The volume originates from a panel on the topic held at the 2013 ISNS meeting in Cardiff, but is supplemented by a number of invited papers. Together they offer a comprehensive view of the various roles and levels of prayer characteristic of this period. The concept of prayer is shown to include not just formal petitionary or encomiastic prayer, but also theurgical practices and various states of meditation and ecstasy practised by such major figures as Plotinus, Porphyry, Iamblichus, Proclus, Damascius or Dionysius the Areopagite. 410 0$aStudies in Platonism, Neoplatonism, and the Platonic tradition ;$vVolume 19. 606 $aPhilosophy, Ancient 606 $aPrayer 606 $aPhilosophy and religion 615 0$aPhilosophy, Ancient. 615 0$aPrayer. 615 0$aPhilosophy and religion. 676 $a204.3 702 $aDillon$b John M. 702 $aTimotin$b Andrei 702 $aBrisson$b Luc 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822956403321 996 $aPlatonic theories of prayer$91500665 997 $aUNINA
