The Six Enneads
by Plotinus
The Six Enneads represent the complete philosophical works of Plotinus, the founder of Neoplatonism. These treatises, arranged by his student Porphyry into six groups of nine (hence "Enneads"), examine the nature of reality, the human soul's relationship to the divine, ethics, aesthetics, and the path of spiritual ascent toward ultimate union with the One.
