Written from a continental perspective, these essays reveal dimensions of Platonic texts that remain undiscovered by traditional philosophy. This collection of philosophers of Continental philosophy focuses on the dialogues' literary elements. Particular emphasis is placed on interpretations of the Platonic dialogue as a whole, which challenges contemporary philosphical assumptions. The result illustrates the inestimable depth of Platonic thought, as well as the debt of all philosophy to it.
