Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. First printing. Softcover volume, measuring approximately 6" x 9", is in fine condition. xix/183 pages. "Socrates was wise, because he knew that he did not know anything; this has long been the prevailing wisdom of the Socratic-Platonic tradition. In Plato's Middle Period-spanning dialogue…s such as "Phaedo", "Symposium", "Republic", and "Phaedrus"-Socrates consistently claims to have knowledge in one area: the erotic. This book argues that the underlining of erotic matters -in what it refers to as Plato's Erotic Period-marks the most significant and dramatic moment in Plato's career. Plato's attention to the erotic in this period calls for a fundamental reassessment of many of the most important Platonic ideas: his complicated quarrel with poetry, his dubious doctrine of forms, his alleged hostility to the body and embodiment. In the Erotic Period, Plato's views are much richer, and infinitely more complex, than the many caricatures of his thought allow.".

Very good, c…lean copy. Socrates was wise, because he knew that he did not know anything; this has long been the prevailing wisdom of the Socratic- Platonic tradition. In Plato's Middle Period-spanning dialogues such as Phaedo, Symposium, Republic, and Phaedrus-Socrates consistently claims to have knowledge in one area: the erotic. This book argues that the underlining of erotic matters-in what it refers to as Plato's Erotic Period-marks the most significant and dramatic moment in Plato's career. Plato's attention to the erotic in this period calls for a fundamental reassessment of many of the most important Platonic ideas: his complicated quarrel with poetry, his dubious doctrine of forms, his alleged hostility to the body and embodiment. In the Erotic Period, Plato's views are much richer, and infinitely more complex, than the many caricatures of his thought allow. "Symposia may be Ruprecht's best book yet; it is certainly the smoothest, clearest and hardest hitting read from this remarkable Renaissance figure who has the playfulness of Zorba and the mindfulness of Socrates. "The topic is significant, its appeal enduring, and the author's take at once individual and connected to other ethicists, philosophers, and students of religious musing or metaphysicians. It has a postmodern flair without the burdensome self-preening of too much postmodern literary critical discourse. Bruce B. Lawrence, Duke University "Symposia engages the most critical and important contemporary ethical issues with profound altention to the basics. Ruprecht commands many fields with auchority."
