THE ATLAS OF THE ONE AND THE MANY

Plotinus opens his school in Rome

Rome, 244
nature
After eleven years with Ammonius and a failed expedition east with the emperor Gordian — meant to reach the philosophers of Persia and India — Plotinus settles in Rome and teaches there for a quarter-century.

The tradition's starting gun. Note the failed journey: the man who shaped the West's picture of the ascent was trying to go and ask the East first.
