Preface

The idea that gave birth 'to this volume goes back some years to when we were discussing privatdy how to celebrate the forthcoming ninetieth birthday of our friend and instructor Holger Thesleff. This was to happen, we fdt, discretely and as unostentatiously as possible, and paying particular attention to Plato and his work, which have been the major fOcus ofThesleffs scholarly interests over the

past decades. As it happens, the honorand was not unaware of our ?lans, and indeed we are glad to recognize that during the whole process h.e had a host of constructive thoughts of how to deal with it. In particular, thanks to Thesleffs farsighted and well-thought views, an initially planned gathering of a number of Platonists !n Helsinki transformed into a volume, the present one, containing contributions by the same people. Rath.er than a traditional Festschrift, the book was to become a collection of critical revisitations of ~arious Platonic themes, many of which have been discussed by Thesleff himsel£ In many respects, then, what the reader has in hand may be literally taken as a 'second sailing'. Coin­cidence or not, Holger Thesleff himself is a seafaring man, as is shown by the frontispiece photograph of the square-rigged windjammer Passat, one of the last true Cape Horn ships, with Holger as apprentice on board in the late 1940s on the voyage from England to South Australia and as third mate on the way back to Wales via Ireland.

This book would never have docked in harbour without the gratuitous and sagacious commitment of its chief editors, professors Debra Nails and Harold Tarrant, who became involved with the project at an early stage. We are im­mensely grateful for their contribution.

Our sincerest thanks go to the publisher, the Finnish Society of Sciences and Letters, for accepting this volume to appear in the Commentt.ztiones Humanarum Litterarum, as well as to the general editor of the series, professor Jaakko Frosen,

who gave invaluable support during the editorial process.

20 EL MURR, Paradigmatic Method

Therefore, the paradigmatic method can lead to the awakening of knowledge but not solely through its own action: it is a crucial tool for dialectical enquiries inasmuch as it enables the division to resume and progress on the right track. Be­cause it secures the starting-point of the enquiry, the methodical use of paradigms guides the introduction of significant diffirentiae that the dialectician will intro­duce in the ~nera he considers, in order to isolate his target. Yet, Plato is eager to make clear that t;he paradigmatic method that underpins any use of paradigms does not allow one to attain knowledge of the target.

Pseudo-Archytas' Protreptics? On Wisdom in its Contexts*

PHJLLIP SroNEYHORKY

Among ancient philosophers, pseudo-Atchytas has not fared especially well. With the exceptioa ofhis work On the [!nivmal Logos (or, in its alternative tide, On the Categories), which has been studied for its value in calibrating the various reac­tions to Aristotle's Categories in the first century BCE (especially in Alexandria), the remaining fragments of ps-Atchytas have generally received little discussion in the critical literature. 1 The titles of these works are, in order of probable date of production, On Law and justice (possibly composed around the late fourth or early third cenruries BeE); On Wisdom, On Intelligence and Perception, and On Being (possibly fourth to first century BCE, likely leaning towards the end of this period); On the Universal Logos/On the Categories, On Opposites, On the Virtuous and Happy Man, and On Moral Ed~cation (very likely first century BCE); ·and Ten Universal Amrtions (after the founh century c.e). 2 Most of these: works appear to be treatises, with the exception of On Law and justice, which is currently the sub­ject of an extensive study by myself and Monte Ransome Johnson, and which we hypothesize to have been an extract from a speech associated with Arch yeas by his biographer Aristoxenus ofTarenrum in the late fourth/early third century BCE.3

If these termini post and ante quem are approximately valid, then we have a situation in which production of Pythagorean pseudepigrapha4 was a sustained

Studies a:' ps-Archyta.!' philosophy withili. the larger context of the Pythagorean pseudcpigta­

pha include Ccntronc 2014, 2000b, and 1990; Reale 1990, 237-49; and Mor:aux 1984, 608-83.

SzlC'J.ak 1 ?;"2 is the only monograph dedicated to this author, and only to one work (On tht Uniwr­sa/ Logos/On the Categorin). Griffin 2015, 97-99 discu=s On the G'nivena/ Logos/On th• Categories in the con tat of the fragments of Eudorus and Andronicus.

I adopt a version ofTheslelf'§ dating (1961) for the purposes of this article but suspend judg­ment at this time about dating these tars more precisely.

See Horky and Johnson (forthcoming).

Following ThesldF and Moraux, I refer to these works as '1'}-rhagorean pseudepigtapha' rather

than 'Pseudo-Pythagorean' works ~r 'Pseudopyrhagorica' (as Burkert, Centrone, Huffman, Macris,

and Ulacco do), which, in my opinion, lw the capacity to be doubly obscuranrisr. not only does

it assume that"~ can clas.i!}r 'real' vs. 'pseudo-' Pytlugorcans with any confidence (which I have argued is an effort thar rests on dubious historiographical principles in Horky 2013, chapter 3); it

effort over a period of several hundred years, 5 although it is quite difficult to say with precision who wrote th.em, or when or whe::e exactly they were written, after the second half of the foutth century BCE, the period within which Pythagorean philosophy received systematic treatments in the works of the Peripatetics Aris­toxenus, Dicaearchus, Eudoxus, and Theophrastus, on the one side, and the early Platonists Xer..ocrates and Speusippus, on the other, all of whom wrote doxog­raphical works that treated, or philosophical works dedicated to, Pythagorean philosophy and history, which were subsequently passed· down through the tra­ditions. 6 As is the case with Aristotle's dialogues, which have been lost to us but were available in the Hellenistic period, so too tt"le treatments of Pythagoreanism issuing from the Academ;' and the Lyceum remain out of our reach, although one could speculare, for example, from the relative popularity of the ph.ilosophical biographies of Aristoxcnus in the Hellenistic and post-Hellenistic worlds, that Pythagoreanism in general held a certain place in the imaginations of those Ro­mans and Greeks who celebrated Pythagorean wisdom.?

