Chosen Aspects of the Usage of the Term Phronesis in Iamblichus' Work Protreptikos

The paper is divided into two main thematic parts. The first part aims at basic characteristics of Neoplatonism in general with an attempt to point out the place of Iamblichean thought in the system of later Neoplatonism and to put the light on several innovative ideas which had been brought by him into the philosophy of Neoplatonism. The second part involves bilingual translation of selected excerpts from his work The Exhortation to Philosophy in order to scrutinize the usage and meaning of the term φρόνησις.
