Gorgiasby MobileReference
MobileReference.com 2008; US$ 3.99This is an electronic edition of the complete book complemented by author biography. ******************. Gorgias is an important Socratic Dialogue in which Plato sets the rhetorician, whose specialty is persuasion, in opposition to the philosopher, whose specialty is dissuasion, or refutation. The art of persuasion was necessary for political and legal advantage in classical Athens, and rhetoricians promoted themselves as teachers of this fundamental skill. Some, like Gorgias, were foreigners attracted to Athens because of its reputation for intellectual and cultural sophistication. ? Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. more...
Parmenidesby MobileReference
MobileReference.com 2008; US$ 3.99This is an electronic edition of the complete book complemented by author biography. ******************. Parmenides is one of the dialogues of Plato. It is perhaps Plato''s most challenging dialogue, as well as one of the most challenging works of philosophy ever written. The Parmenides purports to be an account of a meeting between the two great philosophers of the Eleatic school, Parmenides and Zeno of Elea, and a very young Socrates. The occasion of the meeting was the reading by Zeno of his treatise defending Parmenidean monism against those partisans of plurality who asserted that Parmenides'' supposition that there is a one gives rise to intolerable absurdities and contradictions. ?

Phaedrusby MobileReference
MobileReference.com 2008; US$ 3.99This is an electronic edition of the complete book complemented by author biography. ******************. The Phaedrus, written by Plato, is a dialogue between Plato''s main protagonist, Socrates, and Phaedrus, an interlocutor in several dialogues. The Phaedrus was presumably composed around 370 BC, around the same time as Plato''s Republic and Symposium; with those two texts, it is often considered one of Plato''s literary high points. Although ostensibly about the topic of love, the discussion in the dialogue revolves around the art of rhetoric and how it should be practiced, and dwells on subjects as diverse as reincarnation and erotic love. ? Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. more...
The Republicby Plato; Benjamin Jowett
The Floating Press 1892; US$ 4.95The Republic is Plato's most famous work and one of the seminal texts of Western philosophy and politics. The characters in this Socratic dialogue - including Socrates himself - discuss whether the just or unjust man is happier. They are the philosopher-kings of imagined cities and they also discuss the nature of philosophy and the soul among other things. more...
The Ironic Defense of Socratesby David M. Leibowitz
Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 64.00Arrives at a controversial new interpretation of Plato's Apology of Socrates by focusing on the meaning and extent of Socratic and Platonic irony. more...
The Poetics of Philosophical Languageby Zacharoula Petraki
Walter de Gruyter 2011; US$ 165.00A close analysis of the Republic?s diverse literary styles shows how the peculiarities of verbal texture in Platonic discourse can be explained by Plato?s remolding of tropes and techniques from poetry and the Presocratics. This book argues that Plato smuggles poetic language into the Republic?s prose in order to characterize the deceitful coloration and polymorphy that accompanies the world of Becoming as opposed to the Real. Plato?s distinctive discourse thus can transmit, even to those figures focused on the visual within his Republic, the shiftiness of the base and the unjust. more...
I lessici a Platone di Timeo Sofista e Pseudo-Didimoby Stefano Valente
De Gruyter 2012;Two lexica to Plato have survived from Antiquity: the epitome of Timaeus and the so-calledPseudo-Didymus. This is the first critical edition of these lexica relying on a complete survey of their textual traditions, both direct and indirect, which are investigated in the Italian prefaces; it is also provided with an up-to-date picture of Timaeus, with an extensive inquiry into his sources and with an analysis of the mutual relationships between the two works. The critical text is provided with a threefold apparatus and detailed indexes. more...