It is thus in the sh.adowy context of the Hellenistic and posc-Hellenistic worlds that a work attributed to the fourth century BCE Pythagorean Archytas ofTarentum by the Neoplaconist Iamblichus of Chalcis in Prompticus, entitled On Wisdom, comes into view. The reception and reconstruction of Pythagorean thought in the Pythagorean pseudepigrapha has a close relationship to both Early and Middle Platonism, probabl7 due: to the Peripatetic and Academic empha­sis on the relevance of Pythagorean philosophy fer Platonist metaphysics (the doctrine of the principles and form-numbers), theology (the craftsman-god and homoiosis theot}, epistemology (the role of number in obtaining knowledge),

also de-contextualizes the writing. ftoro the genre of pseulepigrapha, which flourished especially

in the Hellenistic world. For useful introductiollli to the topic, see Ulacco forthcoming, Centrone

2014, and Macris 2002, 78-85.

5 · Such is the hypothesis ofThosleff 1961 and, with less confidence, Cenrrone 2014 and 2000a.

Generally, on the early Platonists and Pythagoreanism, see Dillon 2014, 25Q.-60; for the

Peripatetics and Pythagoreanism, see Huffinan 2014. It is not often assumed that the links between

especially the ~arlr Platonists and the Pythagorean pseudepigcapha might be of relevance to the 're­

discovery' ofboth those corpora in the first century BCE. See Bonazzi 2012, 162--69. It may be tell­ing that the first complete collection of the pseudepigcapha was undertaken by lhesleff, although it is likely that Iomb., and Stob. after him (the latrer app.ars to have had access to the library of

Iarob., or to have obtained a similar collection of pseudepigrapha as those ofl2rob.), brought thero together (see Iamb. VP 157-8). See Macris 2002, 88-106.

BCE until the second century CE (cf. Horky 2011).

physics (the generation of the= cosmos), ethics and psychology (virtue ethics, me­tempsychosis, and the bipc.rtite/tripartite soul), and politics (the mixed constitu­tion). While a great amount of work remains to be: done: on these= topics, in th.is piece I would like to focus on just one topic that, to my knowledge, has almost never received substantial discussion among scholars, namely Pythagorean pro­treptics in th.e Hellenistic and post-Hdlenistic worlds, i.e. the &agrr.ents of the

Pythagorean pseudepigrap:u that appear to exhort a young potential philosopher to philosophical education, especially by reference to the value that wisdom in particular holds for theoretical reasoning and practical intelligence. 8 Two texts from the collected pseudepigrapha can be associated with protreptics, On Wis­dom of ps-Archytas, and the very closely related On Wtsdom of ps-Pericrione.9

My project in this piece is twofold: first, to examine the philosophical content of the fragments of ps-Archytas' On Wisdom, especially with reference to his claims about what theoretical philosophy is, in th.e context of texts that are of relevance to this unique expression; md second, to consider how Iamblichus, who preserves

the five fra,oments of On Wisdom in the fourth chapter of his Protrepticus, rein­terprets th.eir content in o:rder to justifY his own philosophical claims about th.e beneficent relationship between th.eoretical philosophy and practical intelligence. I will start with the latter aspect of the enquiry and interweave both aspects by approaching the fragments in order of presentation by Iamblichus.

It is worth noting first that ps-Archytas' On Wisdom occupies an important location in Iamblichus' Protrepticus: it appears in the fourth chapter, just after Iamblichus has analysed the acusmata and the Golden ~rses, which he considers m have been passed down through the tradition from Pythagoras (3.1 0.14-17 Pistelli), and explained their centrality for any universal exhortation to philoso­

phy. Similarly, the fragments of On Wisdom also appear just before Iamblichus'

On protreptics, see recent work by "';,.reh 2012, 41-54 and Collins 2015. The only scholarly

work to treat ps-Archyw' On WISdom in any detail-and, incidentally, the only translation into English of those fragments-is Johnson 2008, 17-21. Mocaux (1984, 632-3) mentions On Wir­dom in rd'crcnce to discussion of ontology and principles in other works of ps-Archytas. Huffman

(2005, 598-99) investigates the philosophical content of these fragments chiefly for the sake of

demonstrating their inauthentiC: ty. The fragments have been translated into French by Des Places

(1966), Germ.an by Schonberge• (1984). and Italian by Romano (1995) in their editions/transla­

tions oflamb., Protr., but are not exrensivdy analyzcd of their own account in any of rhose editions.

Johnson 2008, the only sustained philosophical discussion of this text that I know of, consid­

ers ps-Archyt. within the context of protreptic texts. It is notable that ps-Archyt. elsewhere (Con­

cmzing tht Whok Systtm 31.3Q.-32.23 Thc:sldf), in a text that is complementary to On Wirdom, shows interest in protreptics.

quotation of protrc:ptic passages from Plato's dialogues in chapter 5,10 which an­

ticipate the extensive selections Iamblichus made from Aristotle's Prompticus in

chapters 6-10. From this point of view, lamblichus understood ps-Archytas to be

an intermediary between Pythagoras himself and Plaro and Aristotle in advancing

protrc:ptic arguments. This is clear when we read the final paragraph of chapter

3, where one of the most 'Platonic' of the Goldm ~TJ,s, also Hellenistic produc­

tions, is exploited for its protreptic value (Prornpticus 3.15.15-16.17 Pistdli):

Moreover, at the end, [Pythagoras] exhons to the depaltUre of the soul to the

life it le2ds by iuelf, which is liberated from the body and from the natures that

are bound tog~ther with the body. This is what he says:

Set on high li/u tl chariouer the thoug,)t that is best;

by leaving the oody you go into tht .fru tUthtr, you will be immorta~ a god undying, .t mortal no wng"- [Au~a CarmiM69-71]

