The Wisdom of Plotinus is a book written by Charles J. Whitby that explores the teachings and philosophy of the ancient Greek philosopher Plotinus. Plotinus was a prominent figure in the development of Neoplatonism, a school of thought that combined the ideas of Plato with elements of Eastern mysticism and religion. The book delves into Plotinus' ideas on topics such as the nature of reality, the relationship between the soul and the divine, and the concept of the One. Whitby provides a comprehensive analysis of Plotinus' writings, drawing on his own expertise in philosophy and theology to offer insights and interpretations of the philosopher's ideas. The book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy, particularly those interested in the development of Neoplatonism and its influence on later philosophical and religious thought.A Metaphysical Study. ""Casually introduced to the notice of the writer (Whitby), at an age when his mind must have been peculiarly susceptible to their significance, the Enneads of Plotinus took such a grip upon his imagination that for many months they seemed to have translated him bodily to the shining sphere of supersensual experience.""
