1920R5163Peterburg: Gosudarstvennoe izdatel'stvo State Publishers 1920. Fourth edition. Hardcover. Fine. Later black cloth preserving the original illustrated wraps; pp. 156 with illustrations by Vidberg. "Within the discursive world created by the Soviet mass spectacles the event announces itself as new by virtue of its shift from the individual to the mass and the instigation of a collective subject as both the subject and object of the drama. In this way it distinguishes itself from the old 'pre-modern' society. More specifically it took the pre-revolutionary Symbolist utopias of 'ritual theatre' whose formulation was largely a response to the abortive 1905 revolution and recast their 'people' as the proletariat" Kleberg 1980 44-64. Platon Kerzhentsev's THE CREATIVE THEATRE was the most influential formulation in this direction -- his book was in its fourth edition by 1920. The October revolution had he claimed provided the social base for the realization of the ritual community valorized by the Symbolists; by the time of the fourth edition he was able to claim that "much of what seemed a utopia two years ago now appears to be on the way to becoming reality" Kleberg 1980 62. "This claim was based on the explosion of mass spectacles that had occurred in the intervening years" Smith "Meyerhold Mass Theatre and Fascism". The theory for Soviet mass spectacles. <br/><br/> Gosudarstvennoe izdatel'stvo [State Publishers] hardcover books

19932312665New York: Penguin Books 1993. Reprint. Trade Paperback. Good. Reprint. Faint crease to rear wrapper edges lightly toned. 1993 Trade Paperback. xxxi 237 pages. Translated by Hugh Tredennick & Harold Tarrant with introduction & notes by Harold Tarrant. "The trial and condemnation of Socrates 469-399 B.C. on charges of heresy and corrupting the minds of the young forms one of the most tragic episodes in the history of Athens in decline. Plato chose to set the four works of this volume despite their different subjects in the context of the events leading up to Socrates' execution. Euthyphro and Crito are typical Socratic dialogues showing the pungency of his mind in addressing the question of man's relationship with the gods and with society. The Apology is Plato's version of Socrates' speeches at his trial -- a brilliant and humorous manifesto for a life guided by self-responsibility though deliberately doomed to failure as a legal defence. In Phaedo Plato develops his own philosophy out of Socrates' calm confidence in the face of death." CONTENTS: Preface; General Introduction; Holiness -- Socrates in Confrontation: Euthyphro; Justice and Duty i -- Socrates Speaks at His Trial: The Apology; Justice and Duty ii -- Socrates in Prison: Crito; Wisdom and the Soul -- Socrates about to Die: Phaedo; Postscript: The Theory of Ideas in the Phaedo; Notes; Select Bibliography; Index.
