The Platonic Philosopher's Creed: Theosophical Classics: Greek Philosophy

by Thomas Taylor

Thomas Taylor was the first to translate the complete works of Plato into English and as such, a prominent Neoplatonist of his day. He wrote prolifically and his huge body of work has been influential on generations of writers and thinkers that would follow him. Here he presents us with a concise summary of Platonic philosophy in the form of a creed. It is not intended to be read as dogma, so much as a guide for students and thinkers alike. This creed has been published several times with minor variations; this version was taken from the Theosophical literature of the late nineteenth century.
