Synopsis
This volume fills a major gap in studies on Plato's dialogues by addressing the cultural and historical context of the Laws and highlighting their importance to contemporary scholarship., Readers of Plato have often neglected the Laws because of its length and density. In this set of interpretive essays, notable scholars of the Laws from the fields of classics, history, philosophy, and political science offer a collective close reading of the dialogue "book by book" and reflect on the work as a whole. In their introduction, editors Gregory Recco and Eric Sanday explore the connections among the essays and the dramatic and productive exchanges between the contributors. This volume fills a major gap in studies on Plato's dialogues by addressing the cultural and historical context of the Laws and highlighting their importance to contemporary scholarship.

    Amazing seller. Received the DVD very quickly. The DVD was as advertised (new), packed very carefully and with great care. The DVD arrived in excellent condition and available for a great price considering it's an out of print title.

    Great experience purchasing from them. The item arrived so well packed and secured that it took me around 5+ minutes just to open fully. Condition was as advertised (photos were accurate), price was exceptional, and the item was delivered ahead of schedule. I hope to be able to buy from them again!
