Synopsis
Essays On The Platonic Ethics by Thomas Maguire, LL.D., Ex S.T.C.D., Professor of Latin, Queen's College, Galway, is a scholarly collection of essays examining Plato's ethical theory as presented in the Republic, Protagoras, Meno, Gorgias, and Philebus. Maguire defends an intrinsic reading of Plato's ethics, arguing that justice and virtue arise from the internal order of the soul and the division of labour within the city as well as within the individual. The Introduction situates Plato's ethics as a rigorous framework that derives the four virtues—prudence, fortitude, temperance, and justice—from Reason directing Appetite, and treats Justice as Regularity or Division of Labour. The essays discuss how the dialogues illuminate the relation between intrinsic value and outward consequences, the distinction between being and seeming justice, and the unity of virtue across the Platonic corpus. The work reflects 19th-century Platonic scholarship, emphasizing psychology, metaphysics, and political philosophy in a systematic account of Platonic ethics.
