Description
Leo Strauss on Plato's "Protagoras" is a transcript of his 1965 seminar at the University of Chicago. Edited and introduced by Robert C. Bartlett, this collection offers a unique insight into Strauss's thoughts on Plato's Protagoras. In these lectures, Strauss explores key themes in Platonic philosophy, including the distinction between Socratic and Sophistic political science, the nature of virtue, and the relationship between knowledge and freedom of thought. He also examines Protagoras and the sophists, providing a detailed discussion that relates to his other works and those of modern thinkers. This book is of particular interest to students of Plato and Strauss, offering a fresh perspective on one of the most important dialogues in the Platonic corpus.
