ABSTRACT
First published in 2000. This is Volume IX of ten in the International Library of Philosophy in a series on Ancient Philosophy. Written around 1928, this book looks at Plato and his work on ethics. The author looks at ‘Dialogues’ which he handles dialectically to show how they are more connected to his obscure problems connected with his personal history and the personal evolution of his views than his other works.
