Table of ContentsReviewsIvor Ludlam succeeds in unifying the Republic's multiplicity of ideas and themes, and in taming what might otherwise appear a great tangle. Ludlam's ingenious organizing principle is the correspondence between the dialogue's characters and the political types Socrates describes. Treating the dialogue's philosophical content as unfolding through its drama, this work honors Plato as a philosopher whose identity stubbornly resists submersion in that of any of the characters he limns. In the Republic, Plato is thus able to present his unique and inspiring vision of philosophy as the dialectical study of dialectic. -- Roslyn Weiss, Lehigh University Author InformationIvor Ludlam is lecturer for Latin and Greek studies at the University of Haifa.
