"The Golden Verses of Pythagoras" by Antoine Fabre d'Olivet is a philosophical work that delves into the moral and spiritual teachings attributed to the ancient philosopher Pythagoras, likely written in the early 19th century. This text also includes Fabre d'Olivet's interpretations and translations, focusing on the essence and structure of poetry and how they relate to the wisdom of Pythagorean doctrine. The exploration of ancient wisdom and the relationship between poetry and divine understanding form the core of its content. The opening of the book presents a foreword by the translator, Nayán Louise Redfield, which reflects on Fabre d'Olivet's scholarly life and the context in which he engaged with Pythagorean teachings. It establishes the significance of Pythagoras's "Golden Verses" as a moral guide and touches upon the allegorical nature of poetry, as interpreted by both Fabre d’Olivet and Plato. As it introduces the author's intention to explore the essence of poetry and its spiritual implications, the text sets the stage for a deeper examination of philosophical ideas intertwined with poetic expressions, emphasizing the pursuit of wisdom through understanding.
