Essays on the Platonic Ethics is a collection of scholarly essays written by Thomas Maguire that explore various aspects of Plato's ethical philosophy. The book delves into Plato's ideas on morality, justice, virtue, and the nature of the good life. The essays draw from a variety of Plato's dialogues, including the Republic, the Phaedo, and the Symposium, to provide a comprehensive analysis of his ethical theories. Maguire examines Plato's views on topics such as the relationship between reason and morality, the role of the individual in society, and the nature of the soul. He also explores the influence of Platonic ethics on later philosophical traditions. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient philosophy, ethics, and the works of Plato.1870. The essays found within this book on the Republic, Protagoras, Meno, Gorgias and Philebus, are taken wholly from the text of Plato. They develop views diametrically opposed to those of Mr. Grote. The opinions of the great historian are identical with the tenets, which Plato spent his life in opposing, and they exhibit modem positivism in its most improved form. The discussion is limited to the dialogues specified, as they contain all that is necessary for understanding the ethics of Plato.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
