The book is designed to serve as a handy "starter-kit" for the
study of this work. In one volume it provides: a new English
translation of the text; a selection of illuminating articles on
themes in the dialogue published between 1965 and 1985; an
introduction setting the "Meno" in its historical context, opening
up the key philosophical issues which the various articles discuss;
and a glossary which introduces some of the key terms and indicates
how they are translated. All the articles are clearly focused on
the text and have proven their value for undergraduates studying
the "Meno". The interests of readers with little or no knowledge of
Greek are borne in mind throughout the volume. Jane Day's
translation is particularly designed to be useful to such readers
by preserving more consistency in its Greek terms than is found in
the English translations, thus providing a more reliable reflection
of the details in the original. Within the articles, too, Greek
words and phrases at various points in the original printing are
accompanied or replaced in this reprinting by a translation. The
"Meno" offers an introduction to Plato and to philosophy.
