misReading Plato by Matthew Clemente

This book reorients the scholarship on Plato by returning readers to his most fundamental insights, reflections on the nature of the human psyche, and the human condition.

"This collection is a fascinating set of well researched and creative essays that encourage us to rethink how we read PlatoThese authors bring together expertise in ancient and continental philosophy in engaging formats—including interviews with Kearney and Sallis, and an imagined "last dialogue" of Plato, written by David Roochnik. The volume is deeply dialogical in approach."

Marina Berzins McCoy, Professor of Philosophy, Boston College, USA
