Given its brevity, Plato's Meno covers an astonishingly wide array
of topics: politics, education, virtue, definition, philosophical
method, mathematics, the nature and acquisition of knowledge and
immortality. Its treatment of these, though profound, is
tantalisingly short, leaving the reader with many unresolved
questions. This book confronts the dialogue's many enigmas and
attempts to solve them in a way that is both lucid and sympathetic
to Plato's philosophy. Reading the dialogue as a whole, it explains
how different arguments are related to one another and how the
interplay between characters is connected to the philosophical
content of the work. In a new departure, this book's exploration
focuses primarily on the content and coherence of the dialogue in
its own right and not merely in the context of other dialogues,
making it required reading for all students of Plato, be they from
the world of classics or philosophy.
