The Platonic Alcibiades I: The Dialogue and its Ancient Reception
Renaud, Francois (Universite de Moncton, Canada)
This book captures the drama of the first ever conversation between the young Alcibiades and his lover Socrates the philosopher. The Platonic dialogue about self-knowledge brilliantly blends the erotic, religious, and educational traits of Socrates, a combination widely acknowledged by interpreters of late antiquity but often ignored by modern scholars.
