ABOUT THIS BOOK
Three classic Platonic dialogues in the most authoritative translation available
Theaetetus is the first of a trilogy of Platonic dialogues that show Socrates formulating his conception of philosophy as he prepares the defense for his trial. This translation is particularly faithful to the original Greek, and it is accompanied by an introduction, extensive notes, and comprehensive commentary that puts the dialogue in context with Plato's thought and its influence over the centuries.
Seth Benardete (1930-2001) was professor of classics at New York University.
