Ascent to the Good: The Reading Order of Plato’s Dialogues From Symposium to Republic
Lanham: Lexington Books (2018)
Abstract
This study reconsiders Plato’s “Socratic” dialogues—Charmides, Laches, Lysis, Euthydemus, Gorgias, and Meno—as parts of an integrated curriculum. By privileging reading order over order of composition, a Platonic pedagogy teaching that the Idea of the Good is a greater object of philosophical concern than what benefits the self is spotlighted.Author's Profile
