In Plotinus on Love, Alberto Bertozzi argues that love is the origin, culmination, and regulative force of the double movement that characterizes Plotinus' metaphysics: the derivation of all reality from the One and the return of the soul to it.
Contents:

The derivation of all reality from the one as erotic procession
