This lively and accessible introduction to Plato focuses on the philosophy and argument of his writings, drawing the reader into Plato's way of doing philosophy, and the general themes of his thinking. This is not a book to leave the reader standing in the outer court of introduction and background information, but leads directly into Plato's argument. It looks at Plato as a thinker grappling with philosophical problems in a variety of ways, rather than a philosopher with a fully worked-out system. It includes a brief account of Plato's life and the various interpretations that have been drawn from the sparse remains of information. It stresses the importance of the founding of the Academy and the conception of philosophy as a subject. Julia Annas discusses Plato's style of writing: his use of the dialogue form, his use of what we today call fiction, and his philosophical transformation of myths. She also looks at his discussions of love and philosophy, his attitude to women, and to homosexual love, explores Plato's claim that virtue is sufficient for happiness, and touches on his arguments for the immortality of the soul and his ideas about the nature of the universe.
There is a second way in which Plato uses the language of homoerotic romantic love. Most notably in the Symposium, he represents the urge to philosophical enquiry and the understanding as itself being a transformation of sexual desire. In a passage on the "ascent of love", Socrates describes how erotic urging can become sublimated and transfigured, leading the person to move beyond particular gratifications, finding satisfaction only in the transformation from individual possession to contemplation and understanding universal truths.

很棒的小册子，不是介绍而是引导。 柏拉图一面反对修辞与诗歌，坚定哲学应该严格的追求真理，但他同时又是最有文学性的哲学家之一，语言优美，文本的可读性极强。柏拉图认为知识不能被转化或传达，只能通过自己的经历去获取，但他所使用的对话形式本身极具有说服力与感染力。 作者认为这并不意味着柏拉图没有意识到自己“文学性”，而是在展示他的对话时使用了一种 detachment 的技巧，即将帕拉图本人的结论从对话中... 很棒的小册子，不是介绍而是引导。 柏拉图一面反对修辞与诗歌，坚定哲学应该严格的追求真理，但他同时又是最有文学性的哲学家之一，语言优美，文本的可读性极强。柏拉图认为知识不能被转化或传达，只能通过自己的经历去获取，但他所使用的对话形式本身极具有说服力与感染力。 作者认为这并不意味着柏拉图没有意识到自己“文学性”，而是在展示他的对话时使用了一种 detachment 的技巧，即将帕拉图本人的结论从对话中隐去，让读者本人跟随对话去思考，从而获得自己的“哲学”。而这也并不意味着柏拉图没有坚定的观点，他只是在 “坚持自己的观点” 与 “引导读者获得自己的知识” 之间找到了平衡，正如苏格拉底将自己比喻成 midwife，“we deliever other people‘s idea”.

我这个门外汉来看完还是一知半解 各个涉及的议题都有简介 知道了柏拉图不想做dogmatist以及希望留给后人亲自思考的态度 还有配有一些原文 还行
