les étudient." ( De Mente , Herder, III, 554, et De Ludo Globi , Herder, III, 322).

We possess only that on the first book, which is valuable for the information it contains on the history of geometry" (Cajori 61).

Proclus Neoplatonist Philosopher ( February 8 April 17 Born to a rich family in Constantinople , he studied rhetoric, philosophy and mathematics in Alexandria of Egypt. He came back to Constantinopole and was a successful lawyer for a short time. However as he preferred philosophy, he went to Athens in to study at the famous School of Philosophy which was founded 800 years before by Plato . He lived in Athens until the end of his life, except for a one year exile due to his political-philosophical activity which was not tolerated by the Christian regime. He became head master of Athens' School of Philosophy. His work can be divided in two parts. In the first part are his

http://galileoandeinstein.physics.virginia.edu/lectures/proclus.html

Extractions: It was Thales, who, after a visit to Egypt, first brought this study to Greece. Not only did he make numerous discoveries himself, but laid the foundation for many other discoveries on the part of his successors, attacking some problems with greater generality and others more empirically. After him Mamercus the brother of the poet Stesichorus, is said to have embraced the study of geometry, and in fact Hippias of Elis writes that he achieved fame in that study. Plato, who lived after Hippocrates and Theodorus, stimulated to a very high degree the study of mathematics and of geometry in particular because of his zealous interest in these subjects. For he filled his works with mathematical discussions, as is well known, and everywhere sought to awaken admiration for mathematics in students of philosophy.

Extractions: Proclus 410?-485, Neoplatonic philosopher, b. Constantinople. He studied at Alexandria and at Athens, where he was a pupil of the Platonist Syrianus, whom he succeeded as a teacher. As a partisan of paganism he was forced to leave Athens, but he returned at the end of a year. A synthesizer of Neoplatonic doctrines, Proclus gave the philosophy its most systematic form. He kept the elements of Plotinus, but introduced a principle of triadic development in the series of emanations; the three stages are an original, an emergence from the original, and a return in a lower form to the original. Proclus differed from Plotinus in regard to the origin of matter, which he held to emerge from the first emanation rather than from the plastic forces. Among his writings are commentaries on several Platonic dialogues and two treatises, On Plato's Theology and Institutes of Theology.

He studied at the University of Padua and according to his own account, lectured there about 1559 on the Sphere of Sacrobosco. Barocius' edition of Proclus' commentary on the first book of Euclid 's Elements was the first important translation of this work, for it was based on better manuscripts than previous efforts had been. The translation, published at Venice in 1560, was completed by Barocius at the age of twenty-two."D.S.B., I, p. 468.

proclus NeoPlatonic Philosophy and Science Lucas Siorvanes Siorvanes's extensiveoriginal research presents proclus as much more than just a metaphysician.
http://www.yale.edu/yup/books/068069.htm

Extractions: Proclus, head of the Philosophy School at Athens for fifty years, was one of the leading philosophical figures in Late Antiquity. Lucas Siorvanes here introduces Proclus to English-language readers, discussing his metaphysics and theory of knowledge and focusing in particular on his Neo-Platonism. Proclus lived in the turbulent fifth century A.D., a time of struggles among Christians, Jews, and pagans, the invasion of Attila the Hun, the fall of the Western Roman Empire, and the rise of the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium. While Late Antiquity has been regarded as a time of superstition and forbiddingly complex philosophies, recent scholarship has shown it to be full of cultural and intellectual vigor. During Proclus's tenure as head of the Philosophy School, he systematized Neo-Platonism as the summit of ancient Greek thought, brought it to its peak of influence, and became responsible for the form in which it was transmitted to the Byzantine, Western European, and Islamic civilizations. Siorvanes's extensive original research presents Proclus as much more than just a metaphysician. He surveys all of Proclus's philosophical interestsincluding religion, physics, astronomy, mathematics, and poetryrevealing the philosopher's central concern with the problems of being and knowledge and relating the ideas of Proclus to those of such other major thinkers as Plato, Aristotle, and Ptolemy. To help the newcomer, Siorvanes supplies more than 200 quotations from Proclus's works. He also traces the impact of Proclus's Neo-Platonism across cultures, religions, and centuries, in such diverse areas as Christian and Islamic theologies, Renaissance art, Kepler's astronomy, Romantic poetry, Emerson's thought, modern philosophy and science, and current popular phrases.

http://www.geocities.com/leucretia/icinfo/library/books/proclus.html

Extractions: Proclus Proclus was reared at Xanthus in Lycia, and he studied philosophy under Olympiodorus the Elder at Alexandria. At Athens he studied under the Greek philosophers Plutarch and Syrianus, whom he followed as diadochos (Greek: "successor"), or head of the Academy founded by Plato c. 387 BC. Remaining there until his death, he helped refine and systematize the Neoplatonic views of the 3rd-century Greek philosopher Iamblichus, whose school stressed elaborate metaphysical speculation. Like Iamblichus, Proclus opposed Christianity and passionately defended paganism. As a Neoplatonic Idealist, he emphasized that thoughts comprise reality, while concrete "things" are mere appearances. Ultimate reality, the "One," is both God and the Good and unifies his ethical and theological systems. His attitudes significantly influenced subsequent Christian theology, in both East and West, through their adaptation by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite, a 5th-century writer whose forgeries were long thought to be works by a 1st-century convert of the Apostle Paul, Dionysius the Areopagite. The Elements is a concise exposition of Neoplatonic metaphysics in 211 propositions. His Elements of Physics distilled the essence of Aristotle's views, and his In Platonis theologiam (Platonic Theology) explicated Plato's metaphysics. His commentaries on Plato, extant in their entirety, include those on The Republic, Parmenides, Timaeus, and Alcibiades I.
