Plato's Timaeus is one of the most influential and challenging
works of ancient philosophy to have come down to us. Sarah
Broadie's rich and compelling study proposes new interpretations of
major elements of the Timaeus, including the separate Demiurge, the
cosmic 'beginning', the 'second mixing', the Receptacle and the
Atlantis story. Broadie shows how Plato deploys the mythic themes
of the Timaeus to convey fundamental philosophical insights and
examines the profoundly differing methods of interpretation which
have been brought to bear on the work. Her book is for everyone
interested in Ancient Greek philosophy, cosmology and mythology,
whether classicists, philosophers, historians of ideas or
historians of science. It offers new findings to scholars familiar
with the material, but it is also a clear and reliable resource for
anyone coming to it for the first time.
