Socrates Dissatisfied: An Analysis of Plato's Crito
ISBN: 9780195116847 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In Socrates Dissatisfied, Weiss argues against the prevailing view that the Laws are Socrates' spokesmen. She reveals and explores many indications that Socrates and the Laws are, both in style and substance, adversaries: whereas the Laws are rhetoricians who defend the absolute authority of the Laws, Socrates is a dialectician who defends--in the Crito no less than in the Apology--the overriding claim of each individual's own reason when assiduously applied to questions of justice. It is only for the sake of an unphilosophical Crito, Weiss suggests, that Socrates...

Virtue in the Cave: Moral Inquiry in Plato's Meno
ISBN: 9780739132180 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Virtue in the Cave is a study of Plato's Meno. Taking the dialogue's central theme to be the question of what virtue is, this book explores the limits of moral inquiry. It argues that, unlike mathematical problems that can be resolved definitively, and unlike technical enterprises whose success can be objectively assessed, moral matters can be only tentatively settled by reasoned argument--at least in the material world to which we all are confined. Whereas Meno is not satisfied with an inquiry whose final result falls short of knowledge, Socrates sees value in joint moral investigation that...

Philosophers in the Republic: Plato's Two Paradigms
ISBN: 9781501704420 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In Plato's Republic, Socrates contends that philosophers make the best rulers because only they behold with their mind's eye the eternal and purely intelligible Forms of the Just, the Noble, and the Good. When, in addition, these men and women are endowed with a vast array of moral, intellectual, and personal virtues and are appropriately educated, surely no one could doubt the wisdom of entrusting to them the governance of cities. Although it is widely and reasonably assumed that all the Republic s philosophers are the same, Roslyn Weiss argues in this boldly original book that...

The Socratic Paradox and Its Enemies
ISBN: 9780226891736 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In The Socratic Paradox and Its Enemies, Roslyn Weiss argues that the Socratic paradoxes--no one does wrong willingly, virtue is knowledge, and all the virtues are one--are best understood as Socrates' way of combating sophistic views: that no one is willingly just, those who are just and temperate are ignorant fools, and only some virtues (courage and wisdom) but not others (justice, temperance, and piety) are marks of true excellence.
In Weiss's view, the paradoxes express Socrates' belief that wrongdoing fails to yield the happiness that all people want; it is therefore... In The Socratic Paradox and Its Enemies, Roslyn Weiss argues that the Socratic paradoxes--no one does wrong willingly, virtue is knowledge, and...

Virtue in the Cave: Moral Inquiry in Plato's Meno
ISBN: 9780195140767 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In this radical new interpretation of Plato's Meno, Roslyn Weiss exposes the farcical nature of the slave-boy-demonstration and challenges the widely held assumption that the Meno introduces "Platonic" metaphysical and epistemological innovations into an otherwise "Socratic" dialogue. She shows that the Meno is intended as a defense not of all inquiry but of moral inquiry alone, and that it locates the validity of Socratic method in its ability to arrive not at moral knowledge but at the far more modest moral true belief. Through a careful, and provocative, reading of Plato's Meno, Weiss...

Socrates Dissatisfied: An Analysis of Plato's Crito
ISBN: 9780742513228 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) For whom do the personified Laws in the latter part of the Crito speak? Who is it in the dialogue who demands of the citizen utter submission to whatever the city bids whether right or wrong, just or unjust? If it is Socrates for whom the Laws speak and if it is he who sets the city's commands above the considered moral judgement of the individual, what, one must wonder, has become of the radically independent Socrates of the Apologywho defiantly resists calls to injustice regardless of their source? In Socrates Dissatisfied, Weiss argues against the prevailing view that the Laws are...
