The Tragic Condition of Philosophy : Plato's Apology as Tragedy
P. 95-117
- This paper argues that Plato's Apology can be read as a tragedy analogous to Oedipus Tyrannus. Jacob Howland has argued that the elements of tragedy laid out Aristotle's Poetics are present, but the relation of the Apology to Oedipus Tyrannus and other aspects of Sophocles' tragedy have not been noted. With this procedure, Plato means to argue that a philosopher should hide his refutations more than Socrates did. [Publisher's Text]
