xv, 221 pp. Translated and with an introduction by P. Christopher Smith. “This book is a virtual case study in the application of hermeneutical principles to illuminate philosophical texts. The book contains translations of eight of Gadamer's best known essays on Plato….These studies, spanning a period of almost fifty years, are important not only for what they have to say concerning Plato, but also for what they reveal about the development and insightfulness of Gadamer's hermeneutical theory of interpretation….[He] aims at dialogue with Plato and achieves it.”―Jeremiah P. Conway, International Philosophical Quarterly.
