Reading Platooffers a concise and illuminating insight into the complexities and difficulties of the Platonic dialogues, providing an invaluable text for any student of Plato's philosophy. Taking as a starting point the critique of writing in thePhaedrus- where Socrates argues that a book cannot choose its reader nor can it defend itself against misinterpretation -Reading Platooffers solutions to the problems of interpreting the dialogues. In this ground-breaking book, Thomas A. Szlezak persuasively argues that the dialogues are designed to stimulate philosophical enquiry and to elevate philosophy to the realm of oral dialectic. | Reading Plato by Thomas A.
