The contributors to this carefully focussed volume cover aspects of the background to the work; its arguments and the philosophical issues it raises; its relationship to other Platonic texts, and its subsequent history up to the time of the Neoplatonists. Despite its ancient prominence, the authorship of \u003ci\u003eAlcibiades I\u003c\/i\u003e is still unsettled; the essays and two appendices, one historical and one stylometric, come together to suggest answers to this tantalising question.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Harold Tarrant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0715640860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780715640869\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol Classical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/16\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 1.10d","brand":"Harold Tarrant","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086781821183,"sku":"9780715640869","price":220.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4e0726e6-6f2e-4a28-a263-e2615e37912a.jpg?v=1769096544","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alcibiades-and-the-socratic-lover-educator-harold-tarrant-9780715640869","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
