Plethon the First Philhellene: Re-enacting the Antiquity

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Plethon's impact on western philosophy has two major features: he inspired a complex attitude toward ancient wisdom, and lives on in the myth that Ficino's philosophy of religion drew upon Plethon's initiative to re-found ancient theology. This paper focuses on the first aspect, namely the specific attitude towards the past. That is to say that Plethon initiated a new awareness of past history. Plethon's Hellenism is more than familiarity with the past of the Greeks, it is an '-ism' about Greece, a newattitude; and in that sense, Plethon as "the last of the Hellenes", as Woodhouse had it, is also the first Philhellene. The paper will outline some main features of 18th/19th-century Philhellenism and then show their presence in the early reception of Plethon: the desire to appropriate and invent ancient glory in one's present time already characterized the fame of Plethon from the very beginning.
