Plato in Renaissance England (Hardcover, 1995 ed.): S. Jayne Plato in Renaissance England (Hardcover, 1995 ed.)
S. Jayne
R2,915 Discovery Miles 29 150 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book offers a radical reappraisal of the reputation of Plato in England between 1423 and 1603. Using many materials not hitherto available, including evidence of book publishing and book ownership, together with a comprehensive survey of allusions to Plato, the author shows that the English were far less interested in Plato than most historians have thought. Although the English, like the French, knew the `court' Plato as well as the `school' Plato, the English published only two works by Plato during this period, while the French published well over 100 editions, including several of the complete Works. In England allusions to Plato occur more often in prose writers such as Whetstone, Green, and Lodge, than in poets like Spenser and Chapman. Sidney did take his `Stella' from Plato, but most English allusions to Plato were taken not directly from Plato or from Ficino, but from other authors, especially Mornay, Nani-Mirabelli, Ricchieri, Steuco, and Tixier.

Federal Food Safety Working Group - Progress & Assessments (Paperback): Richard S Jaynes, Selena Darlington Federal Food Safety Working Group - Progress & Assessments (Paperback)

American consumers deserve to trust the safety of the food they purchase for themselves and their families. While we enjoy one of the safest food supplies in the world, it requires constant monitoring. We need to be able to rapidly identify and address risks to our food supply as a result of new disease agents, new food technologies, changes in U.S. demographic and dietary patterns, and an abundance of food imports resulting from an increasingly globalised food supply. The federal government has taken important steps to protect an increasingly complex food supply. In March 2009, President Obama created the Food Safety Working Group (FSWG), a central coordinating mechanism for the federal government's food safety activities that is led by the Department of Health and Human Services and the USDA. This book provides an overview of the progress and assessments of the Federal Food Safety Working Group with a focus on results oriented goals and performance measures for food safety oversight.
