Download or read book Outlines From Plato an Introduction to Greek Metaphysics Classic Reprint written by Frederick Percy Long and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines From Plato, an Introduction to Greek Metaphysics The author, however, admits that his original design was not to illustrate Plato. It was rather to put into Greek dress the more permanent problems of Metaphysics in all ages, and to show that the questions which to-day divide philosophers were most of them raised and debated years ago by the Greeks, with all the additional power and lucidity that their unrivalled language lent them. Such an object proved subsequently to be chimerical and, having determined to draw his illustrations of these problems from the writings of Plato, the compiler was gradually obliged to limit himself to a rudimentary exegesis of Plato. That this contains very likely many serious defects he is well aware, but he trusts that they are not of sufficient moment seriously to mislead beginners.

This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines From Plato, an Introduction to Greek Metaphysics This selection of passages is primarily intended for students of the Oxford school of Literae Humaniores, but the compiler hopes that it may also be found useful by any others who are commencing their study of Plato, on its metaphysical or logical side. Some slight experience of teaching, coupled with his own recollection of early days, has convinced him that merely to give pupils a list of references to parallel passages, bearing on any particular point under discussion, is in most cases quite inadequate. And yet no single dialogue, not even one so comprehensive as the Republic, can be understood without a knowledge of much contained elsewhere; and to know all about one involves knowing something about all. The author, however, admits that his original design was not to illustrate Plato. It was rather to put into Greek dress the more permanent problems of Metaphysics in all ages, and to show that the questions which to-day divide philosophers were most of them raised and debated years ago by the Greeks, with all the additional power and lucidity that their unrivalled language lent them.

Download or read book The Republic written by By Plato and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2019-06-15 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic is a Socratic dialogue, written by Plato around 380 BCE, concerning the definition of justice, the order and character of the just city-state and the just man. The dramatic date of the dialogue has been much debated and though it must take place some time during the Peloponnesian War, "there would be jarring anachronisms if any of the candidate specific dates between 432 and 404 were assigned". It is Plato's best-known work and has proven to be one of the most intellectually and historically influential works of philosophy and political theory. In it, Socrates along with various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether or not the just man is happier than the unjust man by considering a series of different cities coming into existence "in speech", culminating in a city (Kallipolis) ruled by philosopher-kings; and by examining the nature of existing regimes. The participants also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the roles of the philosopher and of poetry in society.

Download or read book Laws written by Plato and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-05-28 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Laws is Plato's last, longest, and perhaps, most famous work. It presents a conversation on political philosophy between three elderly men: an unnamed Athenian, a Spartan named Megillus, and a Cretan named Clinias. They worked to create a constitution for Magnesia, a new Cretan colony that would make all of its citizens happy and virtuous. In this work, Plato combines political philosophy with applied legislation, going into great detail concerning what laws and procedures should be in the state. For example, they consider whether drunkenness should be allowed in the city, how citizens should hunt, and how to punish suicide. The principles of this book have entered the legislation of many modern countries and provoke a great interest of philosophers even in the 21st century.

Download or read book Philosophy as Drama written by Hallvard Fossheim and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plato's philosophical dialogues can be seen as his creation of a new genre. Plato borrows from, as well as rejects, earlier and contemporary authors, and he is constantly in conversation with established genres, such as tragedy, comedy, lyric poetry, and rhetoric in a variety of ways. This intertextuality reinforces the relevance of material from other types of literary works, as well as a general knowledge of classical culture in Plato's time, and the political and moral environment that Plato addressed, when reading his dramatic dialogues. The authors of Philosophy as Drama show that any interpretation of these works must include the literary and narrative dimensions of each text, as much as serious the attention given to the progression of the argument in each piece. Each dialogue is read on its own merit, and critical comparisons of several dialogues explore the differences and likenesses between them on a dramatic as well as on a logical level. This collection of essays moves debates in Plato scholarship forward when it comes to understanding both particular aspects of Plato's dialogues and the approach itself. Containing 11 chapters of close readings of individual dialogues, with 2 chapters discussing specific themes running through them, such as music and sensuousness, pleasure, perception, and images, this book displays the range and diversity within Plato's corpus.
