Iamblichus' Life of Pythagoras, or Pythagoric Life / Accompanied by Fragments of the Ethical Writings of certain Pythagoreans in the Doric dialect; and a collection of Pythagoric Sentences from Stobaeus and others, which are omitted by Gale in his Opuscula Mythologica, and have not been noticed by any editor

The text presents a detailed ancient biography of Pythagoras, recounting his life, teachings, reputed miracles, and philosophical doctrines. It traces his ethical and communal practices, musical and mathematical theories—especially the primacy of number and harmony—belief in soul transmigration, and pedagogical methods for moral reform. Numerous anecdotes illustrate his reputed mastery over animals and memory of past lives. The volume also compiles fragments and sententious sayings from Pythagorean authors in the Doric dialect and selections from later anthologies, offering practical maxims, ethical precepts, and doctrinal fragments that illuminate Pythagorean thought and its ritual, mathematical, and moral dimensions.
