  9. Plato and Freud: two theories of love.Gerasimos Xenophon Santas - 1988 - New York, NY, USA: Wiley-Blackwell.
    What is love? Why do we idealize those whom we love? How do we choose whom to love? Are some kinds of love better than others? Each age returns to these questions with renewed perplexity. Gerasimos Santas examinees the two greatest theoretical architectures of love, side by side. It provides a thorough critical description and comparison of these theories, allowing a sophisticated dialogue to emerge between the two thinkers. In the first half of the book Professor Santas reconstructs and explains (...)

    Plato's antidemocratic theory of social justice is instructive once we distinguish between the abstract parts of his theory and the empirical or other assumptions he uses in applying that theory. His application may have contained empirical mistakes, and it may have been burdened too much with a prolific metaphysics and a demanding epistemology. An attempt is made to look at his theory of social justice in imaginary isolation from empirical mistakes and from his metaphysics and epistemology. It is then argued (...)

    Democracy, Justice, and Equality in Ancient Greece: Historical and Philosophical Perspectives.Gerasimos Santas & Georgios Anagnostopoulos (eds.) - 2018 - Cham: Springer Verlag.
    The original essays in this volume discuss ideas relating to democracy, political justice, equality and inequalities in the distribution of resources and public goods. These issues were as vigorously debated at the height of ancient Greek democracy as they are in many democratic societies today. Contributing authors address these issues and debates about them from both philosophical and historical perspectives. Readers will discover research on the role of Athenian democracy in moderating economic inequality and reducing poverty, on ancient debates about (...)

  25. How did Thrasymachus arrive at his account of what justice is? At first he simply announces it, but soon enough Plato tells us that it is the conclusion of an argument:“if one reasons rightly, it works out that the just is the same thing everywhere, the advantage of the stronger”(339a; Shorey trans., modified). Not as explicitly but clearly enough, we can see that Glaucon works up his contractarian account of justice by looking at the origin of justice (358c–e). Earlier, Polemarchus fetches the idea of ... [REVIEW]Gerasimos Santas - 2006 - In Gerasimos Xenophon Santas (ed.), The Blackwell Guide to Plato's Republic. Blackwell. pp. 125.
