Tallyho - The Hunt for Virtue: Beauty, Truth and Goodness: Nine Dialogues by Plato: Phaedrus, Lysis, Protagoras, Charmides, Parmenides, Gorgias, Thea - Hardcover
Form and content need to be in harmony for the proper expression of truth - and this is particularly the case when we are speaking about philosophy. This translation of Plato is the result not only of my dissatisfaction with Jowett and Cornford, but more importantly it is due to the unparalleled beauty that I discovered in Schleiermacher's translation. Those who 'know' Ancient Greek may scoff and put on airs all that they like, the reader is simply enjoined to listen in to the text and to form his or her own judgment, which translation is better at capturing the subtle nuances of Plato's spirit? There is no other text available in English that contains such a broad and fine selection of dialogues - and this selection is organized and firmly tied to Friedrich Schleiermacher and his interpretation, a translation that stands alone in Germany, a nation well known for producing great works in the field of philosophy. If you know Greek or German, read the 'original' or read Schleiermacher, if not - Tallyho!

About the Author:
Phillip Lundberg grew weary of programming computing machines one day and decided to devote a little more time to philosophy?he had already been dabbling a bit with a translation of Plato?s Parmenides. The end result, about five years later, was his first book, Tallyho ~ The Hunt for Virtue: Nine Dialogues by Plato. This translation is an attempt to re-instate Friedrich Schleiermacher?s Plato Interpretation and provide English readers with a book of dialogues that truly introduces them into this convoluted maze of ideas, a maze with a roadmap furnished by Schleiermacher. Lately Mr. Lundberg has been pursuing a better Kafka translation and his latest book, Essential Kafka, has been available since June-07. Mr. Lundberg holds a master?s degree in Philosophy from the New School for Social Research and studied extensively in Germany during his formative years, in particular at the Hegel archives in Bochum. Pictures and contact information can be gleaned from Mr. Lundberg?s website: http://www.home.earthlink.net/~ushaphil
