In the Platonic work "Alcibiades I," a divinely guided Socrates
adopts the guise of a lover in order to divert Alcibiades from an
unthinking political career. The contributors to this carefully
focussed volume cover aspects of the background to the work; its
arguments and the philosophical issues it raises; its relationship
to other Platonic texts, and its subsequent history up to the time
of the Neoplatonists. Despite its ancient prominence, the
authorship of "Alcibiades I" is still unsettled; the essays and two
appendices, one historical and one stylometric, come together to
suggest answers to this tantalising question.
