Treat Plato with the respect he deserves,
By Ben Brewer (the Best Coast) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dialogue and Dialectic: Eight Hermeneutical Studies on Plato (Paperback)
One of the greatest intellectual injustices in the history of philosophy is the standard treatment of Plato and Platonism more broadly. Gadamer reads the dialogues as what they are--dialogues, not treatises. Carefully reading the context, mythos, and logos of the dialogues, Gadamer not only understands Plato better than the majority of 20th century thinkers, he also provides an exemplary account of what it would like to perform the kind of rigorous hermeneutics he lays out in Truth and Method (Continuum Impacts).
A must-have for anyone interested in either Plato or Gadamer--this is one of those wonderful texts is equal parts theory and commentary. |
