Item description from seller

XII, 132 S. / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) - Sehr guter Zustand / Very good condition - Klappentext / Blurb: Literary form in Plato can pose considerable problems for readers. In the first part of this book, David Schur argues that the literary features of Plato's dialogueswhen treated as literarycannot be limited to a single argumentative agenda. In the second part, he demonstrates the validity of this point by considering a rhetorical pattern of self-reflection that is prominent in the Republic. He emphasizes that Plato's book consistently undermines the goal-driven conversation that it portrays. Offering a thought-provoking blend of methodological investigation and methodical close reading, Schur suggests that the Republic qualifies the authority of its conclusions by displaying a strong countercurrent of ongoing movement beyond them. -- David Schur is Assistant Professor of Classics, Brooklyn College, CUNY.
