Description

Plato, and the Other Companions of Sokrates (Socrates) by George Grote; A New Edition; In Four Volumes; Volumes 1-4 Copyright 1885In the present Edition, with a view to the distribution into four volumes, there is a slight transposition of the author’s arrangement. His concluding chapters (38, 39), entitled “Other Companions of Sokrates,” and “Xenophon,” are placed in the First Volume, as chapters 3 and 4. By this means each volume is made up of nearly related subjects, so as to possess a certain amount of unity.Volume 1 contains the following subjects:–Speculative Philosophy in Greece before Sokrates; Growth of Dialectic; Other Companions of Sokrates; Xenophon; Life of Plato; Platonic Canon; Platonic Compositions generally; Apology of Sokrates; Kriton; Euthyphron.Volume 2 comprises:–Alkibiades I. and II.; Hippias Major–Hippias Minor; Hipparchus–Minos; Theages; Erastæ or Anterastæ–Rivales; Ion; Laches; Charmides; Lysis; Euthydemus; Menon; Protagoras; Gorgias; Phædon.Volume 3:–Phædrus–Symposion; Parmenides; Theætetus; Sophistes; Politikus; Kratylus; Philebus; Menexenus; Kleitophon.Volume 4:–Republic; Timæus and Kritias; Leges and Epinomis; General Index.The present work is intended as a sequel and supplement to my History of Greece. It describes a portion of Hellenic philosophy: it dwells upon eminent individuals, enquiring, theorising, reasoning, confuting, etc., as contrasted with those collective political and social manifestations which form the matter of history, and which the modern writer gathers from Herodotus, Thucydides, and Xenophon.Both Sokrates and Plato, indeed, are interesting characters in history as well as in philosophy. Under the former aspect, they were described by me in my former work as copiously as its general purpose would allow. But it is impossible to do justice to either of them–above all, to Plato, with his extreme variety and abundance–except in a book of which philosophy is the principal subject, and history only the accessory.CONTENTSVolume 1–Chapter 1.
