书籍介绍
柏拉图的对话为何至今仍能让人读得津津有味？Julia Annas 给出的答案或许出乎意料：它不是一套需要背诵的教条，而是一场场没有标准答案的论辩。本书刻意避开按主题归类、逐条拆解柏拉图思想的学院派路径，而是主张回到对话本身的戏剧张力——看苏格拉底如何用追问把对手逼入矛盾，看《申辩》《会饮》《理想国》里那些看似荒诞的论断背后藏着的思想实验。读者获得的不是“柏拉图说了什么”的现成结论，而是“他为什么要这样问”的思辨训练。它适合愿意被冒犯、被绕进去、再自己爬出来的读者，不适合寻求速成哲学提纲的人。

- "For anyone who hears this, who is a true lover of wisdom,with the divine quality that makes him akin to it and worthy of pursuing it, thinks that he has heard of a marvelous request that he must at once enter upon with all earnestness, or life is not worth living; and from that time froth he pushes "
- "Diotima:"And if a thing is not wise, it's ignorant? Or haven't you found out yet that there's something in between wisdom and ignorance?" Socrates:"What's that?"

写的好有趣！
Dr. Annas is more careful than necessary. Background information, historical stories, and divergences of scholars are introduced more than what Plato says. Some important aspects of Platonism are skillfully obscured. The discussion on Forms is barely readable. In general, it is more like a booklet for scholars prepared to dig further, while I'm not

过于简略。一直用的she。
