Although traditionally regarded as a polemical commentator on the late Neoplatonist Proclus, this volume highlights Nicholas' substantial contribution to metaphysics and philosophical theology. It also situates his work within the broader intellectual context where Neoplatonism and its relation to Byzantine Christian theology were actively debated. The contributions gathered here are of particular significance for those interested in the Byzantine afterlife of late antique Neoplatonism and its legacy in the later Byzantine tradition and the Renaissance.History of Metaphysics: Ancient, Medieval, Modern ;7.Religious Studies, Theology and Philosophy E-Books Online, Collection 2025Context and LegacyClassical StudiesPhilosophyClassical Studies.Philosophy.025.4/3Calma DragosGreig JonathanRobinson JoshuaNL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9911018867103321Nicholas of Methone, Reader of Proclus in Byzantium4421234UNINA
