Description

The Protagoras is one of Plato's most entertaining dialogues. It represents Socrates at a gathering of the most celebrated and highest-earning intellectuals of the day, among them the sophist Protagoras. In flamboyant displays of both rhetoric and dialectic, Socrates and Protagoras try to out-argue one another. Their arguments range widely, from political theory to literary criticism, from education to the nature of cowardice; but in view throughout this literary and philosophical masterpiece are the questions of what part knowledge plays in a successful life, and how we may acquire the knowledge that makes for success. This edition contains the first commentary in English on the Greek text for almost a hundred years. The commentary provides the assistance with linguistic, literary and philosophical detail that will enable students and scholars to savour to the full the pleasures of the Protagoras. Book Description This book provides a commentary on the Greek text of this important work and full assistance with literary, linguistic and philosophical questions. About the Author Nicholas Denyer is University Senior Lecturer in Ancient Philosophy at the Faculty of Classics, Cambridge University, and College Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at Trinity College, Cambridge. He has already edited a book in this series, Plato's Alcibiades (2001).
