Plato and Xenophon: Comparative Studies
Plato and Xenophon are the two students of Socrates whose works have come down to us in their entirety. Their works have been studied by countless scholars over the generations; but rarely have they been brought into direct contact, outside of their use in relation to the Socratic problem. This volume changes that, by offering a collection of articles containing comparative analyses of almost the entire range of Plato's and Xenophon's writings, a…
Plato and Xenophon
The Cambridge Companion to Socrates
The Cambridge Companion to Socrates is a collection of essays providing a comprehensive guide to Socrates, the most famous Greek philosopher. Because Socrates himself wrote nothing, our evidence comes from the writings of his friends (above all Plato), his enemies, and later writers. Socrates is thus a literary figure as well as a historical person. Both aspects of Socrates' legacy are covered in this volume. Socrates' character is full of parado…
The Utopian Character of Plato’s Ideal City
Whether or to what degree Plato's Republic is a utopian work depends on what one means by "utopia," a word with a notoriously wide range of meanings. I shall simply stipulate that by "utopia" I mean a description of an imagined society put forward by its author as better than any existing society, past or present. The limiting case (relevant to the Republic) is the portrayal not just of a better society but of the best society. I call a "mere uto…
The Happiness of the City and the Happiness of the Individual in Plato’s Republic
Some Central Elements of Socratic Political Theory
The fundamental concepts of Socratic political theory are statesmanship or the art of politics, and the good of the city. Important scholars have denied that, on Socrates’ view, statesmanship as such is possible. But Socratic intellectualism does not commit him to the view that the methods of politics, such as legislation and punishment, are useless. The Socratic tradition in political theory is rich and varied. Among the dimensions of variation …
On the Alleged Historical Reliability of Plato’s Apology
L'A. mesure l'historicite de l'«Apologie» de Platon a partir de son contexte et de ses caracteristiques litteraires, en reference aux arguments de C. Kahn et G. Vlastos, d'une part, et a partir d'une comparaison des sources du contenu doctrinal de la philosophie socratique, en reference a K. Doring, d'autre part.

The Evidence for Degrees of Being in Aristotle
The topic of degrees of being in Aristotle is almost universally ignored. A very few scholars do discuss the topic or make use of it in passing. This situation mightbe explained by a scholarly consensus that (a) Aristotle did have a doctrine ofdegrees of being, but (b) this doctrine is too uninteresting to be worth much discussion. Conversation with a number of scholars from several countries has convinced me, however, that a rather different con…
