This valuable work of reference provides a comprehensive
bibliography on all scholarly work that was published on Plato and
Socrates during the years 1958-73. It thus forms an important
addition to Harold Cherniss's bibliography, which covered the years
1950-7. The author has sought to include all materials primarily
concerned with Socrates and Plato, together with other works which
make a contribution to our understanding of the two philosophers.
The bibliography is arranged by topic and there are
cross-references at the end of each section. The works in each
category are arranged chronologically and then alphabetically (by
author) within each year. An effort has been made to distinguish
when a book has had more than one edition and when an article has
been reprinted. Additionally the author has listed reviews of books
and dissertations as these have come to his attention.

The purpose of the conference "On Pythagoreanism", held in Brasilia
in 2011, was to bring together leading scholars from all over the
world to define the status quaestionis for the ever-increasing
interest and research on Pythagoreanism in the 21st century. The
papers included in this volume exemplify the variety of topics and
approaches now being used to understand the polyhedral image of one
of the most fascinating and long-lasting intellectual phenomena in
Western history. Cornelli's paper opens the volume by charting the
course of Pythagorean studies over the past two centuries. The
remaining contributions range chronologically from Pythagoras and
the early Pythagoreans of the archaic period (6th-5th centuries
BCE) through the classical, hellenistic and late antique periods,
to the eighteenth century. Thematically they treat the connections
of Pythagoreanism with Orphism and religion, with mathematics,
metaphysics and epistemology and with politics and the Pythagorean
way of life.
