    The Phaedo: a Platonic labyrinth.Ronna Burger - 1984 - South Bend, Ind.: St. Augustine's Press.
    Since antiquity the Phaedo has been considered the source of "the twin pillars of Platonism" -- the theory of ideas and the immortality of the soul. Burger's attempt to trace the underlying argument of the work as a whole leads to a radical rethinking of the status of those doctrines.

    Eros and Mind.Ronna Burger - 2019 - Epoché: A Journal for the History of Philosophy 23 (2):365-380.
    While Plato and Aristotle both recognize the importance of friendship and love, Aristotle seems to be as much the philosopher of philia as Plato is of eros. Aristotle’s extensive discussion of friendship in the Nicomachean Ethics includes only a few scattered remarks about eros. Following the thread of those remarks, however, uncovers a movement from the disparagement of eros, contrasted with friendship of the virtuous, to its elevation as the shared experience of philosophic friendship. In the quite different context of (...)

    The eccentric core: the thought of Seth Benardete.Seth Benardete & Ronna Burger (eds.) - 2016 - South Bend, Indiana: St. Augustine's Press.
    This volume is a tribute to the thought of Seth Benardete by contributors who had the rare good fortune of studying with him or those who discovered the treasure of his writings. Benardete was fully immersed in the world of the ancients, starting with Homer, but their works opened up for him a way to the fundamental questions-about justice and love, nature and law, human and divine. Finding "the problem of the human good grounded in the city, and the problem (...)

    Is Each Thing the Same as Its Essence?: On "Metaphysics" Z.6-11.Ronna Burger - 1987 - Review of Metaphysics 41 (1):53 - 76.
    BOOK Z OF THE METAPHYSICS is generally held to contain Aristotle's most comprehensive investigation of what we have come to call essence. One might reasonably be led back to that text, then, by the recent renewal of interest in essentialism, more particularly, by the debate about the merits of "Aristotelian essentialism." This is the label Quine employed in objecting to the doctrine--which he thought quantified modal logic was compelled to accept--that objects have, independent of our ways of specifying them, necessary (...)

    Nature, law, and the sacred: essays in honor of Ronna Burger.Ronna Burger & Evanthia Speliotis (eds.) - 2019 - Macon, Georgia: Mercer University Press.
    This collection of essays, presented in honor of Ronna Burger, addresses questions and themes that have animated her thinking, teaching, and writing over the years. With a view to the scope of her writings, these essays range broadly: from the Bible and Ancient Greek authors--including not only Plato and Aristotle, but also Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Xenophon--to medieval thinkers, Maimonides, Dante, and Boccaccio, as well as modern philosophers, from Descartes and Montesquieu to Kant, Lessing, Hegel, and Kierkegaard. Moving in order (...)

    The Archaeology of the Soul: Platonic Readings in Ancient Poetry and Philosophy.Ronna Burger & Michael Davis (eds.) - 2012 - St. Augustine's Press.
    The Archaeology of the Soul is a testimony to the extraordinary scope of Seth Benardete's thought. Some essays concern particular authors or texts; others range more broadly and are thematic. Some deal explicitly with philosophy; others deal with epic, lyric, and tragic poetry. Some of these authors are Greek, some Roman, and still others are contemporaries writing about antiquity. All of these essays, however, are informed by an underlying vision, which is a reflection of Benardete's life-long engagement with one thinker (...)

    The Thumotic Soul.Ronna Burger - 2003 - Epoché: A Journal for the History of Philosophy 7 (2):151-167.
    In book IV of the Republic, Socrates offers an analysis of the tripartite structure of the soul as a perfect match-up to the class structure of the city. But the deeds that produce those speeches reveal the fixed relation among three independent parts to be the result of a dynamic process of self-division. This self-division is the work, more specifically, of thumos or spiritedness, which first cuts reason from desire, then separates itself from each in turn. By following this “plot,” (...)

    Holiness and Justice. [REVIEW]Ronna Burger - 1983 - Review of Metaphysics 37 (1):156-157.
    To his gratification, Jerome Eckstein admits, his previous book on Plato's Meno "was more warmly received by artists, novelists, and cooks" ; he has not abandoned that audience in this study of Plato's Phaedo, which is inspired, nevertheless, by a desire "to convince a few more professors." The Deathday of Socrates does not, however, in Platonic fashion, address a variety of readers on different levels through the same words; instead it is divided into parts, some of which are intended to (...)
