Statesman

Viac o knihe

Plato's later dialogues exhibit a shift in focus, combining multiple subjects while showing a decline in style and dramatic engagement. In works like the Sophist and Statesman, he emphasizes method and uses distant analogies to clarify discussions. The absence of Socrates and the emergence of new philosophical challenges reflect his concern with the sophistry of contemporary schools. This marks a transition from transcendental ideas to practical reasoning, highlighting the need for clear classification and a departure from poetic influences, resulting in a more technical and satirical tone.
