| Summary: | Biographical note: Ryan C. Fowler, Knox College, Galesburg, USA. Plato in the Third Sophistic examines the influence and impact of Plato and Platonism in the era of Byzantine and Christian rhetoric. The volume brings together fourteen especially commissioned articles from leading scholars of late antique philosophy and literature. Their examinations show that Plato is the single most important and influential literary figure used to frame the literature of this time. Plato in the Third Sophistic will help scholars and students from a wide range of disciplines better understand the development of Christian literature in this era as an essential link in the history of Platonism as well as that of Christianity. |
