One of the leading scholars and academic administrators of his
time, Benjamin Jowett (1817-1893) was Master of Balliol College as
well as Regius Professor of Greek and, for a time, vice-chancellor
at Oxford University. Along with his achievements in the area of
academic reform, Jowett is remembered for this four-volume
translation of Plato's dialogues. Characterising Plato as the
'father of idealism', Jowett reminds readers that while 'he may be
illustrated by the writings of moderns ... he must be interpreted
by his own, and by his place in the history of philosophy'. In this
first volume, he includes fourteen early and middle dialogues such
as Charmides, Apology, Crito, and Phaedo, each presented with a
separate editorial introduction. Jowett's work represents a
towering achievement in the field of classical and philosophical
studies that had important influence on the subsequent study of
Plato.