Now rhen, seuing up the best intellect as leadex in the highest rank preserves

the soul's undefiled likeness ro the: gods, towards which it exhorts primarily;

and le2ving the body and departing to the aethc:r, exchanging the human na­

ture roo for the purity of the gods, an.d preferring an immorul life over a mor­

tal way of life, provide restoration to the: very substance and. circuit with the

gods which W! had even earJiet, before - came into human fOrm. Thus has been shown the method of such encouragements, exhorring u,.; to whole kinds

of goods and to :ill the types of a better life. But if now we need to advance on the esoteric:, i.e. scientific, exhortations

as well, we should first take up those that, along with providing a teaching

about the most authoritative and primary realities, at the same time also exhort

to a theological and intellectual discovery and teaching of them, and encourage

the most vene:able wisdom.11

Comm. Hum. Litt. Vol. 132 25

The way up to ps-Archytas goes thro·.1gh the doctrinal sayings of the Py­

thagoreans, including the at:US7'TUlta and the Go/Mn V=tr. here lamblichus seizes

on ' Pythagoras" image of the charioteer which, as intellect, frees itself upon death

to obtain immortality, in order to encourage the student who is reading this text

to pursue a way of life that lamblichus treats as 'immortal', an echo of Socrates'

injunction after the final argument in the Phaedo (1Ct7c-d) to become as good

and as wise as possible through education and upbringing. 12 The idea of the

intellect as charioteer of the: soul-apparatus also solicits from Iamblichus strong

comparisons with the Pha,drw (247a-249 d), and when he claims that we:, by

pursuing this immortal way of life:, are restored to the substance and the: circuit

of the gods, it is clear that the analogies drawn between death and purification in

Plato's Phatdo and Pha,drw function for lamblichus a,.; an instmment by which

to structure his own protreptic.

Indeed, lamblichus explains that we need to advance upon what he calls

the 'esoteric', or the 'scientific', methods of exhortation, which are to be differ­

entiated from the more commonplace say:ngs of Pythagoras, whose protreptic

value the student is invited to concc:mplate.13 It is by reference to the 'scientific'

treatment of wisdom in the lost treatise called On Wudom, attributed to Archy­

tas, that Iamblichus sets out his own project of establishing the first principles

of being, the proper methods of division and collection, and the relationship

between theoretical knowledge and practical intelligence. He says (Prompticus 4. 16.17-17.19 Pisrelli):

Archytas, rhen, right at the beginning of his On Wisd4m, makes his exhortation

in this way:

Wisdom (sophia) exuls in a/J human activitia to tht sa11'11! extent that sight excels tht [other] mue; of the body, the inttlltct exuls th, soul and tht sun txuls th' stttrs. For sight is the most for-reaching and most variegated of the oth"" smm, and

the intellect is supreme at fulfilling what is n«essary by ml'ans of rtason (logos) and

thought, since it is the sight and powtr of tht most honorable things. Ntvtrtheless, the sun is th~ ~and soui of natural things; for all things are stm, gmerak d, and unelentood through it, and, riMt th9 stm~ and arr~ born from it, they arr nour-

ished, grown, and quicltened with sensation. [ps-Archytas, On Wzsdom Fragment

1 = 43.2~4.3 Thcslcff)

Here [Archytas] very scientifically exhibir.; both th~ nature and the acth·­

ity of wisdom, and he establishes his exhortation to inrellect (nous) and con­

templation (theoria) staning from the fact of its being most useful and most

authoritative. And he provides something el!e that is amazing, so to speak,

for a good exhortation; staning from what is well known, he establishes the

reminder (m<pomnbis) through a manifest analogy. For it is obvious to all that

vision is the sharpest of the senses, the most precise, and the most honol<'.blc:;

and it escapes no one's notice that the mn excels the stars; and we presuppose

that the intdlect of the soul rules over the common conceptions. Starting from

these, he hints at the excellence of wisdom with regard to all human aff.lirs, in

a well-known and scientific way, so that what is true is easily learned and easily

grasped by those who listen to what is encrypted in obscurity.

I will first provide an analysis of the fragment on its own terms, before turning to

lamblichus' intecpretation of it. Ps-Archytas starts from a definition of'wisdom',

via an analogy, in which wisdom obtains its excdlence by reference to all human

activities to the same extent that sight excds the other senses, intellect excels the

other parts of the soul, and the sun excels the other heavenly bodies. This strat­

egy of analogical comparison can also be round in other works of ps-Archytas,

including the fim fragment of On Law and Justice (33.3-6 Thc:slefi), in which

we hear that

the law's rdacion to the soul and way of life of a human being is the :ame as

attunemenr's relation to hearing and vocal expression. For, whereas the law educates the soul, it also organizes its way of life; likewise, whereas anunemcnt

makes hearing comprehensible, it also makes tb.e vocal apression agreeable.

It is clear from Aristotle's Mttaphysics (7.2, 1043al4-26 ~ Huffman A 22) that

the genuine Archytas ofTarentum est~blished definitions by way of drawing anal­

ogies between things, and Aristotle in the Rhttoric (3.2, 1412a9-17 = Huffinan

A 12) praised Archytas' approach to employing metaphors that were 'on. target'.

Within the Pythagorean pseudc:pigrapha, such analogies are uniqudy found in

the writings ascribed to Archyras, which indicates the popularity, at least within

the tradition, of passing down Archytan 'definition through analogy'. Iamblichus

recognizes such an analogy as 'amazing', but focuses on its role as a 'reminder'

in the economy of the protrepti(;-J.llikdy reference to 'writing' as a 'reminder'

Comm. Hum. Lin. Vol. 132 27

(hupomnisiJ- an unusual term in Plato) that is to be differentiated from the true

'memory' that leads one to wisdom in the Phadrus (275a). For Iamblichus, this

employment of a 'reminder' through analogy allows us to realize the excellence

of wisdom in all human ·affairs easily (he does not discuss how this works, here

or dsewhere), as analogy stimulates the: intellect to contemplate the comparative:

relations between immortal and mortal things.

Interestingly, ps-Archytas employs such analogies by comparative excellence

of the various parts of the soul, the senses, and the heavenly bodies, in order to

set up an argument that comes in Fragment 2, in which we see what appears to

be an adaptation of the Function Argument from the first book of Aristotle's Ni­comachtan Ethics (Iamblichus, Protrtpticus 4. 18.19-20.14 Pistdli):

14

Now, then, such is the approach which proceeds from the fact that wisdom is

honorable to the exhortation; the other approach, which proceeds from what

is truly human, reminds us of (hupomimnisltowa) the exhortation to the things

through which, when they are discussed in the following way [the fact that wisdom is honorable), is demonsuated:

7h~ human has been born the wisest by far of a/J th~ animals. For he has th~ capacity tu contemplate the thingr-thlll-are, and tu obtain ltnowl~dge and wisdom

concmting all of them. Whmfore th~ divine too engraved ( enecharrz::e) in him th~ system of univmal reason (tii pantos logii sustama), in which all the typer4 (~idea) of bring haw been distributed, as wt:U as the meanings of nouns and utrbs. For a seat for vocal sp~ech has been assigned-pharynx, mouth, and nostrils. But just as the human has been born as an instrument for ~~eh. through which nouns and utrbs art: signified through bring imprinted. so too has he been born as an instru­ment for thought, in which the things-thlll-are ar~ seen. It seems tu m~ that this is the functi()n of wisdom, for which tht humJZn has both been born and constituted, and {for which} he obtained his instruments and abi[jti~s from god. [ps-Archytas,

On Wiu,/om Fragment 2 = 44.5-15 1heslelij

lhis approach to exhortation arises out of the natwc: of a human being.

