This book introduces readers to the profound philosophical system created by Proclus, arguably the greatest of the later Neoplatonists. Proclus' thought is situated at the culmination of the Platonic tradition, drawing on the ideas of Plato, Aristotle, and other ancient philosophers to construct a unified and comprehensive worldview. The book explores the central themes of Proclus' philosophy, including his theory of emanation, his understanding of the soul and its journey, and his vision of the ultimate goal of human union with the divine. Through a detailed analysis of Proclus' major works, the book provides a comprehensive overview of his thought and its significance for the history of philosophy.
