  • Killing Socrates

    Open AccessC J Rowe, Christopher RoweARTICLEThe Journal of Hellenic Studies2001

    The paper has two main aims, one larger and one slightly narrower. The larger aim is to undermine further a tendency that has dogged the interpretation of Platonic political philosophy in modern times, despite some dissenting voices: the tendency to begin from the assumption that Plato's thinking changed and developed over time, as if we already had privileged access to his biography. The slightly narrower aim is to reply to two charges of intell…

  • The argument and structure of Plato's Phaedrus

    Open AccessC J Rowe, Christopher RoweARTICLEProceedings of the Cambridge…1986

    The Phaedrus falls by design into two distinct movements. The first movement includes three set speeches, one a written speech which claims to be by Lysias, the other two given impromptu by Socrates; the second then uses these speeches as the basis for a general discussion of rhetoric and of the value of writing as a medium of communication and teaching. Whatever else we may want to say about the structure of the dialogue, this much is clear enou…

  • ‘Archaic thought’ in Hesiod

    Open AccessC J Rowe, Christopher RoweARTICLEThe Journal of Hellenic Studies1983

    It is ‘commonly asserted’, says G. S. Kirk, and ‘almost universally assumed’, that Hesiod came ‘at the point of transition from mythopoeic to rational modes of thought’. H. Diller gives this ‘common assertion’ a more precise meaning: Hesiod represents ‘a bridge from mythical to philosophical thought (my emphasis). This view of Hesiod is justified in various different ways. Diller himself stresses the contrast Hesiod makes in the prooemion to the …

  • Knowledge, Perception and Memory

    Open AccessC J Rowe, Christopher Rowe et al.ARTICLEThe Classical Quarterly1982References: 1

    At Theaetetus 163d-164b Socrates objects to the thesis that knowledge is perception by pointing out that a man who has seen something can still remember it, and so has knowledge of it; but this is impossible, if knowledge is perception, since he is no longer perceiving it.To this Protagoras is made to reply with two sentences at 166b 1–4: .Cornford translates ‘ For instance, do you think you will find anyone to admit that one's present memory of …

  • The Proof from Relatives in the Peri Ideon

    C J Rowe, Christopher RoweARTICLEPhronesis1979

    In this paper I consider three recent attempts to reconstruct the Platonist argument Ex Tx.v -np6os vT preserved for us by Alexander from Aristotle's Peri ideon: G. E. L. Owen, 'A Proof in the Per ideon', JHS 77(1957) 103-111; 1 W. Leszl, II 'de ideis' di Aristotele e la teoria platonica delle idee, Florence 1975, 185-224; and R. Barford, 'A Proof from the Peri Ideon revisited', Phronesis 21 (1976) l98-219.2 Of these three, Owen and Leszl are bro…

  • Aims and Methods in Aristotle's Politics

    Open AccessC J Rowe, Christopher RoweARTICLEThe Classical Quarterly1977Cited by: 5

    This paper originated in an attempt to come to terms with the problems which arise from the structure of the Politics . It is no news to anyone who has the slightest familiarity with the Politics that the work reads, to borrow a phrase of Barker's, not as a composition, but as composite. Broadly speaking, it falls into three parts: Books I–III, Books IV-VI, and Books VII-VIII
