At the beginning of his Metaphysics, Aristotle attributed several
strange-sounding theses to Plato. Generations of Plato scholars
have assumed that these could not be found in the dialogues. In
heated arguments, they have debated the significance of these
claims, some arguing that they constituted an 'unwritten teaching'
and others maintaining that Aristotle was mistaken in attributing
them to Plato. In his previous book-length study on Plato's late
ontology, Kenneth Sayre demonstrated that, despite differences in
terminology, these claims correspond to themes developed by Plato
in the Parmenides and the Philebus. In this study, he shows how
this correspondence can be extended to key, but previously obscure,
passages in the Statesman. He also examines the interpretative
consequences for other sections of that dialogue, particularly
those concerned with the practice of dialectical inquiry.
