Start with Plato, then read up on the neo-Platonists. As for true rationalists, it is a hard category because there is overlap, but I'd included Aquinas and DesCartes too.

Gordon Clark's Thales to Dewey is a good place to start. I haven't completely read Sproul's book The Consequences of Ideas, but it looks like it would give a helpful background too.
