The period from Plato's birth to Aristotle's death (427-322 BC) is
one of the most influential and formative in the history of Western
philosophy. The developments of logic, metaphysics, epistemology,
ethics and science in this period have been investigated,
controversies have arisen and many new theories have been produced.
But this is the first book to give detailed scholarly attention to
the development of dialectic during this decisive period. It
includes chapters on topics such as: dialectic as interpersonal
debate between a questioner and a respondent; dialectic and the
dialogue form; dialectical methodology; the dialectical context of
certain forms of arguments; the role of the respondent in
guaranteeing good argument; dialectic and presentation of
knowledge; the interrelations between written dialogues and spoken
dialectic; and definition, induction and refutation from Plato to
Aristotle. The book contributes to the history of philosophy and
also to the contemporary debate about what philosophy is.
