The Guardians On Trial The Reading Order Of Platos Dialogues From Euthyphro To Phaedo William H F Altman by William H. F. Altman 9781498529518, 1498529518 instant download after payment.

Based on a conception of Reading Order introduced and developed in hisPlato the Teacher: The Crisis of theRepublic (Lexington; 2012) andThe Guardians in Action: Plato the Teacher and the Post-RepublicDialogues fromTimaeustoTheaetetus (Lexington; 2016), William H. F. Altman now completes his study of Plato’s so-called “late dialogues” by showing that they include those that depict the trial and death of Socrates. According to Altman, it is not Order of Composition but Reading Order that makesEuthyphro,Apology of Socrates,Crito, andPhaedo“late dialogues,” and he shows why Plato’s decision to interpolate the notoriously “late”SophistandStatesmanbetweenEuthyphroandApologydeserves more respect from interpreters. Altman explains this interpolation—and another, that placesLawsbetweenCritoandPhaedo—as part of an ongoing test Plato has created for his readers that puts “the Guardians on Trial.” If we don’t recognize that Socrates himself is the missingPhilosopherthat the Eleatic Stranger never actually describes—and also the antithesis of the Athenian Stranger, who leaves Athens in order to create laws for Crete—we pronounce ourselves too sophisticated to be Plato’s Guardians, and unworthy of the Socratic inheritance.
