SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In this book, Majumdar investigates Plotinian "emanation," its laws of poiesis and the roles of nature, matter, logos and contemplation. She highlights the subtler details of Plotinus' cosmology by disentangling conceptual issues about the nature of soul and self and their impact on the process of generation of time and the cosmos.
