Introduction

Dominic Omara is Emeritus Professor of Philosophy from the University of Freiburg in Switzerland. He has written two books about Neoplatonism, Platonopolis and Pythagoras Revived. The conventional image that you find about all Neoplatonist philosophers is that they take no interest in what it means to live well in ordinary life. And this seems to entail according to the conventional view that they takes no interest in how to organize one's daily existence with other people.
