The book traces the sources of this notion in Aristotle and its reception in Stoicism, Middle Platonism and Early Aristotelian Commentators. It then shows how Plotinus? critical discussion of the inherent problems in previous accounts and his investigation of the notion's application to the Intellect and the One, leads to a highly original interpretation of the notion as central to his account of human agency. The book demonstrates Plotinus? serious engagement with the central issues of ancient ethics, and his original way of tackling them. 410 0$aPhilosophia antiqua ;$vv. 113. 606 $aEthics, Ancient 615 0$aEthics, Ancient. 676 $a186/.4 700 $aEliasson$b Erik$0610387 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792119403321 996 $aNotion of That which depends on us in Plotinus and its background$91117269 997 $aUNINA
