Excerpt from The Theaetetus of Plato: A Translation With an Introduction

The Introduction has a twofold object. It seeks to give Plato's portrait, account, and criticism of Prota goras and his followers, and at the same time it serves as an outline of one large and important section of Plato's own philosophy. Indeed, owing to Plato's peculiar method, if it succeeds in the first it does the second also. In the closing pages of the Introduction reference is made to the final form of Plato's thought, with the view of indicating how far it was moulded by his long and arduous encounter with Sophistry.
