The metaphysical basis of Plato's ethics
Originally published in 1895, this is a fascinating read and much of the information is still useful and practical today. PREFACE: The following essay is neither a systematic account of Plato's metaphysics, nor an adequate exposition of Plato's ethics. It's scope is a narrower one. It aims at clearing up the connection between the two. And, if the attempt has led me to reinterpret the metaphysical scheme that underlay the ethics of matured Platonism, my purpose throughout has been to show how intimately - and indeed vitally - the latter was connected with the former. Thus far at least I find myself in accordance with the general tendency of modern Platonic criticism.......Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
