All disciplines can count on a noble founder, and the
representation of this founder as an authority is key in order to
construe a discipline's identity. This book sheds light on how
Plato and other authorities were represented in one of the most
long-lasting traditions of all time. It leads the reader through
exegesis and polemics, recovery of the past and construction of a
philosophical identity. From Xenocrates to Proclus, from the
sceptical shift to the re-establishment of dogmatism, from the
Mosaic of the Philosophers to the Neoplatonist Commentaries, the
construction of authority emerges as a way of access to the core of
the Platonist tradition.
