Plato’s Cosmology and Its Ethical Dimensions
The thesis of this provocative book is that the cosmological doctrines of the late dialogues are immensely relevant to the development of Plato's ethical views. The universe at large is a divine rational and teleological agent that serves as a model for emulation, and it is through their emulation of it that humans may become virtuous and happy. As a model, the universe is available to all humans, and so Platonic happiness is no longer confined t…
Plato's Cosmology and its Ethical Dimensions
Although a great deal has been written on Plato's ethics, his cosmology has not received so much attention in recent times and its importance for his ethical thought has remained underexplored. By offering accounts of Timaeus, Philebus, Politicus and Laws X, the book reveals a strongly symbiotic relation between the cosmic and human sphere. It is argued that in his late period Plato presents a picture of an organic universe, endowed with structur…
Mind and Body in Late Plato
In this paper I re-examine the status of the mind-body relation in several of Plato’s late dialogues. A range of views has been attributed to Plato here. For example, it has been thought that Plato is a substance dualist, for whom the mind can exist independently of the body; or an attribute dualist, who has left behind the strong dualistic commitments of the Phaedo by allowing that the mind may be the subject of spatial movements. But even in ca…
Creation in the Timaeus
Calculating Machines or Leaky Jars? The Moral Psychology of Plato’s Gorgias
In this essay I propose to address a putative tension in the Gorgias between what has sometimes been called ‘ Socratic intellectualism’ on the one hand, and the concession that the soul may have irrational motivations on the other. Common interpretations of this phenomenon have consisted in taking the Gorgias as a transitional dialogue, the ‘Socratic intellectualism’ part of it portraying the views of the historical Socrates (and/or Plato’s earli…

Hedonism and the Pleasureless Life in Plato's Philebus
This paper re-evaluates the role that Plato confers to pleasure in the Philebus. According to leading interpretations, Plato there downplays the role of pleasure, or indeed rejects hedonism altogether. Thus, scholars such as D. Frede have taken the "mixed life" of pleasure and intelligence initially submitted in the Philebus to be conceded by Socrates only as a remedial good, second to a life of neutral condition, where one would experience no pl…
