Plato was central both to the genesis of Stoic theory and to
subsequent debates within the Stoa. These essays provide new and
detailed explorations of the complex relationship between Plato and
the Greek and Roman Stoic traditions, and together they show the
directness and independence with which Stoics examined Plato's
writing. What were the philosophical incentives to consulting and
then returning to Plato's dialogues? To what extent did Plato,
rather than Xenophon or Antisthenes, control Stoic reconstructions
of Socrates' ethics? What explains the particular focus of Stoic
polemic against Plato, and how strong is the evidence for a later
reconciliation between Plato and Stoicism? This book will be
important for all scholars and advanced students interested in the
relationship between a major philosopher and one of the most
important philosophical movements.
