'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Proclus (a.d.}} 410-485)'''. Chief representative of the later Neo-Platonists, born at Constantinople. Attended at Athens the lectures of Plutarch and Syrianus, and about 405 succeeded the latter in the chair of philosophy—hence his surname Diadochus. Incured the hatred of the Christians and took refuge in Asia Minor, returning later to Athens where he remained until his death. His great literary activity was chiefly devoted to the elucidation of the writings of Plato. | |||
