Presenza e significato della κίνησις nelle Enneadi di Plotino

Abstract

dc:description

My Ph.D. research is aimed at finding and analyzing the occurences of the word κίνησις, and similar expressions, in Plotinus' Enneads. The employment of the lexicons has allowed me to pick up a catalog of around eight hundred occurrences of the term κίνησις. I have identified two tematic areas for the use of κίνησις, one regarding the sensible reality, the other the intelligible reality. In the first part of my study I focus on κίνησις occurrences that appear in reference to the body and to those souls who are related with bodies; in the second part I analyze the construction of the intelligible reality in which κίνησις is implicated as a γένος. In the first part of my research I present the analysis of the treaties: 2 (IV, 7); 3 (III, 1); 8 (IV, 9); 26 (III, 6); 27 (IV, 3); 28 (IV, 4); 29 (IV, 5); 14 (II, 2); 40 (II, 1); 45 (III, 7); 53 (1, 1); in the second part I present the analysis of Plotinus' treaties dedicated to the “Genera of Being”, 42-44 (VI, 1-3)
