Inhaltsangabe

With "Plato's Progress", Ryle makes an ambitious attempt to rewrite the literary and intellectual biography of the author of the dialogues along radical new lines. His argument explores the nature of Plato's intellectual development and doctrines and the reasons there are problems with the standard interpretation of Plato's work and its impact on Aristotle. His scholarly sleuthing uncovers many genuine difficulties with the ancient evidence and traditional accepted issues surrounding Plato's philosophy. His controversial assertions include the belief that Plato's life was directly reflected in his art and that Aristotle was to a large extent ignorant of Plato's work.