For if a human is wisest and capahk of contemplating (theiimat) the things-that­are, then he should make efforts to get theoretical and theological wisdom; and

if he has a supernatwal capacity to acquire knowledge and intelligence about

c:verything. then he should devote himself to the best of his abiliC) · to demon­

strative science and the virtue that concerns intdligcnce, which is appropriate

to him. And this i.s surely why the divine engraved in him th~ system of univmal

sp~~ch, in which aU th~ typu ofb~inu inhere, as ~//as th~ meanings of nouns and v~bs. For this reason it is appropriate for him to pwsue the whole of logical

only of meanings but also of the concepts that bdong in things that exist; and

it is for this reason that humans have been born, and have acquired instrummts and abilities ftom god. So for these reasons again, about all being insofar as it ex­

ists, humans need ro pursue theoretical wisdom and to hunt afttr scientifically

both th: principles and the criteria of all knowledge about every kind of being;

and it is right for humans to investigate the intdlecr by itself and the purest

reason; and it is appropriate to be taught eagerly from the: beginning how many

arc: the principles that affo«i the beautiful and good things in the human way

of life, and how many are the things we reason over concerning virtues univer­

sally, and how many things we: learn about mathematics and cenain other skills

and proficiencies. And this is hoVl the invitation that takes us from the nature

of the human being and urges rowards the whole of philosophy arose.

Ps-Arch;1:as echoes what is a somewhat commonplace axiology among some

contemporary Platonists, 15 and in the Pythagorean tradition., 16 that the human

being is wisest of all the animals because of his capacity to communicate and

contemplate the true beings; this position represents a modification of the Stoic claim that man is wisest because other things in nature ex:ist for the sake of him,

but, despite the fact that the author seems to be soliciting Aristotle's function

argument for his own purposes, the claim made by ps-Archyras is actually quite

distant from that of Aristotle, who was ambivalent about whether humans were

naturally born better than other animals, and focused instead on whether they

could perfect chernsdves through deliberation concerning the goods appropriate

15 Comp>rt Aet. 5.20.4, in which 'Pythagoru arul Plato' an: credited with the notion that the soul of so-caUed oon-ratiorual animals i> rational, but that they cannot act rationally (e.g. speak) because of the poor composition of their bodies. 16 See, e.g., Alex. Polyh.'s claim (ap. D. L. 30) that Pythag. believed that 'inrdligcnce (nour) md passion (tJn.mos) ..., also to be round in the other animals, but reason (JJhrrnts) is in the hu­man alone' .

to themselves, which is enhanced through ex:perience. 17 By contrast, p>-Archycas

has the human being receiving his capacities and instruments for intellectual and

perceptual engagement with the world through a divine gift-the 'engraving'

of the 'system of universal reason', which ps-Archycas explains to be that within

which the types of beings, as well as the meanings of nouns and verbs, are to be found. 18 Ps-Archycas interestingly assumes that the human has been generated as

an instrument (OJXanon) for speakbg and thinking, rather than assuming that the

mouth and the brain are the sole instruments for chose activities.19 Ps-Archytas

thus assumes that the human has a role to play within a larger cosmic economy, in

which he is the ,·ehide for verbal communication and discursive thinking, and he

possesses faculties distinctive from those of other animals in order to achieve this

goal. The latter activity, discursive thinking, appears to be undenaken in pursuit

of wisdom; the former activity, verbal discursive communication, makes possible

the ex:pression and grasping of mt anings, and it is not clear from this fragment

char ps-Archycas wishes to implicate verbal understanding in wisdom (sophia).20

Iamblichus too assumes that verbal communication ex:isrs for the sake of c:Xhorta­

tion to theoretical and theological wisdom, which he glosses as 'how many are

the principles chat ~.fford the beautiful and good things in the human way of

life, and how many are the things we reason over concerning virtues universally,

and how many things we learn about mathematics and certain other skills and

proficiencies'.

The ex:press relationship between theoretical and practical wisdom (phronisis) only comes once Iamblichus has la:d the ground for what he refers to as a 'mixed'

type of protreptic, namely, a prorr.::pric that ex:horts a young person not only to

theoretical wisdom, but also to practical knowledge that is corrdative with theo­

retical wisdom. So, quoting the short Fragment 3 of ps-Archytas' On Wisdom, Iamblichus says (Protrepticus4.20. 15-21.13 Pistelli):

17 For the importance of 'experience' to Arutot.'s notion of 'wisdom', see, in~« a/i4, Aristot. Mttaph. 1.1-2, 981b30-982a20. Cf. Johnson 2005, 225-28. 13 Comp= ps-Archyt., On lnttUigmce anJPm:eption (38.10-12 1heslell), where 'form' (~!do1) is defined u an 'imprint of being qua what-is' (tuposu tO ontos, ti on titin). 19 Comp= ps-.Archyt., On the Universal lAKos!On tht Clll<gories31.32- 32.5 1hesleff, where we hear chat the human being is the 'rule and standard' of knowledge. 20 It is possible that S. E. is referring to ps-Archyt. when he claims that the Pytbagoreans study the constituent parts of tne universe the S411le way they study the constituent parts of words (ad11. Math. 2.249- 50), although there he might be att.rl.ing the position of the Neopythagorean Mod­eratus of Gadcs (ap. Porpb. VP 48-49), whose v."Orks he demonstrably kn<W.

