The significance of Plato's literary style to the content of his ideas is one of the central problems in the study of Plato. This volume presents some of the most recent scholarship on the wide range of issues related to Plato's dialogue form. The essays address general questions concerning Plato's literary style, the relation of his style to other genres and traditions in Ancient Greece, and Plato's characters and his purpose in using them.
