In -4°, cc. 58, piena pergamena e titolo manoscritto al dorso. Frontespizio in cornice xilografica, iniziali e marca editoriale di Mazzocchi in fine. Prima edizione della traduzione in latino di quest’opera di Senofonte fatta da Bessarione (Trebisonda 1403 - Ravenna 1472), Cardinale, teologo e umanista, intorno agli anni ’40 del secolo precedente. Si presume che a scoprire il manoscritto sia stato lo stesso Giano Vitale, autore della lettera dedicatoria che apre il volume. L’opera di Bessarione contribuisce in maniera decisiva alla rivalutazione delle opere di Senofonte, autore pressoché dimenticato nel Medioevo, avvenuta nel Rinascimento, opere che forniranno, relativamente al mondo socratico, una cospicua alternativa alla rappresentazione che ne dà Platone nei suoi Dialoghi. Bellissimo il frontespizio incorniciato (riprodotto in Mortimer, “Italian 16th century books”, p. 583). Adams X-43 Title page in a xilographic frame, initials and Mazzocchi’s printer’s mark at the end. The first edition of the latin translation of this Xenophon’s work, made by Bessarion (1403-1472), a Cardinal and a humanist, in the first half of the XV century. The manuscript was probably discovered by the very Giano Vitale, author of the dedication letter at the beginning of the volume. Bessarion’s work is a crucial contribution to the revaluation of Xenophon’s work, happened in the Renaissance. A very charming title page (reproduced in Mortimer, “Italian 16th century books”, p. 583) Adams X-43

Description: " 'The Ideas of Socrates' offers a unique interpretation of the ideas forms eide in Platos writings. In this concise and accessible study Matthew S. Linck makes four major claims. Firstly the ideas as Socrates discusses them in the 'Phaedo' 'Parmenides' and 'Symposium' are shown to be integral to the person of Socrates as presented in Platos dialogues. Secondly Linck argues that if we take Platos dialogues as an integrated set of writings then we must acknowledge that the mature Socrates is perfectly aware of the difficulties entailed in the positing of ideas. Thirdly the book shows that Socrates recourse to the ideas is not simply an epistemological issue but one of self-transformation. And finally Linck examines how Socrates relates to the ideas in two ways one practical the other speculative. As the only group of Platos narrated dialogues that are not narrated by Socrates the 'Phaedo' 'Parmenides' and 'Symposium' constitute a unique collection. These three dialogues also contain accounts of Socrates as a young man and all of these accounts explicitly discuss the ideas. 'The Ideas of Socrates' serves as a commentary on the relevant passages of these dialogues and goes on to build up an explicit series of arguments about the ideas that will transform the way in which we approach these key texts. This important new book will be of interest to anyone involved in the study of Ancient Philosophy." -- with a bonus offer-- . Continuum hardcover

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY PRISTINE NEVER OPENED -- 140 pages; clean and crisp tight and bright pages with no writing or markings to the text. -- DESCRIPTION: This new translation provides a careful introduction to one of Platos most widely studied dialogues. -- -- IMPORTANT / UNIQUE FEATURE: Included is a unique series of illustrations graphically describing step by step the geometrical argument central to understanding the Meno. Extensive endnotes provide guidance to understanding the structure and content of the dialogue. -- The endnotes annotating the text of the dialogue are keyed to our new Speech numbers along with the old Stephanus numbers but without reference to those notes in the text itself to distract the reader of the dialogue. Many readers once it is understood who is talking and perhaps where and when should be able to go through this dialogue without consulting any notes except perhaps for the geometrical illustrations provided in the note for Speech 356 86E-87B and Appendix B of this volume. Thus an attempt has been made by us to permit the reader of English to come to our text much as the reader of Greek might come to Platos original text. Some of the endnotes provide elementary information about now-obscure references in the text other of them are about implications of Greek words and wordplay that no translation can convey; still others are designed to help the reader address some of the more difficult questions raised by the dialogue. The endnotes also include references to other Platonic dialogues and to some ancient and modern texts where various questions touched upon in the Meno are treated in much greater detail than it is useful to do here. More than one-fourth of the Speeches in the Meno have at least one endnote provided for them in this volume. -- AUTHORS: George Anastaplo is a Professor of Law at Loyola University of Chicago. He has published numerous wide ranging works in law philosophy and humanities. Laurence Berns is a faculty member of St Johns College Annapolis where he has enjoyed a long and distinguished career. -- with a bonus offer-- . Focus Pub R Pullins & Co paperback

Above all his translation is excellent in respect to style and clarity: really a pleasure to read." -David Konstan Brown University -- with a bonus offer-- . Focus Pub R Pullins & Co paperback
