Socrates' Second Sailing: On Plato's Republic
Autor Seth Benardeteen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 oct 1992
When the winds fall, the sailor picks up his oars, no longer relying on help outside his own power. This “second sailing,” according to the distinguished classicist Seth Benardete, is the essence of Socratic philosophizing
In this section-by-section commentary on Plato's most important dialogue, Benardete argues that the Republic is such a self-powered, holistic analysis of the beautiful, the good, and the just. This book provides a fresh interpretation of the Republic and a new understanding of philosophy as practiced by Plato and Socrates.

Recenzii
“Cryptic allusions, startling paradoxes, new questions . . . all work to give brilliant new insights into the Platonic text.”
“This exceptionally sensitive reading of the dialogue supplies in English a commentary that pays close attention to what the dramatic action signifies for the understanding of Plato’s writing and philosophy.”
