On the Pythagorean Life (Iamblichus)

Pythagoras

The first book of a ten-book work on Pythagoreanism. It narrates the birth, the journeys, the arrival in Croton and the speeches to youths, elders and women, describes life in the community—the five-year silence, the testing of candidates, friendship, diet, music as medicine for the soul—, lists the miracles, recounts Cylon's conspiracy and closes with a catalogue of Pythagoreans: 218 men and 17 women. It is the longest surviving source on Pythagoras.