30 HORKY, Pseudo-Archrras' Protreptics?

[Archyt~] also posits another approach, the mixed one, which exhom to the

same l:h.ings in l:h.e following way:

The human has been born and constituted for the purpose of contemplating the reason of the nature I!! the universe; and. therefore, it is the fonction of wisdom to

<obtain> and contemplate the intelligence (th~ren tan phronasin) of the thing.r­

that-are. :ps-Archytas, On W~.rdom Fragment 3 = 44.17-20 Thesleff]

For we will not be passing through our lives in accordance with nature,

which is l:h.e chief object of our pursuit, unless we live in accordance wil:h.

reason, both the dkine and l:h.e human; nor v.ill we be successful in any other

wa~·, unless we acquire it through philosophy and we contm~plr.zte the intel­

ligmct of thf thing.r-that-are. Moreover, take note of this oilier sore of mixture in the above: in the same way, [.\rchytas] tries to ·.u-ge us on to bol:h. practical

and theoretical philosophy. For the acquisition of intelligence of something

productive is a function too of practical virtue, the end of which is not simply

beholding how it is, but apprehending it l:h.rough its activities; indeed, contem­

plation erists as an operation (e:1~lma) of the theoretical intellect. Further,

the exhortation turns out as it should, for both of !:hem.

Interestingly, it is not obvious from ps-Archytas' fragment alone that he seeks to

implicate, as Iamblichus does, practical intelligence in theoretical wisdom. 21 As it stands, ps-Archytas only claims that it is the function of wisdom to obtain and contemplate the phronisis of the things-that-are, i.e., of real objects, in a Platon­

ist sense (which he later explains, as we will see). How re translate phronisis here

depends entirely on our assumptions about what this fragment is contributing to

ps-Archytas' system:22 if it is 'practical intelligence', one would need to explain why the qualification 'of the things-that-are' is present; if it is 'intelligence', in

the sense of 'prudence', then the axiology remains intact, but we are forced to

explain how the things-that-are, by which ps-Archytas appears to mean 'forms',

21 & apparently Antioch. Hist. (fr. 9 Sedley ~ Cic. Fin. 5.58; see Dillon 1996, 75) and Akin.

(Diddslt. 152.30-153.1; <ee Sedley 20 12). The position of ps-Archyt. with a strong emphasis on the

importance of throria in its own right, might also be thought to anticipate that of Plu. who, like

Eudol11.5 (see Dillon 1996, 122), thought that 'throria leads the way, and. is fulfilled through praxi! (sa Bonan.i 2012, 148). 22 Interestinpy, the ps-Archyt. who wrote On the VirtuoUI and Happy Man (11.23-26 Thesleff)

differ~ntiares 'science' (epistimt) from phronesis, which are considered two parts of wisdom: 'When

I say 'science', I mem 'the wisdom (sophia) of divine and daemonic things'; and 'prudence' (J>h­ronasis), '[the wl<dom] of human things, and things that car.cern life'. A:te these texts written by different pseudepigraphers?

Comm. Hum. Utt. Vol. 132. 31

'genera, and 'principles' (as we will se.:. below), are actively prudent. Possibly he

means something more passive, e.g. that the things-that-are are 'prudent' in the

sense that th: system of universal reason, within which they inhere, has a strict

economy, and that 'forms and 'genera, as well as 'principles', are best organized,

most efficient, and hck inconsistencks.

Regardless, it is cleat that Iamblichus takes ps-Archytas to be speaking about

both theoretical knowledge and practical intelligence. For Iamblichus develops a nuanced sense of the relationship between theoretical 'intellect' and practical

'virtue' by claiming that contemplation is an operation of the theoretical intellect

that, by apprehending the intelligence of a productive object through observa­

tio::J. of its activities, is the culmination (telos) of practical virtue:. We are meant

to interpret ps-Archytas as saying that the intellect's operation of contemplation

(theoria) is the final cause of the virtue that obtains its value within the practi­

cal sphere of life. Hence, so Iamblichus protests in a way that challenges a more

straightforw:mf reading of the text of ps-Archyras, the exhortation to philosophy

fot;lld in On Wtsdom is to be understood as an exhortation both to contemplation

and to practical ethics.

However, if we are to judge by the fragment that is presented by Iamblichus

as following upon Fragment 3, ps-Archytas is mt speaking about practical intelli­

gence or the like. Instead, what Y'e see is a further explanation of what the proper

objects of wisdom are, and how wisdom, by considering the accidents univer­

sally, discovers the first principles of the things-that-are (Jamblichus, Protrepticus 4.21.14-22.15 Pistelli):

Therefore, since the good of wisdom is made more apparent when it is com­mon and extended to all C:.~ings, l:h.e exhortatioc, towards it [the good] becomes

more conplete through the following [words of Archytas]:

W~.rdom is not conctrmd with one delimited (aphiirismenon) thing among the

thingr-that-art, but with all thi71gr-that-art in an abJolute rmse (hapliis), and it is necessa:-y not for it to disc~Wer first iti own principks, but ratkr those that are common to the thing.r-that-are; for wisdom relates to all the thing.r-that-are in the same way as sight does to ail the thing.r that are seen. Ihn"ifore, it is proper for wis­

dom to ctJnsider and contemplate the accidenti of aU thing.r univmaUy (ltatho/o),

and, henu, wisdom discovert the principles of aU rhing.r-that-ttre. lps-Archytas, On Wudom Fragment 4 ~ 44.22-28 Thesleff]

For here again, [Archytas] does not ddimit its activity to some part, but

says it extends in commo:1 over all the things-iliac-are, and he says !:hat it in­

~estigate! the principles that are common to whole l:h.ings, and it contemplates

32 HORKY, Pseudo-Archytas' Protreptics?

according to these kinds and to the simple a.pprehensions, just as vision ap­prehends the things that art seen; and he: says that it comprises the univerul

rationalcs for everything and, in addition to this, contnnplates and discusses; and he says char it is the only unconditional knowledge, too, since it discoverr the principlrs of all the things-that-art, and is able to give a rationale concern­

ing its own proper principles. This approach of exhortation, then, devdops

beautifully; for if wisdom is of this sort and ic is not possible for reasoning to

acquire :;.n exhortation that is more universal, more perfect, more common, more sdf-suflicienr, more well-formed, or more beauti£Ul than this one, then

those: who •.-lish to be succc:ss£Ul need to pursue this in accordance wi.th reason

and intellect.

