Abstract

The reception of Proclus’ Elements of Theology and the Book of Causes is certainly one of the most significant and complex themes for understanding the influence of Neoplatonic thought from the sixth century to the modern age. This volume is the second of three edited by Dragos Calma, in which the proceedings of the Parisian conference (12–13 February 2016) dedicated to the reception of the Elements of Theology and the Book of Causes are published. It gathers 18 contributions (12 in English, 5 in French, and 1 in German) by various scholars who have addressed the topic in question by focusing on specific aspects of the reception of these two texts between the sixth and 16th centuries in very different periods and cultural contexts. For this reason, the weighty volume is divided into five sections according to the cultural and geographical areas examined:(1) Byzantium,(2) The Caucasus,(3) The Lands of Islam,(4) The Latin West, and(5) The Hebrew Tradition.In view of the breadth and richness of the themes dealt with, I will limit myself to some brief and summary remarks on the main topics addressed in each essay.
阅读前言和原因之书:2。德拉戈斯·卡尔玛编辑的《翻译与文化适应》
普罗克劳斯的《神学要素》和《原因之书》的接受无疑是理解新柏拉图主义思想从六世纪到现代的影响的最重要和最复杂的主题之一。本卷是Dragos Calma编辑的三卷中的第二卷,其中出版了巴黎会议(2016年2月12日至13日)的会议记录,致力于接受神学要素和原因之书。它收集了18篇来自不同学者的文章(12篇英语,5篇法语,1篇德语),这些学者通过关注6世纪到16世纪在不同时期和文化背景下对这两篇文章的接受的具体方面来解决这个问题。出于这个原因,这本厚重的书根据所考察的文化和地理区域分为五个部分:(1)拜占庭,(2)高加索,(3)伊斯兰的土地,(4)拉丁西方,(5)希伯来传统。鉴于所处理的主题的广度和丰富性,我将限制自己对每篇文章中的主要主题进行一些简短和总结的评论。
