Plato: Laws 10: Translated with an Introduction and Commentary
ISBN: 9780199225965 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Laws is Plato's last and longest dialogue.

ISBN: 9780199241422 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

These penetrating studies show that the literary structure of the dialogues is of vital importance in the ongoing interpretation of Plato.
