Neoplatonism In Ruysbroeck Through The Intermediary Of St. Augustine is a scholarly book written by A. Wautier D'Aygalliers. The book explores the influence of Neoplatonism on the mystical writings of Jan van Ruysbroeck, a Flemish mystic and writer of the 14th century. The author argues that Ruysbroeck's mystical thought was deeply influenced by the philosophy of Neoplatonism, particularly through the works of St. Augustine, who was himself influenced by Neoplatonism. The book provides a detailed analysis of the key concepts of Neoplatonism, such as the concept of the One, the soul, and the ascent of the soul towards the divine. It also examines the influence of Neoplatonism on the Christian mystical tradition and the ways in which Ruysbroeck's writings reflect this influence. The book is aimed at scholars and students of philosophy, theology, and mysticism, and provides a valuable contribution to the study of the history of ideas.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Ruysbroeck the Admirable, by A.
