Opis

Written from a Continental perspective, "Retracing the Platonic Text" reveals dimensions of the dialogues that are not addressed by traditional philosophy. These essays by prominent scholars focus on the texts' literary elements, in particular challenges to contemporary interpretations of the Platonic dialogue as a whole. The result illustrates the depth of Platonic thought and the debt of all philosophy to it. "Retracing the Platonic Text "is a pioneering effort in demonstrating how Continental philosophy both reflects and expands upon Greek philosophy.
