The Plotinus Reader provides a generous selection of translations
from the fifty-four treatises that together make up the Enneads of
Plotinus, a central work in the history of philosophy. They were
prepared by a team of specialists in ancient philosophy and edited
by Lloyd P. Gerson. Based on the definitive critical edition of the
Greek along with decades of additional textual criticism by many
scholars, these translations aim to provide a readable, accurate
rendering of Plotinus's often very difficult language. Included are
extensive references to Plotinus's sources, scores of
cross-references, and an extensive glossary of technical terms.
