Description

This scholarly volume tracks the profound impact of Plato's Phaedrus on Western thought. Spanning two millennia, the research explores how this dialogue influenced philosophical, religious, scientific, and literary discussions from antiquity through the Renaissance. Readers will find a comprehensive history of reception, starting with Plato's earliest readers and moving through the works of the Church Fathers and Platonic commentators. The collection includes perspectives from Byzantine and Renaissance thinkers, providing a deep look at how the text shaped intellectual history. Thirteen contributions from both established and junior scholars examine the engagement with the Phaedrus by major historical figures. This work is an essential resource for those studying the evolution of ideas through the influence of figures such as Aristotle, Galen, Origen, Clemens of Alexandria, Plotinus, Augustine, Proclus, and Psellus.
