Authentic memoirs of the life of Pythagoras--the father of philosophy and the inventor of geometry--hold the great interest for every lover of wisdom. Iamblichus' biography is universally acknowledged as deriving from sources of the highest antiquity. Its classic translation by Thomas Taylor was first printed in 1818 and is once again brought to light in this edition. During Iamblichus' life, the depth and sublimity of his writing and discourse attracted a multitude of associates and disciples from all parts of the world. The Emperor Julian wrote of him, "that he was posterior indeed in time, but not in genius, to Plato," and all the Platonists who succeeded him honored him with the epithet of "divine." Iamblichus' account of the life of Pythagoras begins with the great philosopher's birth on the island of Samos, his youth, and his wide renown in Greece. It briefly covers his early travels and his studies with the philosophers Anaximander and Thales, his twenty-two years of instruction in the temples of Egypt, and his initiation into the Egyptian and Babylonian mysteries. The later life and work of Pythagoras are richly elaborated, with humorous and profound anecdotes illustrating his philosophy and providing a unique view of community life under his tutelage in Crotona. Included are excerpts from his teachings on harmonic science, dietetic medicine, friendship, temperance, politics, parenthood, the soul's former lives and many other topics. The book also contains substantial sections on the Fragments of the Ethical Writings (the work of very early Pythagoreans) and the Pythagoric Sentences.

Iamblichus' "Life of Pythagoras, or Pythagoric Life" intricately intertwines biography, philosophy, and the mystique of Pythagorean thought within a rich literary tapestry. Written in the early 4th century CE, this work emerges from the Neoplatonic tradition, emphasizing the spiritual and metaphysical teachings of Pythagoras. Iamblichus employs a vivid narrative style, blending mythic elements with philosophical discourse, and showcases Pythagoras as a divine figure whose insights extend beyond mathematics into ethics, religion, and cosmology, thereby illuminating the essence of Pythagorean philosophy in a historical context steeped in cultural and intellectual ferment. Iamblichus, a prominent philosopher in the Neoplatonic school, was profoundly influenced by the teachings of Plotinus and the Pythagorean tradition. His works often reflect a desire to reconcile Platonic philosophy with mystical experiences and theurgy, indicating a search for transcendental truths beneath the surface of rational thought. The "Pythagoric Life" stands as a testament to his reverence for Pythagoras, embodying not only the intellectual legacy but also the spiritual aspirations of his era, offering both a historical account and a tribute to Pythagorean ideals. This compelling biography is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient philosophy, mysticism, or the historical interplay between mathematics and spirituality. Iamblichus'Äô work invites readers to explore the foundational ideas that shaped Western thought and inspires a deeper understanding of the philosophical traditions that continue to influence contemporary discourse.
