First Modern Translation
Only antiquated translations exist. This is the first modern English translation.
The Greek text of Proclus' 'Theologia Platonica' was completely translated into English by Thomas Taylor in 1816. While this translation has been reprinted (e.g., in 1985), it remains an antiquated 19th-century version. Search results identified a modern translation of the 'Prolegomenon' (chapters 1-7 of Book I) from 2014, but no complete modern scholarly translation of all six books was found. The associated works by Michael Psellos, such as 'On the Operation of Demons', were also translated in the 19th century (Collisson, 1843).
