Plato’s Republic : A Biography

Attribution
Simon Blackburn
Publication Details
Book, 1st American ed, Atlantic Monthly Press, 2007
Links
- Publisher description
Description
Plato is perhaps the most significant philosopher who has ever lived and The Republic, composed in Athens in about 375 BC, is widely regarded as his most famous dialogue. Blackburn also examines Republic?s remarkable influence and unquestioned staying power, and shows why, from St. Augustine to twentieth century philosophers such as Ludwig Wittgenstein and Henri Bergson, Western thought is still conditioned by this most important, and contemporary, of books.

Spenser’s Supreme Fiction : Platonic Natural Philosophy And The Faerie Queene

Attribution
Jon A. Quitslund
Publication Details
Book, University of Toronto Press, 2001
Description
He argues that Spenser sought authority for his poem by grounding its narrative in a divinely ordained natural order, intelligible in terms derived from the ancient sources of poetry and philosophy. In the second half, The Faerie Queene is interpreted as an unfolding pattern: the dynamic order of nature is flawed but not fallen, and seen against that background, human culture contains in its myths and images both corruptions of natural impulses and aspirations to transcend the limits imposed by mortality. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
