Plato and the Ideas: A Very Complicated Story
Series: - Brill's Plato Studies Series, Volume: 21
This collective volume, at the cutting edge of research, presents a wide range of perspectives on Plato's theory of Ideas. It features numerous authors whose main language of publication is not English, thus providing international readers access to a wide range of scholarly works not normally available to them. In this collective volume, to which a number of established scholars of international renown as well as young up-and-coming researchers have contributed, the Platonic theory of Ideas is examined from philological, historical, psychological, metaphysical and ethical viewpoints, presenting a boldly innovative hermeneutical impulse that meets the highest standards of contemporary research.
André Lanoue lectured in ancient philosophy at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, at the University of Toronto and at the Université de Montréal. His publications focus on Plato’s dramaturgy, metaphysics and on ancient religion.
