"Platon (c.428-c.347 av. J.-C.) est le nom propre qui signe l'avènement de la philosophie comme telle. Y sont attachés une méthode le dialogue et, à sa suite, la dialectique, ainsi qu'un objectif : celui de fonder le savoir vrai et la conduite juste sur des principes premiers. Ontologie et déontologie trouvent là leur acte de naissance ; elles sont un discours raisonné tenu de se justifier par une argumentation rigoureuse. Prolongeant de manière personnelle la leçon éthique de Socrate, les dialogues de Platon inscrivent le Bien dans une philosophie des Idées qui s'interroge sur la teneur de la vérité, la possibilité de l'atteindre ou non par la science, la nature des erreurs dont dérivent nos errances, le statut épineux du non-être. Convaincu du fondement métaphysique de tout état de choses, Platon ouvre simultanément des réflexions sur la justice, la cité idéale, l'amour, la beauté et le plaisir, qui seront autant de cadres pour la philosophie morale et politique à venir. Le présent livre explore la cohérence de la construction platonicienne en soulignant le pouvoir qu'ont les dialogues de mettre le lecteur sur le chemin de leurs thèses et d'ouvrir l'espace argumentatif de leur discussion. Le platonisme se montre ainsi sous son meilleur jour, celui d'une philosophie en prise sur le réel.".

This book provides an interpretation of Plato's Euthydemus as a unified piece of literature, taking into account both its dramatic and its philosophical aspects. It aims to do justice to a major Platonic work which has so far received comparatively little treatment. Except for the sections of the dialogue in which Socrates presents an argument on the pursuit of eudaimonia, the Euthydemus seems to have been largely ignored. The reason for this is that much of the work's philosophical import lies hidden underneath a veil of riotous comedy. This book shows how a reading of the dialogue as a whole, rather than a limited focus on the Socratic scenes, sheds light on the work's central philosophical questions. It argues the Euthydemus points not only to the differences between Socrates and the sophists, but also to actual and alleged similarities between them. The framing scenes comment precisely on this aspect of the internal dialogue, with Crito still lumping together philosophy and eristic shortly before his discussion with Socrates comes to an end. Hence the question that permeates the Euthydemus is raised afresh at the end of the dialogue: what is properly to be termed philosophy?

Socrates' greatest philosophical contribution was to have initiated the search for definitions. In Definition in Greek Philosophy his views on definition are examined, together with those of his successors, including Plato, Aristotle, the Stoics, Galen, the Sceptics and Plotinus. Although definition was a major pre-occupation for many Greek philosophers, it has rarely been treated as a separate topic in its own right in recent years. This volume, which contains fourteen new essays by leading scholars, aims to reawaken interest in a number of central and relatively unexplored issues concerning definition. These issues are briefly set out in the Introduction, which also seeks to point out scholarly and philosophical questions which merit further study.
