This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first extended attempt to explain Plato’s ethics of natural law, to place it accurately in the history of moral theory, and to defend it against the objections that it is totalitarian. Wild provides a clarification of Plato’s ethical doctrine and a defense of that doctrine based not only of his analysis of the dialogues but on the belief that Plato must acknowledged as the founder of the Western tradition of natural law philosophy. The book begins with a presentation of the major objections raised against Plato by modern authors – Toynbee, Karl Popper and others who have condemned the so called totalitarianism of Plato’s thought. Wild answers these objections point by point and with a wealth of evidence taken from Plato’s own arguments. He then presents a historical study of the ethics of natural law, defining the theory and showing through an examination of relevant dialogues that Plato held such a theory. The work concludes with a systematic study of his realistic ethics and its bearing on contemporary problems.

Book excerpt: The Laws is Plato's last, longest, and perhaps, most famous work. It presents a conversation on political philosophy between three elderly men: an unnamed Athenian, a Spartan named Megillus, and a Cretan named Clinias. They worked to create a constitution for Magnesia, a new Cretan colony that would make all of its citizens happy and virtuous. In this work, Plato combines political philosophy with applied legislation, going into great detail concerning what laws and procedures should be in the state. For example, they consider whether drunkenness should be allowed in the city, how citizens should hunt, and how to punish suicide. The principles of this book have entered the legislation of many modern countries and provoke a great interest of philosophers even in the 21st century.

Book excerpt: The Laws is Plato's final, most extensive, and arguably most despised treatise. Three elderly men-an anonymous Athenian, a Spartan named Megillus, and a Cretan named Clinias-converse about political philosophy throughout the book. These men are drafting the laws that will govern Magnesia, a brand-new Cretan colony. The government of Magnesia is a blend of democratic and authoritarian values that seeks to create a joyful and morally upright society for all of its residents. Like Plato's other works on political theory, such as the Statesman and the Republic, the Laws also includes substantial treatments of psychology, ethics, theology, epistemology, and metaphysics in addition to political theory. The Rules, in contrast to these other writings, combine political philosophy with practicing law and go into considerable depth about the laws and procedures that Magnesia should have. Although many have attributed Plato's poor writing to his advanced age at the time of composition, readers should remember that the book was never finished. The Laws' arguments are worth our study, despite the fact that some of these objections are valid, and the dialogue has a unique literary quality.

Book excerpt: This audacious collection of modern writings on Plato and the Law argues that Plato's work offers insights for resolving modern jurisprudential problems. Plato's dialogues, in this modern interpretation, reveal that knowledge of the functions of law, based upon intelligible principles, can be reformulated for relevance to our age. Leading interpreters of Plato: Vlastos, Hall, Strauss, Weinrib, Annas, and Morrow, are included in the collection. The editor supplies an insightful introduction and extensive bibiography to the collection.

Download or read book The Republic written by By Plato and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2019-06-15 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic is a Socratic dialogue, written by Plato around 380 BCE, concerning the definition of justice, the order and character of the just city-state and the just man. The dramatic date of the dialogue has been much debated and though it must take place some time during the Peloponnesian War, "there would be jarring anachronisms if any of the candidate specific dates between 432 and 404 were assigned". It is Plato's best-known work and has proven to be one of the most intellectually and historically influential works of philosophy and political theory. In it, Socrates along with various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether or not the just man is happier than the unjust man by considering a series of different cities coming into existence "in speech", culminating in a city (Kallipolis) ruled by philosopher-kings; and by examining the nature of existing regimes. The participants also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the roles of the philosopher and of poetry in society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choice Outstanding Academic Title 2006 The existence and grounding of human or natural rights is a heavily contested issue today, not only in the West but in the debates raging between "fundamentalists" and "liberals" or "modernists in the Islamic world. So, too, are the revised versions of natural law espoused by thinkers such as John Finnis and Robert George. This book focuses on three bodies of theory that developed between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries: (1) the foundational belief in the existence of a moral/juridical natural law, embodying universal norms of right and wrong and accessible to natural human reason; (2) the understanding of (scientific) uniformities of nature as divinely imposed laws, which rose to prominence in the seventeenth century; and (3), finally, the notion that individuals are bearers of inalienable natural or human rights. While seen today as distinct bodies of theory often locked in mutual conflict, they grew up inextricably intertwines. The book argues that they cannot be properly understood if taken each in isolation from the others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1993. Not intended as a new biography of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes or as a critical study of his legal philosophy, this book’s intention is to help fill a gap in the studies of Holmes. Without denying the power with which Holmes reacted against intellectual traditions of the nineteenth century, the author hopes to show that natural law and transcendentalist philosophy formed important vital sources of his mature legal theory.

Book excerpt: Frisbee Sheffield argues that the Symposium has been unduly marginalized by philosophers. Although the topic - eros - and the setting at a symposium have seemed anomalous, she demonstrates that both are intimately related to Plato's preoccupation with the nature of the good life, with virtue, and how it is acquired and transmitted. For Plato, analysing our desires is a way of reflecting on the kind of people we will turn out to be and on our chances of leading a worthwhile and happy life. In its focus on the question why he considered desires to be amenable to this type of reflection, this book explores Plato's ethics of desire.
