Self-Knowledge in Plato's Phaedrus

by Charles L., Jr. Griswold

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this award-winning study of the Phaedrus, Charles Griswold focuses on the theme of "self-knowledge". Relying on the principle that form and content are equally important to the dialogue's meaning, Griswold shows how the concept of self-knowledge unifies the profusion of issues set forth by Plato. Included are a new preface and an updated comprehensive bibliography of works on the Phaedrus.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. 293-311) and indexes.
