Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A Guide to Plato's Republic provides an integral interpretation of the Republic which is accessible even to readers approaching Plato's masterwork for the first time. Written at a level understandable to undergraduates, it is ideal for students and other readers who have little or no background in philosophy or political theory. Rice anticipates their inevitable reactions to the Republic and treats them seriously, opening the way to anappreciation of the complexities of the text without oversimplifying it.While many books on the Republic never stray far from explicating Plato's text, this work contrasts Plato's responses to perennial issues inphilosophy and political theory with those of several key subsequent thinkers. It uses engaging examples to show the continuing relevance of Plato's arguments and introduces some basic vocabulary of philosophy and political theory, going beyond terse dictionary definitions by illustrating what technical terms mean in the context of Plato's work.The author's interpretative posture is appreciative but respectfully critical of Plato's vision. Stressing the relationship betweenPlato's politics and metaphysics, Rice argues that Plato's reluctance to accept the reality and consequences of finitude accounts for much of what many readers find objectionable in his politics.Lively, relatively brief, and designed to provoke discussion in the classroom, A Guide to Plato's Republic is ideal for political theory and introduction to philosophy courses as well as other courses that assign the Republic as a primary text. An accessible interpretation of the 'Republic' for readers who lack prior preparation in philosophy or political theory. Rice contrasts Plato's responses to perennial issues with those of a few key subsequent thinkers and introduces readers to some of the technical terminology in which philosophy and political theory are still conducted.
