Author Description

"Iamblichus' Life of Pythagoras, or Pythagoric Life" is a comprehensive work translated from Greek by Thomas Taylor. This book delves into the life and philosophy of Pythagoras, one of the most enigmatic figures in ancient Greek philosophy. Taylor's translation not only presents Iamblichus' detailed account of Pythagoras' life but also includes valuable fragments of ethical writings from various Pythagorean philosophers, as well as a collection of Pythagoric sentences that were previously overlooked in other editions.