As we saw in Fragment 1 of ps-Archyras' On W.rsdom, wisdom fulfills its duty

among human activities, and so is an activity practiccd by human beings-but

it is directed specifically towards 'the things-that-are'. 23 Because, so ps-Arch~rtas seems to be arguing, wisdom concerns itself not with knowledge of composite

indidduals (which he refers to as 'delimited' thir.gs), but rather must consider

all things absobtcly, it cannot investigate its own principles before considering

the common principles under which all the things-that-arc, presumably includ­ing itself, fall .24 We might assume that it is orly after discovering the principles

under which all things fall universally that wisdom is able to pursue its own pe­culiar principles--if indeed it has peculiar principles. In order to advance upon

the common principles, wisdom considers and contemplates the universal ac­

cidents, the properties that all the things-that-are possess. The rationale for this

is that wisdom relates to the things-that-are in the same way that sight does to

visible objects. What is the analogy doing? Ps-Archytas is not especially clear, and Iamblichus supplements the slightly obscure ac.count with his own peculiar interpretation; by investigating the accidents that inhere in all the things-that-arc,

Iamblichus says, wisdom contemplates 'according to kinds and simple apprehen­

sions' -the latter of which appears nowhere in ps-Archytas' text and represents an

attempt by Iamblichus to make sense of the analogy between wisdom's contem­

plation of beings and sight's grasping of visible objects. But ps-Archytas doesn't

really say this: he seems to be saying, rather, that the approach wisdom takes to

its objects, as the approach of sight to its own objects, is peculiar to each activity:

23 Initial!~; it secnu !X"sibk th.ot this phns• might refer too to human affal ... !!ut see below. 24 Again, compare ps-Archyt., On th~ UniV<rStd Logos/On tht C~Htgr~ries 32.10-14 Thcsldf, where knowledge start! from 'delimited things' but proceeds to 'infinities'.

Comm. Hum. Lin. Vol. 132 33

it is appropriate fo r wisdom to study what is universal in all things, just as it is appropriate to sight to study what is visible in visible objects. 25 The appeal to iogoi (which I've translated ' rationales' here) nowhere appears in the text On Wis®m either, and represents means by which Iamblichus can translate ps-Archytas' ac­

count of contemplation through wisdom into an exhortation to both theoretical

investigation and practical intelligence ('in accordance with reason and intelli­

gence'). It appears that ps-Archytas' lack of clarity about the relation of wisdom to

phrontsis supplies Iamblichus with an opportunity to make important correc­tions, and one gets the sneaking suspicion that lamblichus' selection of portions of ps-Archytas' On Wisdom is quite intentional, and directed towards his own

project of developing a robust account of the coherence of theoretical and practi­

cal knowledge within earlier Pythagorean protreptic texts. Indeed, we have what

appears to be evidence of a portion of ps-Archytas' treatise that Iamblichus has ptZJs~d over in silence: it comes in the fo rm of a fragment from the Pythagorean

pseudepigrapha, quoted by Stobaeus, by someone called 'Perictione'. 26 This au­thor is closely connected with ps-Archytas. since, as we will see, portions of her

work are near exact copies of the fragments of ps-Archytas' On W.tsdom:

Geometry. then, arithmetic, and th~ other theoretical sciences are concerned with the things-that-art, but wisdom (sophia} i.s concerned with all the gmmt (gent} of things-that-are. For wisdom re/aus to all the things-that-art in the same way as sight dotJ to all the thin?J that are sun, and hearing does to all thin?J heard. With rtgllrd to the accidmts (ta sumbebakota.l to the thin?J-that-art, some univmally (katho/i} apply to all things, otherr to the majority. and othm to each individual (hm hekaston}. Iherefim, to romider and contemp/au the accidents of all thin?J univerrally is proper to wisdom; of the majority of things to natural science {peri phusin epistimi}; and of per se individuals (ta idia kath' hekaston) to the srimce

of what is drlimittd (ptri ti aphorismmon episthne). Hmct, wisdom discovers thr principles of all thi.Jgs-that-are; natural scimce discowrs the principla of things that come-tv-be naturally; and geometry. arithmetic, and music discover the prin~ cipks that conc~rn quantity and the harmonious.

Ps-Perictione's fragment concludes with exacrly the same passage of text that, as we will see, introduces the conclusion of ps-Arch.ytas' treatise On Wisdom, which could lead one to speculate (a) that ps-Archytas has copied portions of ps-Perictione; (b) that ps-Pericrione has copied portions of ps-Archytas, and the intervening portion preserves what Iamblichus has left out in his analysis; (c) that ps-Perictione has preserved a portion of ps-Archyras, but the portion that comes befure in this fragment represents a modification, or an ;:daptation, of what the author originally found; or (d) the suggestion favored by scholars, that the frag­ments of ps-Archytas were erroneously assigned to Perictione by later copyists, which is made more likely by the fact that the ocher fragments associated with this name are in Ionic. 27 1he first hypothesis, advocated by Sarah Pomeroy,28 does not account for the philosophical importance of ps-Archytas within the broader reception-histcory of the Pythagorean pseudepigrapha-he occupies a place ei­ther primaCJ· or secondary to ps-Ocellus and is known relatively early on within the tradition (at the latest Theon of Smyrna and Philo of Alexandria, but then Hippolyrus, Porphyry, Iamblichus, Dexippu~ . Themistius, etc.), whereas ps-Per­ictione only appears as an addition to the fragment in Srobaeus, and has no inde­pendent historiographical tradition v.rithin the writings of the Neop~othagorcans and Neoplatonists. The latter three hypothe.;es all pcint in the s.ame direction: that ps-Perictione's fragment preserves what came between what lamblichus cited in Fragment 4 and the conclusion of ps-Archyras' work, in Fragment 5. Internal similarities in vocabulary suggest that·ps-Perictione is employing the same con­

cepts as ps-Archytas, which would lend credence to the notion that the fragment really is just assigned by Stobaeus, or a copyist, incorrectly to Perictione. Either way, we have what appears to be good evidence for what ps-Archytas said in the interim between Fragment 4 and the concluiing Fragment 5.

