Socrates in the Apology : An Essay on Plato's Apology of Socrates, Hardback Book

Socrates in the Apology : An Essay on Plato's Apology of Socrates Hardback

Hardback

Description

"Reeve's book is an excellent companion to Plato's Apology and a valuable discussion of many of the main issues that arise in the early dialogues.

Reeve is an extremely careful reader of texts, and his familiarity with the legal and cultural background of Socrates' trial allows him to correct many common misunderstandings of that event.

In addition, he integrates his reading of the apology with a sophisticated discussion of Socrates' philosophy.

The writing is clear and succinct, and the research is informed by a thorough acquaintance with the secondary literature.

Reeve's book will be accessible to any serious undergraduate, but it is also a work that will have to be taken into account by every scholar doing advanced research on Socrates." --Richard Kraut, Northwestern University
