Description
The Philosopher in Plato's Statesman Together with Dialectical Education and Unwritten Teachings in Plato's Statesman by Mitchell H. Miller
This study employs literary theory and conceptual analysis to expose the philosophical, political, and pedagogical conflict underlying Plato's dialogue, revealing a carefully harmonized act of realizing the mean.
Miller explores how the "Statesman" is the culminating expression of Plato's lifelong effort to bring metaphysical insight to the unending political crisis of his time, offering a trail-blazing approach that has significant potential for changing scholarship on late Platonic dialogues.
