An Extremely Detailed and Helpful Commentary,
By
This review is from: The Argument and the Action of Plato's Laws (Paperback)
This commentary works step by step through to move through the text of the Laws, pointing out connections between ideas and making observations regarding curious notions as they appear in the work. Strauss does a good job of making some sense of many inconsistencies as they appear by the (at-times) inexpert Athenian Stranger character and does a good job of painting an overall portrait of the city of the Laws as we move through a long dialogue.
This is an excellent choice for a first-timer to help you approach the Laws carefully. It can be read right alongside the Laws because it follows the text in the same order of progression as the text itself. Many of the other commentaries don't have this feature. |
