Plotinus and Epicurus: Matter, Perception, Pleasure
Angela Longo
This collection of essays proposes a new way of understanding themes such as matter, knowledge, human happiness and the gods in Epicurus and Plotinus. It argues that Platonism not only vehemently criticised Epicurus' theory of human and divine pleasure, but also borrowed some concepts from him.
