Some dialogues of Plato are of so various a character that their
relation to the other dialogues cannot be determined with any
degree of certainty. The Theaetetus, like the Parmenides, has
points of similarity both with his earlier and his later writings.
The perfection of style, the humour, the dramatic interest, the
complexity of structure, the fertility of illustration, the
shifting of the points of view, are characteristic of his best
period of authorship. The vain search, the negative conclusion, the
figure of the midwives, the constant profession of ignorance on the
part of Socrates, also bear the stamp of the early dialogues, in
which the original Socrates is not yet Platonized. Had we no other
indications, we should be disposed to range the Theaetetus with the
Apology and the Phaedrus, and perhaps even with the Protagoras and
the Laches. But when we pass from the style to an examination of
the subject, we trace a connection with the later rather than with
the earlier dialogues.