If this int-:rpretation is right, then we can see with greater precision what ps-Archytas in On Wisdom thought the proper objects of wisdom were, and the

27

Comm. Hum. Lict. Vol. 132 35

difference between wisdom and the two types of scientific investigation (note that he does nor expressly call wisdom a 'science', as other Plaronists, such as Aicinous, do).29 Ps-Archytas begins by claiming that the mathematical sciences, such as geometry and arithmetic, as well as the 'other theoretical sciences', deal with the things-that-are, but wisdom alone pursues the genera (gml} under which the things-that-are fall. He also further explains what he has previously said about accidents, which wasn't wholly clear. Wisdom is the consideration and contem­plation of universal accidents, whereas natural science (peri phusin ~pistiml} is

the consideration and contemplation of accidents that occur in tht majority of cam (and it discovers the principles of things subject to generation), and finally 'delimited' science (pm ti aph6rismmon tpistiml) considers and contemplates the accidents that occur in per u individuals (and here, ps-Archytas interestingly notes that this science, which employs mathematics, discovers the principles of quantity and things that are harmonious).

To my knowledge, this differentiation of theoretical activity into three­wisdom, which contemplates the kinds of things-that-are universally and dis­covers their principles; natural science, which contemplates the accide~ts thar occur most of the time and discovers the principles of generated objecrs; and 'delimited' science, which contemplates the accidents that happen in per se indi­viduals, by which he means the objects of mathematics, or things that possessed a specific 'quantity' (it is unclear what he means here---geometrical shapes?), and that possessed 'harmony', by which ps-Archytas might mean things like 'virtue', 'justice', and 'health', which in the Pythagorean system of the Hellenistic period were considered subject to harmony3<'-is unique in ancient philosophy. It shares no direct relationship with the other pselidepigrapha attributed to Archytas, al­though it is possible that the author may have been adapting from Archytas' own works, or from someone who had 'Peripateticized' Archytas' fragments by break­

ing them down doxographically into the system that the:!' were taken to repre­sent. 31 But such a division into triplets is common in the writings of the Middle

Platonists-both their own, and those doxographical works that spoke about Py­thagorean systems-as well as the Pythagorean pseudepigrapha. It is perhaps best

~ Alcin. dclines 'wisdom' (Didaslt. 152.5-6) as 'science of divine and human af&irs'. 30 Aa:ording ro Alcx. Polyh. (4J>. D. L 8.33), Pythagotas held thar the things that are subjccr eo harmony are virtue, health, chc cntin: good, and God'. 31 Them. a.tg~~ed against Iamb., believing that the •uthor of thc.c teXts was a Peripatetic who used the name 'Archytas' in order to confer authority to his own work (Boethius, in Aristot. Cat. 162aMigne).

36 HORKY, Pseudo-Archytas' Protreprics?

compared with the tripanite division of'theoretical knowledge' by Alcinous into

.a similar grouping (Didaska/ikos 153.43-154.5): the theological, which deds with

unmoved and primary causes; the natural, which deals with the motions of the

heavenly bodies, especially their risings and failings; and the mathematical, which

deals with those sons of things subject to mathematical sciences. Alcinous and

ps-Archytas don't line up exactly the same, but they do show similar inclinations.

Once we arrive at the final conclusion, Iarnblichus has us return to the im·

age of the: chario teer riding aloft and reaching the vista chat- makes possibl: intel­

lectual sight of reality, which he employed as a framing device in order eo show

the conclusion of his treatment of famous dicta of Pythagoras, and to introduce

his account of 'esoteric, i.e. scientific' exhortation (ProtrqJticus 4.22.16-24.13 Pistdli):

Thererore, at the end (of Archytas' work], his advice rises to me highest peak, in the following way:

7herefore, whoever is abk to reduce all the genem under one and the same

principlt and, again, synthesize and calculate thmr, he seems to me to be the wimt

and absolutely truest. And ~t he will abo discover a good lookout position, from

which he will be abk to beho/J god and all thing~ that ha~ been assigned to his column and order; a-•• d furnishing himself with this charioteer's path, he will set

out and arrive at the end of the coune, connecting .the beginningr (arr:has) with the conclusions {pt;-asi), and finding out why god is the beginning, end, and mitl4/e

of aU thinp-that-are defined in accowhnce with justice and right reason (orthos

logos). (ps-Archytas, On Wudom Fragment 5 = 44.31-45.4 Thesleff]

So dearly here too he has set down the end of the_meological exhortation,

not minking it right to stop at a pluralit;· of principles, i.e. of all the kinds of

being, but rather eo reduce enthusiastically er~rything under on~ and the same

print:iplt, and dividing from the sin.gle One according eo a definite number

me things approximating the One, and in mis war always investigating the

things-mat-are furmer removed and sepa.rared, until the plurality may be caku­lat~d together fur me synth~tic things, i.e. mose that are composed our of many

things; and ~· proceeding in bom directions he is sufficient to ascend from rhe

plurality to the One, and to descend from the One to the plurality.

But since we especially pursue truth and wisdom, h: says, exhoning to

this son of science, mat the wis~st and a!mJ!ttul:J truest person is the one who

has this kind of science of division through the first rorms and kinds, draw·

ing these together in.to the One by way of the scien.ce of definition, and bein.g

contemplative of me One, which is an end of all theory. And he introduces a

Comm. Hum. Litt. Vol. 132

good still more aumoritative than this, namdy to be able as if from a lookout

position to bcholci. god and all thing~ that haw been assigned ro god. For if god

is in charge of all trum and success, substance and cause and the principles,

then one should e~peci'ally put effort in this to acquiring that science by which

someone will gaze at what is itself pur~ and by which he will discover a wide

passage to it, and by which he will connect the ends with the principlel;. For

mis kind of life and success is most perfect, no longer ddinirel:· distinguishing

the final things from me first ones but rather grasping together the thin.g> col·

lectcd into one, keeping together both principles and end and middle alike. For

the divine cause is this kind of thing, to which should cling mosc who intend

to be successful. Now men, this is how me exhortation proceeds all the way

mrougb everything both in us and in nature and, so to speak, through all the

beings, and sums up by way of conclusion all the approaches towards the single

ascent that reaches up to god.

