The Tragedy of the Athenian Ideal in Thucydides and Plato, written by John T. Hogan
What is the relation of Thucydides to Plato, if any?In The Tragedy of the Athenian Ideal in Thucydides and Plato, John Hogan approaches Thucydides and Plato as likeminded theorists of the Athenian democracy and of political life altogether.Although Plato never mentions Thucydides by name, dialogues such as the Menexenus, Laches, Symposium, and Alcibiades I suggest Plato's familiarity with -if not his careful study of -Thucydides' work.Just as Thu…
Entangling Plato
Political theorists have increasingly sought to place Plato in active dialogue with democracy ancient and modern by examining what S.

Recently, however, political theorists have recast equity as the virtue of a sympathetic democratic citizen. I build on this literature by offering a more precise explanation of equity’s internal structure and political significance. In particular, I reveal equity’s deliberative dimension. For Aristotle, equitable citizens, statesmen, and leg…
