This volume brings together Seth Benardete’s studies of Hesiod,
Homer, and Greek tragedy, eleven Platonic dialogues, and
Aristotle’s Metaphysics. The Argument of the Action spans four
decades of Seth Benardete’s work, documenting its impressive
range. Benardete’s philosophic reading of the poets and his
poetic reading of the philosophers share a common ground, guided by
the key he found in the Platonic dialogue: probing the meaning of
speeches embedded in deeds, he uncovers the unifying intention of
the work by tracing the way it unfolds through a movement of its
own. Benardete’s original interpretations of the classics are the
fruit of this discovery of the “argument of the action.”