Ps-Archytas' text concludes with an appeal to the person who is 'wisest and ab·

solucely truest', i.e. the person who is able to practice all three sorts of theoretical

activity referred to in the ps·Perictione fragment (which ps-Archytas calls 'reduc­

tion of the genera to one and the sam e principle', 'synthesizing', and 'calculat­

ing' , respectivdy) .32 Such a sophotatos and alithertatos will also find a vista, from

which to see god, and all the things that fall under his 'column and order' (by

which apparently ps-Archytas means the 'good' column in the 'table of con traries'

mentioned by Aristotle in the Maaphysics and known to ps-Philolaus) .33 There

is a distinctly logical fiavor to his account of the charioteer, whereby ps-Archytas

claims that the charioteer's path, which is presumably in a circle, will lead him to

draw together first principles with conclusions, thus discovering the reason why

god, for the Pythagoreans, is the beginning, middle, and end of all things-that­

are defined according to justice and right reason.~4 1he philosophical activic;· of

38 HORKY, Pseudo-A.rchytas' Protreptics?

three aspects of theoretical reasoning: reduction of classes of intelligible objects to establish basic definitions on which to establish proofs; some sort of syllogistic synthesis of first, last, and middle terms; and mathematical calculation of the relationship between composite intelligible objects (through arithmetic, geom­etry, or harmonics). Interestingly, the final appeal to 'justice' here, a Pythagorean watchword, might be thought to point towards practical intelligence-if so, this would be the only evidence in the entirety of ps-Arch;'ta.S' treatise that survives of any focus on the value of theoretical inquiry for practical intelligence. But even Iamblichus doesn't make this move; instead he focuses on how such th.eoretical procedures allow one to move from the Many upwards to the One, and back down again to the Many. Such a procedure proceeds, so Iamblichus' exhortation

states, to happiness and success in life. Apropos of the appeal in the final fragment of ps-Archytas, it is time for

us to allow our collective chariot to pause at a plateau and consider how we can bring all this information together. It is clear that, despite the lengths to which Iamblichus will go to try to influence his reader's interpretation, ps-Archytas' On Wisdom is not a protreptic text, at l~t in the sense that protreptic texts aim to exhort youn~ people to a certain v!ay of life that will help them to obtain the goods that will encourage them to live happily or successfully. 35 This is because the text, as it stands, does not obviously refer to the Pythagorean 'way of life', as, for example, Aristotle does, but rather focuses on explaining axiologically hov.• human beings are born for the sake of contemplating the rational systt:m that gives order to the nature of things (Fragment 3), which they do by way of theo­retical investigation through wisdom. Humans, so ps-A.rchytas argues (Fragment 2), have been gifted certain instruments for thinking and for communication, so

that they might be able to perform their cosmic roles as exegetes of the system of universal reason, which has been imprinted upon them, and which can be understood owing to the guarantee of language, which also bears the imprint

of universal reason. Wtsdom, in particular, which deals with the kinds of things that are and are universally subject to such kinds, seeks to expose the intelligence that gives order to the things-that-are (Fragments 3 and 4). Two other types of theoretical reasoning arc mentioned (Fragment 5): natural science, which deals

with the attributes that most real things have, discovers the first principles of generated objects; and 'delimited' science, which deals with the attributes of per se individuals, discovers the principles that give complex real objects their unique

mathematical attributes. The wisest and truest person will be he who is able to master all three parts of theoretical reasoning (Fragment 6), which, according to

ps-Archyta;, allows him to see th.~ things that fall under the column of god, and to discover the ultimate' reason why god is the beginning, middle, and end of all things. Such a proposal is, to my knowledge, unique in antiquity, and it would require much more work to see whether, beyond the value it held for Iamblichus, we might be able to see reflections of this work in other Middle and Neoplatonist authors. Even if we canno~ ultimately admit ps-Archytas' On Wisdom to the cor­pus of ancient protreptic texts, it still represents one of the longest, and best sus­tained, analyses of theoretical reasoning in ancient philosophy, expanding upon tropes that were first developed as such by Aristotle in his Nicomachean Ethics and Metaphysics- the differentiation of theoretical from other forms of reasoning and the function argument-but with a unique 'Pythagorean' twist.

•This piece is dedicated to Holger Thesldf, whose scholarship ha.s shone :IS a beacon to 9.-hich much

of my own r=nh has striven. Hence, it is apropos that I treat the topic of ancient pmtreptics

in the ~.orcan uadition here. This paper has benefited significandy from the audience at the

the upper leve.l of reality, the Forms fulfil this role through the familiar if con­troversial process of instantiation. 20 Their place in the upper level presents only a soft chorismor balanced by a koinonia of sons as r~ecred, for example, in the divided line (Rtpub/ic6,509d-511e) and in the ladder oflovc (Symposium 209e-212a). Other bridges include 'philosophy at large and dialectic in particular' with the 'Philosoph~r· serving, more or less playfully, as a "'daimonic" intermediate' between the two levels (1999, 33 [ .. 2009, 417]). Yet Theslcff nominates the Forms as the 'most explicit, ambitious and famous' of Plato's 'attempts to bridge the levels and explicate their internal relations' (1999, 33 [ .. 2009, 418]).

In the final analysis, no matter what Thesleff says, there will still be room for disagreement on both the existence and the nature of Forms, not to mention the meaning of existence, that is, its proper definition and explication. Thcsleff has not, to my knowledge, deciphered the meaning of existence in any sense, unless

he has been keeping it to himself But he has clarified the nature of Plato's Forms at least to my satisfaction. And this hdps decide Vlhat to say about the existence of Forms.

Ultimatc:ly, maybe secretly, we all mean thl" same thing when we assc:rt or deny the existence of something even if we disagree when we rake up existence as a philosophical topic of its own.

What is most exciting about Thesleff's approach is that it expands our un­derstanding of the existence of Forms, telling us how they exist if they exist. He is generously forthcoming about what this includes, what it does not, and what difference it makes.

Do the Forms really exist? We are still allowed to disagree about that. But not so much about why they exist, how they exist, ar.d where they exist. Perhaps most important, we now know what to make of a world-indeed, only one--in which they do exist.
