Bloomsbury Handbook of Plato
Gerald A. Press (Editor), Mateo Duque (Editor)
This essential reference text on the life, thought and writings of
Plato uses over 160 short, accessible articles to cover a complete
range of topics for both the first-time student and seasoned scholar of
Plato and ancient philosophy.
It is organized into five parts
illuminating Plato's life, the whole of the Dialogues attributed to him,
the Dialogues' literary features, the concepts and themes explored
within them and Plato's reception via his influence on subsequent
philosophers and the various interpretations of his work. This fully
updated 2nd edition includes 19 newly commissioned entries on topics
ranging across comedy, tragedy, Xenophon, metatheatre, gender, musical
theory, animals, Orphism, political theory, religion, time, Hellenistic
philosophy and post-Platonic ancient commentaries. It also features
revisions to the majority of articles from the 1st edition, including 8
which have been completely re-written, and 12 which have had the
references substantially revised.
Reflecting the growing
diversity of Plato scholarship across the world, this edition includes
contributions from a wide range of scholars who enrich the field and
provide students and scholars with a vital resource for study and
reference.
