What is Self-Knowledge in Plato's "Phaedrus" about?

"In this award-winning study of the Phaedrus, Charles Griswold focuses on the theme of 'self-knowledge.'"Determined to take every part of the dialogue seriously as a single deliberate philosophical design, Griswold analyses each episode in turn, with subtlety and much sensitivity. . . . This is a book well worth reading, and a commendable effort." Martha Nussbaum, Times Literary Supplement Relying on the principle that form and content are equally important to the dialogue's meaning, Griswold shows how the concept of self-knowledge unifies the profusion of issues set forth by Plato. Included are a new preface and an updated comprehensive bibliography of works on the Phaedrus." -- From Amazon
