Drew A. Hyland, one of Continental philosophy's keenest interpreters of
Plato, takes up the question of beauty in three Platonic dialogues, the
Hippias Major, Symposium, and Phaedrus. What Plato
meant by beauty is not easily characterized, and Hyland's close
readings show that Plato ultimately gives up on the possibility of a
definition. |
