Description

"The Platonic Forms of the Platonic dialogues."—Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, author of Plato at the Googleplex

For the first time in paperback, the landmark one-volume edition of the complete writings of Plato

This classic edition of Plato’s complete writings has long been a favorite of readers. The editors, Edith Hamilton and Huntington Cairns, chose the contents from the work of the best modern British and American translators. The volume contains prefatory notes to each dialogue; an introductory essay on Plato’s philosophy and writings; and a comprehensive index with cross-references. In a new foreword, acclaimed philosopher and novelist Rebecca Newberger Goldstein describes Plato’s unparalleled importance to philosophy down to the present day, why he chose the artful form of the dialogue, and what makes this edition of his writings so special.
About Plato
Edith Hamilton (1867–1963) was perhaps the most famous and influential classicist of the twentieth century. Her bestselling Mythology remains a standard version of the stories of the ancient world. Huntington Cairns (1904–1985) was a writer and lawyer who worked at different times for the U.S. Treasury, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, and Johns Hopkins University. Rebecca Newberger Goldstein is a philosopher and novelist whose books include Plato at the Googleplex and Thirty-Six Arguments for the Existence of God.
