Eclecticism was very interesting to me. I felt like it solved a lot of problems other Hellenistic philosophers had. However, it was somewhat stagnate with innovative ideas. I feel like at this time period we are still in a eclectic age. It made sense that it evolved during a sterile time period where schools oh philosophy were not present. Ethical polarization was probably the bright spot in their philosophy. All throughout Hellenistic philosophy the metaphysical world view and the ethical world view were very much disconnected. Eclecticism demonstrated how influential it was to philosophy when Plotinus emerged. It is evident in his philosophy when he explains the three hypo-stasis, which I am still very confused on. So far, i can agree with it, but im still going to need further explanation and elaboration on the theory before i can form a complete opinion.
