Alcinous

Alcinous was a Greek philosopher of the Middle Platonist movement, active probably in the 2nd century CE. He is the author of the 'Didaskalikos' (often translated 'Handbook of Platonism'), a concise summary of Platonic doctrine in physics, ethics, and logic that became an important guide to how Plato was read in later antiquity. Almost nothing is known of his life.
