Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plato's Best Thoughts: Compiled From Prof. Jowett's Translation of the Dialogues of Plato These quotations are not to be regarded as giving, in every case, the proper views of Plato, or even of Socrates. Other characters, opposed and refuted, are made to speak. Their words are here given to be read and received as germs of thought, and stimulants to inquiry in the reader, even as they were first written by Plato, rather than as expressions of his own opinions. Many fine passages have been necessarily omitted with regret, because their introduction here would swell this volume beyond the dimensions designed for the ordinary reader. Every theme, therefore, upon which Plato dilates, has not been presented in full. But there has been such a selection as may give the reader a fair idea of his diversity of thought. While those who are able to purchase, and desirous to peruse the complete translation of Prof. Jowett, will doubtless do this, yet there are many others to whom this volume will be welcome, as giving them the finest wheat of Plato in a ready, readable form, at a moderate rate. Even the possessor and reader of the fuller work may be glad to have with him a compendium of Platonic thought so available, - because alphabetical, - for cursory perusal and casual quotation. It is hoped, at least, by the compiler, that these limited morsels of Plato's Hymettian honey will excite the desire for a fuller feast from the rich banquet which Prof. Jowett has so laboriously and sumptuously provided for those who relish true thought and elegant language, whether coming from ancient or modern thinkers. The design at first was to interweave the choicest paragraphs of this Translator from his learned and thoughtful Introductions, but it was found that this would have made too large a book.

Book excerpt: Benjamin Jowett's translations of Plato have long been classics in their own right. In this volume, Professor Hayden Pelliccia has revised Jowett's renderings of five key dialogues, giving us a modern Plato faithful to both Jowett's best features and Plato's own masterly style. Gathered here are many of Plato's liveliest and richest texts. Ion takes up the question of poetry and introduces the Socratic method. Protagoras discusses poetic interpretation and shows why cross-examination is the best way to get at the truth. Phaedrus takes on the nature of rhetoric, psychology, and love, as does the famous Symposium. Finally, Apology gives us Socrates' art of persuasion put to the ultimate test--defending his own life. Pelliccia's new Introduction to this volume clarifies its contents and addresses the challenges of translating Plato freshly and accurately. In its combination of accessibility and depth, Selected Dialogues of Plato is the ideal introduction to one of the key thinkers of all time.
