Program 2021-2022 :
The research project "Platonisms of Late Antiquity: Philosophical and Religious Interactions" aims to create a regular meeting place for scholars working on the interactions between philosophical and religious thought during the Roman Empire and Late Antiquity.
It seeks to better understand, on the one hand, the impact of religious thought on the emergence and construction of Neoplatonic philosophies and, on the other hand, to identify the philosophical sources of religious thought, in particular those found in the Gnostic, Hermetic and Chaldean Oracles texts.
It takes over a previous collaborative project, "Plotinus and the Gnostics", broadening its field of research in terms of chronology (before and after Plotinus) and in terms of the corpus studied (Medioplatonic, Hermetic, etc.), and is directly linked to the theme of the database
