Plato's Theaetetus and Sophist are two of his most important
dialogues, and are widely read and discussed by philosophers for what
they reveal about his epistemology and particularly his accounts of
belief and knowledge. Although they form part of a single Platonic
project, these dialogues are not usually presented as a pair, as they
are in Christopher Rowe's new and lively translation. Offering a high
standard of accuracy and readability, the translation reveals the
continuity between these dialogues and others in the Platonic corpus,
especially the Republic. The supporting introduction and notes help
the reader to follow the arguments as they develop, explaining their
structure, context and interpretation. This new edition challenges
current scholarly approaches to Plato's work and will pave the way for
fresh interpretations both of Theaetetus and Sophist and of Plato's
writings in general.
