About the book
"The Clitophon, a dialogue generally ascribed to Plato, is significant for focusing on Socrates' role as an exhorter of other people to engage in philosophy. It was almost certainly intended to bear closely on Plato's Republic and is a specimen of the philosophical protreptic, an important genre very fashionable at the time. Professor Slings here provides a text based on new examination of all relevant manuscripts and accompanies it with a translation. The Commentary, the first ever to be published in English, elucidates the Greek and discusses many passages where the meaning is not entirely clear."--Jacket.
