Publisher Comments:
In this study, Levin explores Plato's engagement with the Greek literary tradition in his treatment of key linguistic issues. This investigation, conjoined with a new interpretation of the Republic's familiar critique of poets, supports the view that Plato's work represents a valuable
precedent for contemporary reflections on ways in which philosophy might benefit from appeals to literature.
