520 "This book has the form of a text commentary on one of
Plato's so-called Socratic dialogues, the Charmides. After
a comprehensive introduction, the commentary proceeds
closely following Plato's text, quoting sections of the
Charmides in translation, and discussing in detail the
passages quoted. The primary task of the analysis is to
track the argument, from the early definitions of
sôphrosynê (temperance) suggested by Charmides to the
deeply puzzling question whether a kind of self-knowledge
identified by Critias as 'science of science' is possible
or, conceding that it is, whether the greatly beneficial
virtue of sôphrosynê is the same thing as the 'science of
science. In parallel to the argument, the commentary also
pursues historical and literary themes, notably the
development of the characters of Charmides and Critias and
the utilisation of the historical subtext by Plato for
dramatic and philosophical purposes. The commentary tries
to pull together the different strands of the dialogue,
show how they evolve, and argue that they form an
attractive and coherent whole. The book has twelve
chapters, plus an Appendix containing a new translation of
the dialogue, a bibliography, and indices"--|cProvided by
