Bollingen Series LXXI.India paper and with 135 pp of Index!!

BBrthlm | Jan 22, 2007 |

A must-have philosophical text that collects all the dialogues in one edition. A similar edition with footnotes or some type of annotation would be nice, but that could likely make the volume unwieldy. Anyhow: this is where to go for the real thing. Readable translations of the some of the best thinking in the world. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0691097186, Hardcover)

All the writings of Plato generally considered to be authentic are here presented in the only complete one-volume Plato available in English. The editors set out to choose the contents of this collected edition from the work of the best British and American translators of the last 100 years, ranging from Jowett (1871) to scholars of the present day. The volume contains prefatory notes to each dialogue, by Edith Hamilton; an introductory essay on Plato's philosophy and writings, by Huntington Cairns; and a comprehensive index which seeks, by means of cross references, to assist the reader with the philosophical vocabulary of the different translators.
