What it is
A translation of and commentary on Proclus, arguing that Neoplatonic metaphysics can be reconciled with Christian doctrine.
Why it lasted
The high point of Georgian philosophy, and a bold defence of pagan philosophy at a time when Byzantium was condemning it.
Where to read it
Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.
These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
