Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. New translation of One of Plato's major dialogues, popular because of its subject-matter- lovePhaedrus is widely recognized as one of Plato's most profound and beautiful works. It takes the form of a dialogue between Socrates and Phaedrus and its ostensible subject is love, especially homoerotic love. This new translation is accompanied by an introduction, further reading, and full notes on the text and translation that discuss the structure of the dialogue and elucidate issues that might puzzle the modern reader. One of Platoas most profound and beautiful works, "Phaedrus" takes the form of a dialogue between Socrates and Phaedrus, an amateur rhetorical enthusiast, on the topic of passionate or romantic love. Concerned with establishing principles of rhetoric, it argues that rhetoric is only acceptable as an art when it is firmly based on the truth inspired by love, the common experience of true philosophic activity. It is in this dialogue that Plato employs the famous image of love as the driver of the chariot of souls.

First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" As New. // 'Rapp begins with a question posed by the poet Theodore Roethke: 'Should we say that the self, once perceived, becomes a soul?' Through her examination of Plato's Phaedrus and her insights about the place of forgetting in a life, Rapp answers Roethke's query with a resounding Yes. In so doing, Rapp reimagines the Phaedrus, interprets anew Plato's relevance to contemporary life, and offers an innovative account of forgetting as a fertile fragility constitutive of humanity.

In early manhood an admirer of Socrates, he later founded the famous school of philosophy in the grove Academus. Much else recorded of his life is uncertain; that he left Athens for a time after Socrates' execution is probable; that later he went to Cyrene, Egypt, & Sicily is possible; that he was wealthy is likely; that he was critical of 'advanced' democracy is obvious. He lived to be 80 years old. Linguistic tests including those of computer science still try to establish the order of his extant philosophical dialogs, written in splendid prose & revealing Socrates' mind fused w/ Plato's thought.In "Laches", "Charmides", & "Lysis", Socrates & others discuss separate ethical conceptions. "Protagoras", "Ion", & "Meno" discuss whether righteousness can be taught. In "Gorgias", Socrates is estranged from his city's thought, & his fate is impending. The "Apology" (not a dialogue), "Crito", "Euthyphro" & the unforgettable "Phaedo" relate the trial & death of Socrates & propound the immortality of the soul. In the famous "Symposium" & "Phaedrus", written when Socrates was still alive, we find the origin & meaning of love. "Cratylus" discusses the nature of language. The great masterpiece in 10 books, the "Republic", concerns righteousness (& involves education, equality of the sexes, the structure of society, & abolition of slavery). Of the 6 so-called dialectical dialogues "Euthydemus" deals w/ philosophy; metaphysical "Parmenides" is about general concepts & absolute being; "Theaetetus" reasons about the theory of knowledge. Of its sequels, "Sophist" deals w/ not-being; "Politicus" w/ good & bad statesmanship & governments; "Philebus" w/ what is good. The "Timaeus" seeks the origin of the visible universe out of abstract geometrical elements. The unfinished "Critias" treats of lost Atlantis. Unfinished also is Plato's last work of the 12 books of "Laws" (Socrates is absent from it), a critical discussion of principles of law which Plato thought the Greeks might accept. Of a dozen other extant dialogs & also some letters a few may be genuine. Six other extant dialogs have been rejected as spurious since ancient times. The Loeb Classical Library edition of Plato is in twelve volumes. * The LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY is the only existing series of books, which, through original text & facing English translations, gives access to all that is important in Greek & Latin literature. * SHIPPING: We carefully wrap, label & custom-package this Excellent Loeb Classic for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL w/ rates for expedited domestic delivery & international shipment available upon request.
