While the dramatic approach to Plato's dialogues has become popular
over the last decade, little attention has been paid to the poetic
quality of Plato's writing, and the received view of Platonic
philosophy still depends on an unpoetic and largely literalist
reading of the dialogues. The authors of this volume focus on the
text of selected dialogues to identify the thread that unifies each
of them from a literary point of view. The conclusions they reach
in practicing this kind of reading are diametrically opposed to the
largest stream of Platonic scholarship and show the fallacy of
important metaphysical, epistemological, political, and ethical
positions frequently attributed to Plato.
