Plato: Statesman (Classical Texts Series) (Ancient Greek Edition)

Until now no English translation existed of the Statesman (one
of Plato's central works on politics, and on much else besides)
which was both accurate and usable: nor was there a modern
commentary which would help the reader through the argument,
which was, in some parts, likely to be inaccessible without a
guide. This new edition fills both gaps, being aimed especially,
like other volumes in the Aris &Phillips series of texts, at
students and other readers with little or no knowledge of the
original language. This dialogue is of interest to philosophers
and students of political theory as well as to classicists. Greek
text with facing translation, notes and introduction.
