Text of Note

This book presents a thorough study and an up to date anthology of Plato's Protagoras. International authors' papers contribute to the task of understanding how Plato introduced and negotiated a new type of intellectual practice -- called philosophy -- and the strategies that this involved. They explore Plato's dialogue, looking at questions of how philosophy and sophistry relate, both on a methodological and on a thematic level. While many of the contributing authors argue for a sharp distinction between sophistry and philosophy, this is contested by others.--Publisher's web site The Question of Methodology in Plato's Protagoras /Hallvard Fossheim -- Socrates' Sophisticated Attack on Protagoras / Knut ??gotnes -- The Treatment of Virtue in Plato's Protagoras / Hayden W.
