Plato and Comedy in the Socratic Dialogues
Plato and Comedy in the Socratic Dialogues
This is the first extended examination of comic elements in Plato's Socratic dialogues. By establishing their variety and ubiquity through multiple dialogues, the chapters demonstrate that comedy is intrinsic to Plato's philosophical project, such that any understanding of his philosophy must be forever attentive to comic connections.
