| ABOUT I.S.N.S. |
The mission of the International Society for Neoplatonic Studies is to promote the study of the philosophy
of Plato and its long tradition from all perspectives. Since its formation in 1973 the ISNS has grown in both
size and influence, with members now in Europe, Australia, Asia, and the Americas. Its work is broadly focused
on Plato's writings and their interpretation by his student Aristotle through to their continuing influence in
the 21st century. This includes philosophical, historical, and literary perspectives on this tradition as well
as Pagan, Christian, Jewish, Islamic and other religious interpretations. The Society organizes annual conferences
in the summer, and supports national and international conferences and various panels throughout the year.
Beginning in 2007, annual membership in
the International Society for Neoplatonic Studies includes the option of a subscription to International Journal of the Platonic Tradition, which will be published under the auspices of the Society by Brill Academic Publishers.
The following sections or chapters are currently active:
United States, Canada, United Kingdom,
Ireland, France, Spain, Poland,
and Ibero-America.
