This book concentrates on the conversation between Socrates and
Gorgias which takes place in the first part of Plato's Gorgias.
Scholars have tended to concentrate on the following two
conversations held by Socrates with Polus and, especially, with
Callicles. This first, relatively short, conversation is usually
taken to be a kind of preface coming before Plato's 'real'
philosophy. The present study challenges this assumption, arguing
that the conversation between Socrates and Gorgias actually
anticipates the message of the whole dialogue, which concerns the
essence of rhetoric and its implications.
