Plato on Knowledge and Reality
A complete and unified account of Plato's epistemology ...scholarly, historically sensitive, and philosophically sophisticated. Above all it is sensible...White's strength is that he places Plato's preoccupation in careful historical perspective, without belittling the intrinsic difficulties of the problems he tackled...White's project is to find a continuous argument running through Plato's various attacks on epistemological problems.

Céline Grenaud-Tostain and Olivier Lumbroso have brought together sixteen wonderful essays by a range of scholars, largely based in France, who all turn, in ingenious and diverse ways, towards the plurality of ‘naturalismes’ promised in the playful interrogation of the collection’s title. This range spans from many of the doyens of the field to the most exciting doctoral researchers, and the sense that lingers is one of the sheer vitality of this…
Against Nature
‘It will be the biggest fiasco of the year - but I don't care a damn! It will be something nobody has ever done before, and I shall have said what I had to say.’ As Joris -Karl Huysmans announced in 1884, Against Nature was fated to be a novel like no other.

Individual and Conflict in Greek Ethics
Individual and Conflict in Greek Ethics
Even before Hegel, philosophers opposed to Kant's dualism of reason and inclination, and to other similar dualistic oppositions of morality and self‐interest, have looked to the ancient Greeks for an alternative conception of ethics and the human personality that is to be guided by it. For this purpose these philosophers fixed on Greek ethics, stressing its harmonizing eudaimonist elements and its use of the notion of virtue. This book argues to …
Harmonizing Plato
Conflicting Parts of Happiness in Aristotle's Ethics
Plato's metaphysical epistemology
For some time philosophers have thought of epistemology and metaphysics as different branches of philosophy, investigating, respectively, what can be known and the basic properties and nature of what there is. It is hard, though, to see any genuine boundary here. The issues irresistibly overlap. Certainly in Plato there is no such divide. His views about what there is are largely controlled by ideas about how knowledge can be accounted for, and h…
