In this post, Conor shares a paper on the impossibility of kakology (a science of evil) in Proclus and Pseudo-Dionysius

In part 1/2 of a review on Matthew Briel’s A Greek Thomist: Providence in Gennadios Scholarios, I outline the first part of Briel’s book, on the theological/philosophical background of providence in the Byzantine Tradition and Scholarios’ other key influence, Thomas Aquinas. I raise some questions from the overarching late antique/Platonist philosophical tradition.
